Thereafter, it identifies the gaps and provides directions for further research. However, there is a need for more insight into the firms perspective on the involvement of students and Ph.D.s in research partnerships (Thune 2009), as most research discusses the academic perspective only. The importance of social capital (trust and tie strength) has been confirmed for academic engagement (Amabile et al. Fear for a lack of common interests is reduced by building social capital, which includes, tie-strength, and collaboration experience with the particular partner (Pinheiro et al. Over the past decades, research into academic engagement increased. PubMedGoogle Scholar. Barnes, T., Pashby, I., & Gibbons, A. (Department of Finance and General Business. Design and the management of multi-institutional research collaborations: Theoretical implications from two case studies. Ambiguity and the process of knowledge transfer in strategic alliances. 2023 Springer Nature Switzerland AG. The majority of the papers focuses on development and transfer of knowledge by the academic partner. Navigating the grounded theory terrain. Part 1. Research Technology Management, 1087 0 obj <>stream Daghfous, A. 2011; Harryson et al. Coordination is often effected informally between project managers from both sides (Barnes et al. 36(3), 316339. Resultantly, the conclusions we draw about the relation between different factors require more research. This paper describes the history and current state of the charter school movement, presents a conceptual model of the charter school system, and reviews the extant research on charter school . In collaborations with low engagement the firm is seen as data source, while all research activities are controlled and conducted by the academic partner. A classic approach avoids a pre-study literature review to minimise preconceptions and emphasises the constant comparison method, while the Straussian and constructivist approaches focus more on the beneficial aspects of an initial literature review and researcher reflexivity. In practice, the role of the industrial partner in data analysis and theory development is limited, even in deep collaborations. For each of the three topics we identified we will discuss the theoretical insights, their implications and the associated practices for successful knowledge transfer. 0000016479 00000 n When there are large differences between organizational cultures, it is more likely that organizations have different research goals and possibly also different knowledge backgrounds. Tacit knowledge transfer requires interaction to develop competence (Johnson and Johnston 2004) and more direct collaboration (Alexander and Childe 2013; Azevedo Ferreira and Rezende Ramos 2015; Daghfous 2004; Gertner et al. In this review we discuss which theoretical frames could deepen our understanding of universityindustry (UI) knowledge transfer, identify barriers and facilitators of knowledge transfer and use a practices perspective to identify ways to deal with these barriers. Using extant literature, this paper explores these underdevelopment and entrepreneurship issues to create an integrated solution towards bridging the human, social, and economic development gap. McCabe, A., Parker, R., & Cox, S. (2016). The extant literature provides examples of adolescent dialect use for comparison as well. 20(7), 595623.

