From the author: Research on organizational knowledge indicates that the level of an organization's complex knowledge determines its capability to continuously innovate and remain competitive. Since individuals are often the originators of organizational knowledge, interpersonal complex knowledge sharing becomes a significant organizational process. An important issue in this process is the presence of trust, which facilitates complex knowledge sharing between individuals. In view of that, this study investigates the role of trust in knowledge sharing between individuals within a team setting. With data analysis results, this article shows how affect-based trust and cognition-based trust affect complex knowledge sharing between individuals working within teams.
