In the face of intensifying environmental challenges and rapid digital transformation, startups are increasingly expected to pursue sustainable development while navigating severe resource constraints and the inherent liability of newness typical of emerging ventures. Although existing literature acknowledges the critical role of Green Knowledge Management (GKM) in driving corporate sustainability, significant theoretical gaps remain. Prior [...]

The rapid diffusion of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) is deeply transforming knowledge‑intensive work, thanks to its ability not only to automate repetitive tasks but also, and more importantly, to enhance workers’ capabilities for creating new knowledge. This is particularly evident in creative sectors where novelty is critical and new knowledge is continuously generated to provide [...]

As knowledge work becomes more digital and distributed, organizations increasingly rely on two levers to sustain knowledge management (KM) performance: Artificial Intelligence (AI) to expand what KM systems can do and gamification to strengthen why people contribute and reuse knowledge. Yet prior research rarely specifies how AI and gamification are jointly organized across KM subfields, [...]

The emergence of the latest generations of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) systems, particularly ChatGPT, has prompted knowledge management (KM) scholars to investigate how these tools can be effectively integrated into organizational KM systems. However, as this field of study is in its infancy, the literature remains scarce and provides fragmented results. Empirical evidence is especially [...]

The recent significant developments in Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI) have contributed to renewing the interest of knowledge management (KM) scholars in Artificial Intelligence. In fact, the latest GAI tools, like ChatGPT or CoPilot, can process extremely large and varied sets of unstructured data and perform different tasks, such as classifying data, reading and writing texts, [...]

The use of Enterprise Social Media (ESM) platforms is rapidly diffusing in the business context, as they are increasingly considered crucial for the future competition. In particular, as commonly underlined by scholars, ESM can bring substantial benefits to companies and especially to their knowledge management (KM) processes. However, such benefits can materialize only if the [...]

The use of Communities of Practice (CoPs) to support knowledge sharing and collaboration within organisations has been increasing over the years. Today, many different companies from various sectors are deliberately resorting to CoPs to better managing cognitive assets and improving business performance. In particular, the availability of the new web-based technologies, like for example Enterprise [...]
