Retaining Knowledge, Human, and Intellectual Capital

Abstract

Knowledge retaining has become a demandable concept that many studies investigated which their findings confirmed its importance to enhance the organizational productivity and performance. In addition, the organizational knowledge contains many aspects including the economic knowledge (i.e., intellectual capital), and the individual skills and experiences (i.e., human capital), where the latter is a component of the first. Although many studies have adopted each concept, few studies have directly linked their relation which the present study aims to provide. Through representing the previous related studies that applied different methodological approaches, the findings confirmed the significant relation between knowledge retaining, intellectual capital, and human capital.
