ABSTRACT

Based on the resource based view(RBV) theory, this study investigated the structural relationships among social capital, knowledge sharing, service innovativeness, and business performance in the hotel industry. It also examined the mediating role of service innovativeness which plays in between knowledge sharing and business performance. Data were collected from 338 employees of 13 five star tourist hotels in Seoul and structural equation modeling was employed to test the structural model and hypotheses. Results showed that all the three dimensions of the social capital made significant effects on the knowledge sharing. Result also supported the partial mediating role of service innovativeness. Theoretical and managerial implications were also discussed.
