Abstract:Real-time longitudinal survey and interview data are used to assess explicit and tacit knowledge flows within a small manufacturing company for an indispensable employee (IE). Then those flows are compared to the flows for a replacement employee (RE) who took over after the IE became ill. As was expected, it was found that 1) explicit and tacit knowledge outflows to coworkers were greater for the IE than for the RE, and 2) tacit knowledge inflows from coworkers were slightly greater for the RE than for the IE.
