چکیده مقاله :
هدف این تحقیق ارائه رویکردی جامع برای ارزیابی اثرات مجموعه اقدامات مدیریت دانش بر عملکرد سازمانی سه شرکت از زیر مجموعه های تحت پوشش شرکت پتروشیمی ملی ایران که اقدام به اجرای مدیریت دانش نموده اند می باشد. برای تحقق این امر از رویکرد کارت امتیازی متوازن استفاده و فرضیه های تحقیق بر مبنای تأثیر اقدامات مدیریت دانش بر چهار دیدگاه این رویکرد یعنی یادگیری و رشد، فرآیندهای داخلی، مشتری و مالی بنا نهاده شده است. براساس بررسی ادبیات موضوع عوامل اصلی اجرای موفقیت آمیز مدیریت دانش و شاخص های عملکرد سازمانی در قالب این چهار دیدگاه شناسایی و عناصر هر یک از این عوامل تعیین و در قالب یک پرسش نامه در میان مدیران و کارشناسان شرکت های تابع پتروشیمی ایران توزیع شد. پایایی پرسش نامه در دو بخش اقدامات مدیریت دانش و عملکرد با استفاده از آلفای کرونباخ محاسبه و اعتبار ساختاری سازه ها بر اساس تجزیه و تحلیل عاملی اعتبارسنجی شده است. در نهایت بر اساس فرضیه های تحقیق و با استفاده از مدل سازی معادلات ساختاری اثرات مجموعه اقدامات مدیریت دانش بر عملکرد سازمانی مورد بررسی قرار گرفته است. نتایج حاصله حاکی از اثر مثبت و معنادار (اگرچه ضعیف) مجموعه اقدامات مدیریت دانش بر عملکرد کلی سازمان بوده است. این تأثیر تنها بر بعد یادگیری و رشد معنادار بوده و در خصوص سایر ابعاد معنادار نبوده است.همچنین از آنجایی که سازه های مشتری و مالی بر روی یک عامل بار شدند با عنایت به ماهیت شاخص های این دو سازه این دو سازه دیدگاه دینفعان در نظر گرفته شده و نام گذاری شدند. .
This study aims to present a holistic approach regarding an evaluation of knowledge management (KM) practices on organizational performance of the subsidiary firms of Iran National Petrochemical Company (INPC). In this study balanced scorecard approach (BSC) has been employed and the research hypotheses were raised based on the four perspectives of this approach, namely customer, growth and learning, internal processes, and financial. By literature, critical success factors (CSFs) of KM and organizational performance along with their items were identified in the framework of BSC’s perspectives. Based on these constructs and their items an instrument was designed and distributed among managers and employees of the surveyed organizations. Reliability of the instrument was calculated by Chronbach’s alpha for the two sections of the instrument i.e. KM practices and organizational performance. Also, using factor analysis the construct validity of the questionnaire was approved. Finally, based on the hypotheses of the study and using structural equation modeling the impacts of KM practices on organizational performance were investigated. The results revealed that KM practices positively and significantly (though weak) impact overall organizational performance.This impact is significant only regarding growth and learning dimension and on the other dimensions is insignificant. Also, as the customer and financial constructs were loaded on one factor based on the entity of their indicators we considered these two constructs as stakeholders construct.
