    Building Corporate Knowledge and Competence Communities - Dynamic Capabilities of a Firm

    This paper aims to explore the link between strategic management and knowledge management in order to facilitate our understanding of dynamic capabilities. Based on an in depth case study of a Fortune 500 company, our findings suggest that, first, there are limitations to use the theoretical framework of the resource-based view (RBV) to explain the phenomenon under investigation, and second, that knowledge sharing routines can persevere as a dynamic capability, i.e. the dynamic utilization and deployment of corporate knowledge. We suggest a view of the firm as a dynamic knowledge and competence community, where each corporate member's competences and tacit knowledge are shared and competence and knowledge gaps can be closed by the frequent recombination of knowledge and human resources.
