Abstract

This research study examines the impact of knowledge exchange practices on professionals in the health care sector in Chennai.  In recent years, organizations have all encountered the challenge of enhancing the rate at which knowledge is shared. Therefore, in order to prevent them, it is critical for any organization to identify the primary causes of health care professionals' absences. This study emphasizes the correlation between knowledge sharing and the management practices that facilitate knowledge sharing.  As independent variables, knowledge management practices including knowledge creation, knowledge capture, and knowledge storage are considered here.  Sharing of knowledge has been designated as the dependent variable. A convenience sampling technique was employed to select a sample of 250 employees who agreed to partake in this survey.  The descriptive design of research is utilized.  The health care professional provided responses to a questionnaire used to collect Primary Data.  Utilizing descriptive statistics, correlation, and regression analysis, the gathered data are examined.  The findings of the study indicate that knowledge practices significantly influenced healthcare professionals' knowledge sharing.
