EFFECTS OF TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERSHIP ON TACIT KNOWLEDGE SHARING OF SOFTWARE ENGINEER: MEDIATING ROLES OF TRANSACTIVE MEMORY SYSTEM AND TURNOVER INTENTION

Abstract

With the economic recovery, employees' turnover intention will increase accordingly. Employee turnover will affect the loss of tacit knowledge, which is very important to the organization. Therefore, it is of great significance to study how to maintain tacit knowledge in the organization. From this perspective, this paper focuses on the impact of employee turnover intention on tacit knowledge. This research on tacit knowledge sharing helps scholars to re-examine knowledge sharing based on knowledge management theory from different angles. This study uses the transformational leadership factors and transactive memory system factors in leadership theory to expand the research of tacit knowledge sharing. The results show that turnover intention and transactive memory system play an intermediary role between transformational leadership and tacit knowledge sharing. This study contributes to the theory of knowledge management. This study has practical significance for organizations that pay attention to knowledge management to retain tacit knowledge.
