Email-free collaboration: An exploratory study on the formation of new work habits among knowledge workers
作者:
Highlights:
• The potential of social-collaboration technologies seriously questions email usage in organizations.
• This research investigates the role played by the notion of habit in influencing the relationship between perceived positive attributes about a social collaboration platform and employee knowledge sharing capability.
• A theoretical model is developed and tested through a quantitative case study methodology.
• Habit moderates the relationships between perceived attributes (relative advantage, perceived ease of use, and compatibility to a lesser extent) and knowledge sharing.
• When studying IT adoption/acceptance in the context of disruptive technologies, the link between perceptions, intention, and behavior is more complex than thought.
