─ There is a general acceptance that Knowledge Management Systems (KMS) are a primary source of value and have taken a center stage in the definition, operation and performance of most business organisations. However, their use within the manufacturing sector in developing countries remains inconsistent. This article investigated the role of KMS in enhancing the export performance of firms operating within the manufacturing sector in Zimbabwe. The study used a quantitative approach in which a survey questionnaire was distributed to 555 managers drawn from 185 manufacturing firms based in Harare. Data analyses involved the use of descriptive statistics, Spearman correlations and regression analysis. The results of the study showed that combined IT/social driven KMS exerted the greatest impact on export performance. The availability of both information technology centered and social centered KMS influences export performance by improving the firm's export strategy, export commitment, export orientation, export growth, export sales, export profits and export market share.

The value and importance of knowledge, as seen by numerous organizations today, play a crucial role in the current ever-challenging and aggressive business environment. As a result, businesses that aspire and strive to be labelled as being successful and competitive need to seek and find better ways to improve their firms’ performance. Hence, Knowledge Management (KM), which is viewed as a source of sustainable competitive advantage, has attracted the attention of various companies all over the business world, including Small and Medium-Size Enterprises (SMEs) Managing knowledge is a critical capability for small to medium‐sized enterprises (SMEs) to master because it helps them leverage their most critical resource.

Knowledge is identified as a very important component of organization core competency. It reduces the amount of time spent in looking for the information and subject matter expertise. The Knowledge management can extract the employee knowledge and convert it into organization's knowledge for future benefit of the organization. Organizational knowledge is the sum and product of individual knowledge. The employee opinion on knowledge management system (KMS) practices tools and processes in a bank is highly needed to understand the challenges in implementation of it in the bank and to develop strategies for the strengthening the KMS in banks. This article focuses the employee opinion on importance, awareness, strategy, infrastructure, technology, resources, practices, constraints on KMS in a private sector commercial bank, ICICI bank. Through survey research and factor analysis the determinants of the KMS in banks are obtained as knowledge development factor, technological factor, knowledge resource factor, knowledge management initiative factor and HR practices factor. Using the regression analysis the relationship between the general opinion of employees in the bank on KMS and the determinants of KMS implementation is studied. The employee perception towards constraints on effective implementation of KMS and suggestions for strengthening the KMS in the bank are also discussed. Through the study it is observed that all determinants have a positive impact on participation of employee in the KMS implementation in the bank. This study provides the Indian commercial banks a bench mark for effective and efficient implementation of KMS.

This paper aims to examine the views of the global knowledge management (KM) community on the research area of KM and business performance and identify key future research themes. An interview study spanning 222 informants in 38 countries was launched to collect data on KM expert views concerning the future research needs of the KM field. The value contribution of KM requires more research despite experts agreeing on the complexities involved in solving this challenge. Further research areas identified were related to the influence of KM to support business strategy, intellectual capital, decision-making, knowledge sharing, organizational learning, innovation performance, productivity and competitive advantage. The sample is dominated by European-based KM experts and the self-selecting sampling approach that was used by relying on the networks of each partner could have biased the structure of this sample. The recognition of the complexity to demonstrate the value contribution of KM...
