Abstract
Knowledge sharing has been recognized as a key enhancement of supply chain performance. However, the sharing of knowledge may not take place easily and automatically among the supply chain partners. This study attempts to shed some light on the mechanisms underlying knowledge sharing in supply chains. In particular, we focus on knowledge sharing in a dyadic buyer-supplier relationship. We posit that trust and power are two important antecedents of two types of knowledge sharing between a buyer and its supplier, namely technical exchanges and technology transfer. A large scale mail survey was conducted in Singapore to test our research model. © 2011 IEEE.
