Abstract

This study aims to highlight the importance of knowledge management and the factors influencing its implementation within the public sector organizations in Dubai. This study provides a clear understanding of the concept of knowledge management in the public sector and the ability of these sectors to collect and preserve knowledge, knowledge management. This requires the development of knowledge to review and strengthen their strategies to collect document and disseminate their workforce knowledge in order to achieve better institutional performance and to ensure that the knowledge of outstanding expertise and competencies remains within the institution even after leaving their sources for the organizations. Data were collected by distributing questionnaires to 215 systematic randomly sampled respondents from seven public departments. Data collected were analyzed by using descriptive and inferential statistics. It was found that all the independent variables were significantly related to organizational performances. The multiple regressions analysis showed that all the predictor variables contributed 55.5 percent towards the organizational performances of the public departments in Dubai. The research implication and suggestion were discussed at the end of the paper.
