Abstract

HR practices;intention to share knowledge;R&D teams;self-interest;transformational leadership climate
The purpose of this study was to empirically examine the roles of transformational leadership (TFL) climate and HR practices in influencing the relationship between self-interest and employees' intention to share knowledge from a multilevel perspective. Results supported the hypotheses that TFL climate and self-interest were associated with employees' intention to share knowledge. TFL climate increased this intention partially by mitigating the negative impact of self-interest. Further, the results indicated that HR practices such as team-based job design and knowledge-sharing incentives moderated the relationship between self-interest and the intention to share knowledge.
