Information culture and its influences in knowledge creation: Evidence from university teams engaged in collaborative innovation projects

作者:

Highlights:

• We confirmed the existence of two dominant information culture profiles, as hypothesized by Choo (2013).

• The rule-following culture is represented by most of the teams studied. This result indicates that the information culture of the teams is influenced by the information culture of the organizations in which these teams are connected.

• Teams with a higher number of members – as well as multidisciplinary teams – were identified with a relationship-based culture.

• Results also showed plausible relationships between the risk-taking culture and externalization of knowledge; the rule-following culture and the combination of knowledge; result-oriented culture and internalization of knowledge; and the relationship-based culture and socialization of knowledge.
