Research on Knowledge Management Capabilities   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #139 of 447 |
Hello everyone,
 
I am a doctoral candidate at the Graduate College of Management of the Southern Cross University (SCU) in Australia. As part of the course, all candidates are required to undertake a research project that examines a significant issue relating to business.
 
The issue I am investigating is the relationship between a firm’s knowledge management capability and competitive advantage particularly in respect of small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) in Australia. In today’s dynamic turbulent market place, knowledge management has emerged as a powerful weapon for organisations to remain competitive. While SMEs critically contribute to the economic growth of a country, this study will attempt to provide business executives with useful insights on how the firms need to be effectively managed for their overall knowledge management capability to achieve, leverage, exploit, and sustain a competitive advantage.
 
The questionnaire of this online survey should be filled out by the senior executives of SMEs who are knowledgeable of their organisation’s knowledge infrastructure and process capabilities as well as its competitive advantage. Completion of the survey is voluntary and you may withdraw at any time without consequence by closing the internet browser. Data collected is anonymous, strictly confidential and will be kept in a secure place.
 
If you are willing to participate, please read the attached file (Participant Information Sheet) for further details and complete the questionnaire before 27th August by clicking on the following web link to take you to the survey:
 
 
Please answer all questions. Your assistance in completing the survey is greatly appreciated. If you would like to receive a summary of the research results when it is available, please send me a requesting email to the address given below.
 
The ethical aspects of this study have been approved by the SCU Human Research Ethics Committee. The approval number is ECN-07-108. If you have any complaints or reservations about any ethical aspect of your participation in this research, you may contact the Committee through the Ethics Complaints Officer, Ms. Sue Kelly (phone: 02.6620.9139, fax: 02.6626.9145, email: skelly@...). Any complaint you make will be treated in confidence and you will be informed of the outcome.
 
Thank you very much for your time and I do look forward to your participation.
 
Kind regards,
