Tiivistelmä: | The aim of this article is to extend social capital approaches to knowledge transfer by identifying governance mechanisms that managers can deploy to promote the development of social capital. Three governance mechanisms are identified: market-based, hierarchical and social mechanisms. The findings, based on data from two Danish multinational companies (MNCs), suggest that although the use of social governance mechanisms promote positive assessment of social capital, hierarchical governance mechanisms constrain its development. The application of market-based governance mechanisms has no significant effect. Besides, the findings provide evidence that social capital has a positive impact on knowledge transfer. |
