I've been reviewing paper regarding tasks, teamwork and ICTs within these few weeks. Then I further develop my International Business research to associate with the concept of 'knowledge transfer' within MNCs under two dimensions, which are 'geotemporal boundaries and contextual distance 'and 'different levels of organisation network (nodal, dyadic and systemic levles)'.
Since my data resources provide an insightful understanding of individual behaviour, I could inspect the micro-foundation of knowledge sharing/learning during the process of knowledge transfer. Lately, I try to find a strategy to develop a 'codebook' to analyse my data resource from the theories. I study how Polanyi (1966) distinguished 'tacit knowledge' (or 'implicit') and 'explict knowledge', and then, adopt the concept of knowledge creation by Nonaka (1994) to review the four processes, which are: socialisation, combination, internalisation and externalisation.
In addition, Castillo's (2002) four dimensions of tacit knowledge (non-epistle, social-cultural, semantic and sagacious tacit knowledge) and Nonaka's (1994) concepts of knowledge creation help in understanding the mechanisms of knowledge transfer. The understanding of knowledge characteristics helps me analyse my data. It seems that I capture a vague idea to develop my codebook. I still need to find a way to present this work and write down sensible justification to convince the reader .
Well, it seems that I still need to do loads of thinking and work before writing a well-structured proposal. At least, Paul is happy with my progress and excited about this fashion study regarding how I could use a proper micro-foundation study to analyse the data resources. Although I wish I could develop my ideas within 3 days, I have to tell myself, 'be patient' all the time.
