International Journal of Learning and Intellectual Capital (IJLIC), Vol. 1, No. 2, 2004

Abstract: We examine the link between knowledge accumulation and knowledge articulation and the subsequent development of dynamic capabilities by focusing on the links between employee training activities, use of teams, and capabilities in small to mid-size manufacturing firms. Results indicate that different bundles of training activities are associated with the dynamic capabilities of operational efficiency, innovation, and marketing and that the use of teams fully or partially mediates the majority of the relationships between these training activities and firm capabilities.
