Abstract
The focus of this research was to examine organizational knowledge utilization in the Nigeria telecommunication industry with a view of proffering managerial implications for enhanced organizational performance. A sample of 504 managerial and administrative and technical employees in the four most active telecommunication organizations in the Nigerian GSM sub market of the telecommunication industry was determined for the research study. Descriptive analysis was used to show respondents’ views of organizational knowledge utilization. Findings revealed that employees’ responsiveness towards individual-tacit knowledge is low as opposed to individual-explicit knowledge. More interestingly and as expected is the fact that employees’ strong inclinations, evidenced by high mean scores, towards group-tacit and group-explicit knowledge respectively, emphasize the organizations’ strong culture of team work.