Little attention has been paid to the practices required to build trust or the effect of trust on knowledge transfer specifically. (2000) and Hagedoorn (2002) concluded that there was a lack of research into transfer channels other than commercialization. We therefore included literature that discussed these factors, but also other forms of relational capital. Second, there is a fear that academic partners, unintentionally, share sensitive knowledge with other companies, due to a lack of experience with handling sensitive knowledge (Ulhi et al. Analytical framework of knowledge transfer success in academic engagement. Secondly, trust is mainly researched in quantitative research in relation to general collaboration success. (2006). 1 May 2023. Overview of the Literature Review Process and Steps. 2016; Mesny and Mailhot 2007; Plewa et al. Bringing together this literature on knowledge transfer enabled us to develop a stylised model that shows how different characteristics of knowledge transfer relate in the context of academic engagement (Fig. When letters make sounds that aren't associated w One goose, two geese. Therefore, tie strength improves trust (Al-Tabbaa and Ankrah 2016; Plewa et al. Knowledge that has these characteristics is hard to identify, understand and transfer (ibid.). =FHu$ktrksWw=SA>=TAecWvpXd$84*]vS L0dR'QL')t4V3Le*WM ?ESAPbY{OslJ>=X_^y9|>akE%Xm|Q{7nJYwY?,I4Sv-R~,gt]31)qSEi_\WazUX@8Y[,jlLc_D|,U*2Tz1F2ac?z~]UU=*|V=&t+~j!kw[Hk) This is also confirmed by the papers in our review, which show a very informal management style, based on high levels of trust. [George] Lucas' brain teemed with plots and characters, exotic creatures, worlds to be spun out of the words and sketches in his notebooks. The economic benefits of publicly funded basic research: A critical review. The relevance of ambiguity and absorptive capacity in the context of UI collaboration was confirmed by Santoro and Bierly (2006). 26(12), 163171. Research Policy, Henny J. van der Windt. Journal of Management Studies, Finally, the study highlights the lessons that growing FinTech firms and their regulators can learn from the experiences of their counterparts across the globe. 2015). . There seems to be agreement on the importance of general collaboration experience, organizational capabilities, and experience with the particular partners for overall collaboration success (Buganza et al. 2013b; Ulhi et al. 2015). Reflecting on the challenges of choosing and using a grounded theory approach. During the collaboration knowledge is best transferred through rich, meaningful, direct and bilateral interaction, especially when tacit knowledge is involved. Administrative Science Quarterly, 0000189372 00000 n (2008) and literature that discussed such differences was therefore included. First, industrial partners fear that the academic partner is not working on the same goals, due to institutional differences, and that academics use the industrial partner as money cow (Al-Tabbaa and Ankrah 2016; Pinheiro et al. Universitiesindustry collaboration strategies: A micro-level perspective. 2013b; Philbin 2008; Sherwood and Covin 2008; Steinmo 2015). This scoping review aims to survey and synthesize the extant literature on intergenerational trauma in Latinxs, the ways that the literature conceptualizes and operationalizes intergenerational trauma, and the mechanisms of transmission that it proposes. ture This thesaurus page includes all potential synonyms, words with the same meaning and similar terms for the word extant literature. STANDS4 LLC, 2023. Creating creative chaos in interactive sessions provides a way to learn autonomic and recombine the new insights with previous knowledge, which facilitates absorption (Johnson and Johnston 2004). 2016). Extant. Merriam-Webster.com Dictionary, Merriam-Webster, https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/extant. Inter- and intra-organizational knowledge transfer: A meta-analytic review and assessment of its antecedents and consequences. This paper aims to undertake a thematic review of academic papers on financial technology (FinTech) to identify three broad categories for the purpose of classifying extant literature. A complicating factor here is that differences in goals are often not recognized in the early, honeymoon, stage of a collaboration, they become clear during the engagement phase (Estrada et al. Correspondence to Extant literature identified knowledge differences and differences in goals resulting from different institutional cultures as important barriers to knowledge transfer. Higher Education, Pinheiro, M. L., Pinho, J. C., & Lucas, C. (2015). 2012; Wang and Lu 2007). 0000135970 00000 n This thematic paper divides FinTech into three themes, i.e. Such knowledge is often transferred through contractual agreements, like patents (Alexander and Childe 2013; Sandberg et al. 2013b). Aim: 2016). (2010). 2011; Morandi 2013). While conducting our review we encountered some problems in our search process. Frequent meetings in the initiation stage also help to merge goals, keep them aligned and increase trust (Plewa et al. The Journal of Technology Transfer, 0000122894 00000 n Background: Also, there seems to be agreement that secondment, employee exchange and hiring graduates are important ways to transfer the tacit aspects of knowledge in both directions. Knowledge transfer through rich, or interactive, media is preferred over indirect communication through reports, presentations, patents and so forth, as the latter are unable to transfer tacit knowledge (Alexander and Childe 2013; Sandberg et al. The governance of university knowledge transfer: A critical review of the literature. 2011; Hadjimanolis 2006; Wang and Lu 2007). qbl=[P1\Gu6/a *y.lm*9;]/7!6k 5 ne*~1W'm$= T&;zDqp!q6GsF6>{GQUb#N`M>WR:ekR'U}gcc8A]&$iGCT"O^hl;+% (2012) focus specifically at the knowledge contribution of the industrial partner. What is needed to build trust also depends on the collaboration stage. The purpose of this study is to conduct a systematic review of the extant literature of workplace spirituality (WPS) in a manner that helps us trace its emergence in management practices in the past twelve years and to identify the gaps to be addressed by researchers in near future., A two-step screening process was followed to extract the . Technovation, be extrapolated from extant literature because, as we discuss in Section II, the literature does not agree whether auditors are punished or rewarded for GAAP-related failures. Liyanage, S., & Mitchell, H. (1994). Bercovitz, J., & Feldmann, M. (2006). 23(5), 487521. There remains discussion about the extent to which cultural differences actually affect collaboration in practice. Azevedo Ferreira, M. L., & Rezende Ramos, R. (2015). (2006). 2011; Morandi 2013).

