Abstract

Knowledge sharing is considered a key process for facilitating knowledge management. The objective of this article is to identify the process of knowledge sharing among radiologists during knowledge intensive activities in diagnostic imaging organizations. The empirical research used three phases of data collection: observations, interviews and questionnaire to verify the results. Three radiology and diagnostic imaging organizations from Santa Catarina-Brazil were selected and groups of radiologists belonging to these organizations were analyzed, totaling forty-three participants. For the analysis of the data the thematic analysis technique was used. The shared knowledge in the groups was mainly triggered by specific problems and involved scientific evidence, experience, practice and information on the patient\'s signs and symptoms to aid in decision making. The success of tacit sharing in the studied groups was mainly a result of interactions and affective ties, shared values, group size and proximity to cognitive units. It is concluded, when individuals perceive the value of their knowledge, to share knowledge becomes a more complex process, knowledge is highly great valued and the individual tends to claim the emotional property of knowledge.
