Assessing antecedents of individual readiness to adopt knowledge management in higher educational institutions

Artikel

Higher education institutions (HEIs) are profoundly vested in knowledge-based endeavors. It emphasizes creating a knowledge-based atmosphere and recognizing knowledge as an intellectual capital. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the role of factors such as top management support, the perceived degree of collegiality, and organizational culture (OC) in fostering trust among members of HEIs and enabling individual readiness for knowledge management (KM). The faculty members affiliated with India's HEIs provided the data for this study. At AMOS, data was analyzed using EFA, CFA, and SEM. The present study suggests that perceived collegiality and organizational culture are crucial for increasing faculty members' trust in their own preparedness for implementing knowledge management in higher education institutions. This paper determined that to promote and enhance institutional KM activities, it is crucial that individuals' trust is encouraged. The findings of the study are relevant for policymakers, practitioners, and service recipients at HEIs. In addition, the results contribute a novel model to the field of knowledge administration in the higher education sector.
