Sharing Knowledge as the Bridge to Achieve Flourishing Inner Wellbeing: Literature Review

Abstract

The study on the influence of sharing-knowledge behaviour is often linked with the ability of innovation, sustainability, and performance. This paper, using literature review approach tries to reveal the relation between sharing-knowledge behaviour and flourishing inner well-being. The findings of this paper are based on the analysis and interpretation of previous research studies using literature review approach. The result of literature review indicates that research on sharing knowledge behaviour is still limited on the intention to share and some antecedents which affect them. There are few empirical researches that link sharing behaviour and outer variable so it can emerge an integrative sharing knowledge model. This paper is based on literature studies already existed today that can be reached by the writers. So there is possibility that there are some literatures out of the writers reach which are not covered in the analysis. The previous research has not raised the need hierarchy theory where the highest need is self-actualization as the impact of sharing knowledge behaviour. It has motivated this study to explore flourishing inner well-being variables so that it needs to be studied empirically as variables that are influenced by the behaviour of sharing knowledge
