Tell Starcraft what you're thesis is about.

Then he will make it ALLLL better.

 

 I'm researching what factors contribute to knowledge sharing between internal and external consultants. This foloowing my internship at a consultancy. If you are familiair with the subject - I've already gone into the social capital model of Nahapiet and Goshal (1998) and coupled this to Alexopoulos and Monks' coupling with HRM (2004).

Though I don't know anything about consultancy knowledge sharing, I have done a substantial amount of work on social capital.  IF you wanted to go further down that road, there is all sorts of research freely avaliable through google documenting 50 years of advancement in social capital theory (primarily from the USA) that can easily be applied to many situations.

Possible factors to look at include trust, mutual benefit, security etc...

 

Well, most of my sources are American so that shouldn't be a problem. As for those factors, Nahapiet and Goshal got most covered:

My conclusion basicly is that the 9 dimensions mentioned re not enough as there is still a lot of supportive and facilitating work to be done. But if you have more sources then please do share.

Super_Et. thanks for the advice, will try after dinner.
