title = "Communicative Action in Intellectual Capital Creation: An Empirical Test",
abstract = "This working paper presents a conceptual framework that situates and tests, using a structural model, the contribution of communicative action (CAN) to the process of intellectual capital (IC) creation. Drawing on perceptual data from senior financial executives in the ICT sector the preliminary findings are encouraging. Positive and statistically significant path coefficients between the Habermasian derived CAN construct and both knowledge creation and knowledge sharing provide some initial empirical support to previous theoretical work.",
