摘要

知识管理在创新过程和企业竞争力中起着举足轻重的作用。为了产生创新,企业可以从不同的来源获取知识,包括其内部和外部环境。然而,要充分吸收这些知识并将其应用于商业目的,企业需要吸收能力(AC)。交流对跨国公司尤其重要,因为它们面临着全球竞争加剧以及地理、制度和文化差异所带来的学习挑战。考虑到这一点,我的论文探讨了知识管理机制与创新和绩效结果之间的关系,以及吸收能力在这种关系中的促进作用。研究结果表明,跨国公司管理者可以使用不同的机制来获取、转移和应用知识,从而提高公司吸收知识的能力,进而导致产品和/或工艺创新。

Knowledge Management Mechanisms at MNCs and the Enhancing Effect of Absorptive Capacity
Knowledge management has a pivotal role in innovation processes and on firms’ competitiveness. In order to generate innovations, firms may access knowledge from different sources, including their internal and external environments. However, to fully assimilate such knowledge and apply it to commercial ends, firms need absorptive capacity (AC). AC is particularly important for multinational corporations (MNCs), as they face several learning challenges arising from increased global competition as well as geographic, institutional, and cultural differences. With this in mind, my dissertation explores the relationship between knowledge management mechanisms and innovation and performance outcomes as well as the enabling role of absorptive capacity in such relationships. The findings show that MNC managers can use different mechanisms for souring, transferring, and applying knowledge, which increase the firm´s ability to absorb knowledge and, in turn, lead to product and/or process innovation.
