Abstract

Managing knowledge plays a significant role in the delivery of success in different organisations. Hospitality and hotels are not far from this. However, assessing the effectiveness of practicing knowledge management in hotels and despite vital for such sector, seems not deeply searched in some emerging economies such as the case of Qatar. This paper aims to fill in this void in the literature by developing and empirically analyse a model exploring if 'faults' exist while practicing knowledge management in hotels in Qatar. Such faults would result in gaps in knowledge which would seriously affect this industry. After examining results from more than 300 hotels in Qatar, findings show that discrepancies would be statistically significant while developing a knowledge management thematic strategy in the Qatari hotels.

调查酒店业实施知识管理的有效性：以卡塔尔为例

在不同的组织中，管理知识在取得成功方面发挥着重要作用。酒店业和酒店业离这不远。然而，评估在酒店实施知识管理的有效性，尽管这对该行业至关重要，但在卡塔尔等一些新兴经济体中，似乎并没有深入研究。本文旨在通过开发和实证分析一个模型来填补文献中的这一空白，该模型探讨了卡塔尔酒店在实施知识管理时是否存在“错误”。这些失误将导致知识空白，严重影响该行业。在研究了卡塔尔300多家酒店的结果后，研究结果表明，在卡塔尔酒店制定知识管理主题战略时，差异在统计上具有显著意义。