Therefore, the role of experience to mitigate knowledge differences remains unclear. Research Policy, trailer (2010) found that experience and academic convergence reduces differences. ^,O^bT RaJqlxar7[Kpk['fr Lg!&W$~$UU2bOxr}!a)F@~P^._Up/DQ0@xl9mGBF)%2?81S GC+- Federal government websites often end in .gov or .mil. Wang, Y., & Lu, L. (2007). The paper summarizes lessons that could be of significance for FinTech users, producers, entrepreneurs, investors, policy designers and regulators. Journal of Knowledge Management, The open and interactive mode of communication in this kind of meetings gives industrial partners the possibility to engage more and feel more comfortable about giving input (McCabe et al. 35(1), 128152. (2002). Yet, we believe this difference taps into a broader debate, on the governance of university knowledge transfer, presented by Geuna and Muscio (2009), who argue that UI collaborations have a more informal irrational management style than is often assumed.

For When 'Lowdown Crook' Isn't Specific Enough. The main purpose of a review article is to critically analyse the extant literature in a given research area, theme or discipline, identifying relevant theories, key constructs, empirical methods, contexts, and remaining research gaps in order to set a future research agenda based on those gaps. A more structured approach is required which distinguishes between the effects of single attributes of cultural differences and their effect on collaboration success and knowledge transfer. Our framework and the factors found by van Wijk et al. 1998; Santoro and Gopalakrishnan 2001). This could be due to incoherence in terminology at all levels; from terminology to indicate the form of engagement to the factors and theoretical frames that are used to discuss knowledge transfer. HHS Vulnerability Disclosure, Help How can failure and success of knowledge transfer be explained? We found that research into knowledge transfer in academic engagement is dispersed. While Muscio and Pozzali (2013) and Morandi (2013) found that more experience in interaction with firms does not change the perception of cognitive distance.

Gerkema, Glendonbrook Institute for Enterprise Development, Loughborough University London, London, UK, You can also search for this author in These forms of interaction have been referred to as academic engagement or academic partnership (Perkmann et al. 2016) and providing data and insight in the application context (Barnes et al. The possibility for interactive discussion for the coordination of goals is important to keep industrial and academic expectations aligned (Johnson and Johnston 2004). A study by Daghfous (2004) indicated that prior knowledge was only significant in case of high uncertainty about the organizational aspects for the implementation of the new knowledge. They result in differences in language and different logics regarding what methods should be used. Novice researchers considering grounded theory methodology will become aware of the contentious issue of how and when extant literature should be incorporated into a study.

You may be able to access teaching notes by logging in via your Emerald profile. [Challenges of the grounded theory approach to a novice researcher]. Tsai, W., & Ghoshal, S. (1998). Trust is positively influenced by tie strength and shared goals, and negatively by ambiguity and organizational differences. Trust in UI collaboration is affected by two things. Researchers benefit from the interaction with industry as well, as it can inspire new research directions and provides additional funding (DEste and Perkmann 2011). They found that all four steps of the knowledge creation cycle (socialization, externalization, combination and internalization) were needed in the initiation phase, to formulate relevant research questions and goals, and in the knowledge transfer phase, to absorb tacit knowledge. This complicates collaboration because different languages, opinions, social behaviours, norms and beliefs make the interpretation of behaviour and knowledge more difficult (Lane and Lubatkin 1998; Mowery and Shane 2002; Simonin 1999).
