Abstract

Knowledge hiding behavior among employees was found to not only harm employees but also the organization as a whole. A review of literature showed that knowledge hiding behavior is influenced by individual and situational factors related to organization. The present study examines the relationship between perceived politics and knowledge hiding behavior among employees working team. Specifically, this study hypothesized both direct relationships between perceived politics and knowledge hiding behavior, and indirect relationship between the two variables via relationhip conflict. Structural Equation Modeling was employed to analyze the survey data collected from 339 academicians who are working in research projects in team. The results showed significant direct effect of perceived politics on knowledge hiding behavior, and indirect effect through relationship conflict as the mediator. Theoretically, this study contributes to the existing literature by expanding the utility of the conservation of resource theory in explaining knowledge hiding behavior at the workplace.
