At least three imperatives are classified as different rationales related to knowledge sharing research.First, organizational culture is considered a key element of effective knowledge sharing activities [11]. According to McDermott and O’Dell [14], in organizations with a knowledge sharing culture, employees share ideas and insights because they see it as natural, rather than as something they are forced to do.
