Authors: Suhad Hasan Abdallah Awawdeh & Bassam Yousef Ibrahim Banat

 

The study aimed at investigating the knowledge management among Palestinian employees at governmental and non-governmental organizations. Knowledge management was evaluated using an index of a 20-item scale that was administrated to three hundred and thirty-seven employees in governmental and non-governmental organizations in the southern part of West Bank, Palestine. The data were statistically analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). The findings revealed that employees experienced a high level of knowledge management. The results demonstrated significant statistical differences in the knowledge management scores among the employees due to their gender and organizational authority. However, no statistical significant differences were found in the rest of the study variables. Practical implications were drawn based on the findings.

 

Keywords: Knowledge management, governmental and non-governmental organizations, Palestine.
