Antecedents of knowledge management practices: case of Malaysian practitioners

In this paper, we investigated the knowledge management (KM) behavior of executives in Malaysia who work in different sectors and involved in Information Technology (IT) related fields. We proposed a conceptual framework based on the Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA) and the Theory of Planned Behavior...
