Abstract

The objectives of this paper were to study the different relationships between different types of knowledge sharing and academics' creativity and found these results- 1) Intergenerational Knowledge Sharing (IGKS) positively related to academics' creativity. 2) peer-to-peer knowledge sharing (PPKS) positively related to academics' creativity. 3) online knowledge sharing has a stronger influence on creativity than offline knowledge sharing. 4) Regardless of the communication method used, the positive impact of intergenerational knowledge sharing on academics' creativity is stronger than peer-to-peer knowledge sharing.
