Abstract
A knowledge management initiative is as an organizational strategy to ensure organizations develop sustainability and gain competitive advantage. This study is to examine knowledge sharing barriers, including individual, organizational, and technology barriers in the non-profit context. A quantitative analyze was utilized through descriptive statistical technique with data collected from the NPOs in Thailand. The sample organizations were 213 NPOs that currently are operating in diverse sectors. The investigation re-examined KS barriers identified in the literature of KM and to reflect the perspectives beyond for-profit sector. A triad of KS barriers were evaluated, but most barriers did not neatly conform to the sampled organizations in Thailand. The study illustrates an empirical insight into KM strategy for non-profit sectors in the context of developing countries, which needs more attention from the scholars.
