One of the main priorities of knowledge management researchers is motivating people for sharing their knowledge. Although some believes that knowledge is the power, it seems that knowledge has now power on its own but what make it powerful is that part which share among people.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the role of social capital and behavior control as influencing factors on tacit knowledge sharing of staff. Data was collected using a close questionnaire. According to literature, a model was designed and tested to indicate the effect of staff tacit knowledge sharing among work groups, social capital view, and behavior control. Finally, results from SEM and regression analysis showed that social capital has positive effects on tacit knowledge sharing intention through the affect based-trust, shared value, and internal control variables. Tacit knowledge sharing intention, on tacit knowledge sharing behavior is greater when external control is higher in compare with internal control.
