Abstract
Examines knowledge sharing in business environments and cultures that are hostile to knowledge sharing, focusing on knowledge sharing as it relates to individual behavior. Looks at knowledge hoarding, apprehension about failures, and the not invented here syndrome, drawing on the examples of six Russian companies, including three with western ownership. In knowledge sharing hostile environments, it is inadequate to apply traditional means for managing knowledge sharing processes. Instead of encouraging, stimulating, and aligning incentives, managers need initially to force knowledge sharing to transform their organizations into knowledge embracing cultures. Outlines concrete guidelines for overcoming the barriers to knowledge sharing.
