Abstract
This study investigates the impact of Knowledge Management (KM) processes on organizational performance within Saudi Arabian service organizations. It focuses on knowledge creation, capture, sharing, and application, and examines their effects on quality, operational, and innovation performance. Using a quantitative methodology with 605 responses from Saudi service sector managers, the study finds that knowledge sharing has a non-significant effect, while knowledge creation, capture, and application significantly impact performance. Specifically, knowledge application significantly improves operational performance, while knowledge creation influences quality and innovation performance. The study offers recommendations for enhancing KM processes in Saudi Arabian service organizations.
