In the context of knowledge management, strategy refers to the organizational intention and enabling condition for organizational knowledge creation (Nonaka and Takeuchi, 1995).
King (2001) observed that knowledge management strategy focuses on the acquisition, explication, and communication of mission-specific professional expertise that is largely tacit in nature to organizational participants and contexts in a manner that is focused, relevant, and timely.
Given the growing significance of contingency factors in strategy research (Ginsberg and Venkatraman, 1985), there exists a major research gap in accounting for the impact of moderating factors on the relationship between knowledge management and firm strategic performance.
