| Summary: | As this is result of the transfer of knowledge, most studies on
this subject have considered the implementation of
organizational knowledge as a positive result and as the end
of the transfer process; internalization as active adoption of
knowledge has seldom been investigated. This is assuming
that it is only when knowledge is internalized by the recipient
company that the transfer process really becomes effective
and incorporated into organizational routine. The aim of this
paper is propose a theoretical framework using
internalization as the variable to analyze the effectiveness of
the knowledge transfer process. For this, a comprehensive
literature review was conducted that resulted in the
identification of important variables that moderate the
internalization: the disseminative capacity and the absorptive
capacity. Moreover, this article proposes an analysis of
internalization from a multidimensional perspective,
considering the appropriation of knowledge and time taken
to internalize as extension factors of knowledge
internalization. |
