摘要

本文旨在研究知识型企业中知识增强型人力资源实践、知识资本和可持续竞争优势之间的关系。受访者来自伊朗的知识型企业。采用便利抽样法在 157 家企业中抽取了 320 名管理人员。研究结果研究证实,知识提升型人力资源(HR)实践与知识资本建立了非常紧密的联系。研究结果进一步揭示了知识资本与企业竞争优势之间的正相关关系。研究的局限性/启示这项研究是在伊朗的知识型企业中进行的,这限制了研究结果的普遍性。因此,今后的研究应在其他背景下进行。此外,由于研究是横截面的,因此无法直接推断因果关系。 本文强调了知识资本在改善知识增强型人力资源实践和企业竞争优势方面的重要性。原创性/价值本研究的结果试图解释知识资本作为一个中介变量如何影响知识提升型人力资源实践与可持续竞争优势之间的关系,从而推动知识资本文献的研究。

Knowledge-enhancing HR practices and sustainable competitive advantage: the mediating role of intellectual capital in knowledge-based firms

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to examine the relationship between knowledge-enhancing HR practices, intellectual capital and sustainable competitive advantage in knowledge-based firms.

Design/methodology/approach

A quantitative approach was used to conduct the present study. The respondents were sampled from knowledge-based firms in Iran. Overall, 320 managers in 157 firms were selected using convenience sampling. A structural equation model was employed for testing the hypotheses.

Findings

The study confirmed that knowledge-enhancing human resource (HR) practices established a very strong connection with intellectual capital. The results further disclosed a positive relationship between intellectual capital and firms' competitive advantage. A mediated relationship between knowledge-enhancing HR practices and firms' competitive advantage through intellectual capital was also affirmed.

Research limitations/implications

The study was conducted in knowledge-based firms in Iran, which limits the generalizability of the research findings. Therefore, future studies should be carried out with samples from other contexts. Moreover, as the study was cross-sectional, the causal relationships could not be inferred directly.

Practical implications

The paper underscored the importance of intellectual capital in improving knowledge-enhancing HR practices and firms' competitive advantage. It suggests to human resource managers to make the organizational arrangements to design knowledge-enhancing HR practices, thereby developing the intellectual capital that brings competitive advantage to knowledge-based firms.

Originality/value

The results of this study contribute to advance research on the intellectual capital literature by trying to explain how intellectual capital as a mediator variable can influence the relationship between knowledge-enhancing HR practices and sustainable competitive advantage.
