Studying Knowledge Management and Human Resource Management Practices in the State-Owned Entities Using Mixed Methods Research Design
Abstract
The chapter demonstrates the lessons learnt from the application of an exploratory sequential design in a mixed methods research project to investigate the integration of knowledge management and human resource management practices for the reduction of knowledge loss in the public-owned entities in context. The research design was considered to be suited for studying a research problem from different perspectives and offers complementarity and diversity in data collection and analysis. The chapter revealed that qualitative data need to be complemented with the statistical or quantitative data to make an informed and complete analysis, conclusions, and recommendations of the research findings because, alone, qualitative data lack completeness and generalisability. The chapter presents a framework to design, apply, and evaluate a mixed methods research study so that information scientists, knowledge management researchers, and scholars from other related fields may play a role in its application and development when researching complex phenomena.
