Abstract

The present research is aimed at exploring the link between corporate ethical values (CEV) and knowledge sharing behavior (KSB) by building and empirically examining a CEV-KSB model. The goals of the current research were multi-fold. The study was aimed at understanding the impact of CEV on organizational commitment and KSB. The effect of organizational commitment on KSB was also examined. Using a sample of 250 employees of the hotel industry in the Pakistan, a structural model was tested. It was hypothesized that CEV would be positively related to organizational commitment and KSB. Moreover, it was also hypothesized that commitment partially mediates the link between CEV and KSB. All the hypotheses were accepted. Limitations and implications of the study are also discussed.
