International Journal of Knowledge Management Studies (IJKMS), Vol. 15, No. 2, 2024

Abstract: This research paper explores the implementation of a knowledge sharing platform culture to enhance individual and group capabilities in organisations, emphasising the vital role of knowledge management (KM) in fostering innovation, sustainability, and competitiveness. Focused on the integrated steel industry, the study identifies six key factors influencing innovative culture: management objectives, strategic perception, brainstorming sessions, innovative process design, innovation culture, and knowledge sharing. Spanning from 2001 to 2024, the research establishes a comprehensive framework for widespread KM adoption. Utilising the Delphi Technique, the study validates the framework, confirming KM's substantial impact on identifying factors contributing to innovative culture. Crucial factors shaping both KM and innovation within the organisation include management goals, strategic viewpoints, brainstorming sessions, innovative process design, fostering an innovation culture, and promoting knowledge-sharing culture.
