Culture and intellectual capital management: a key factor in successful ICM implementation
Article Abstract:
Studies have revealed that culture plays a major role in whether intellectual capital management (ICM) information remains proprietary or is disseminated to a larger audience. Intellectual capital (IC) has been defined as knowledge that has been transformed into something of use to an organization. ICM deals with identification of the dynamic conversion of knowledge into IC. A survey of case studies of six companies has been conducted and its findings have indicated that both national culture and organizational affect the implementation of ICM.
