Despite the organizational benefits of knowledge sharing among employees, many workers are reluctant to share their knowledge with their colleagues. Most organizations have taken a lot of actions to facilitate knowledge sharing among employees, including developing reward systems, enhancing social networks and interpersonal relationships and crafting organizational cultures that support knowledge sharing. To date, however, earlier studies have demonstrated that knowledge doesn't flow easily when an organization makes a concerted effort to facilitate knowledge sharing. The issue whether or not employees are motivated to share their knowledge with others is definitely the main concern in knowledge sharing. The purpose of this study is to explore the conditions under which employees are inclined to share knowledge with other members. Specifically, we examine the effect of knowledge self-efficacy on knowledge sharing intention. In addition, we attempt to investigate medicating effects of personal outcome expectation and performance-related outcome expectation on the relationship between knowledge self-efficacy and knowledge sharing intention. To test the proposed hypotheses in our study, we collected data via a survey with a sample of 210 employees in 23 firms in Korea. The major findings of the empirical research are as follows: 1) knowledge self-efficacy was positively related with knowledge sharing intention. 2) personal outcome expectation has turned out to have a mediation effect on the relationship between knowledge self-efficacy and knowledge sharing intention. 3) performance-related outcome expectation also mediates the relationship between knowledge self-efficacy and knowledge sharing intention That is, this result indicates that knowledge self-efficacy has indirect effect on knowledge sharing intention through personal outcome expectation and performance-related outcome expectation. Based on these findings, implications of the research findings and recommendation for future research are discussed.

As the utilization value of personal information becomes higher, discussions about providing personal information are being conducted actively. One of the most common methods of providing personal information is that a group obtains a personal information with a consent of individual. However, the above method has 2 problems. First, more information is exposed than the information required by organization for utilization of personal information. Second, trusted party should provide organization with an authentication of personal information whenever they require personal information. To solve these problems, we propose a personal information management system with blockchain using zk-SNARK(zero-knowledge Succinct Non-interactive ARgument of Knowledge) for privacy. Our proposal enables individuals to guarantee reliability of their information and protect their privacy concurrently using zk-SNARK when they provid organization with their personal information. In addition, it is possible to manage the personal information data while ensuring the integrity of the data using blockchain and it is possible to share the personal information more conveniently than existing systems.
