Motivation, Knowledge Transfer, and Organizational FormsMargit OsterlohProfessor of Management Science; Professor (em.) University of Zurich Bruno S. FreyCREMA; Behavioural Science; Economics November 1999 IEER Working Paper No. 27 Abstract: Employees are motivated intrinsically as well as extrinsically. Intrinsic motivation is crucial when tacit knowledge in and between teams must be transferred. Organizational forms enable different kinds of motivation and have different capacities to generate and transfer tacit knowledge. Since knowledge generation and transfer are essential for a firm's sustainable competitive advantage, we ask specifically what kinds of motivation are needed to generate and transfer tacit knowledge, as opposed to explicit knowledge.
