They do so by shaping bloggers’ group (subordinate) and organizational (superordinate) identities, which affect knowledge sharing between members of different work-groups in an organization. Building on existing research on psychological identity and on knowledge transfer, we make the case for the benefits of integrating these two research streams; more important, we identify blogging communities as factors in shaping individuals’ identities and potentially facilitating knowledge transfer within organizations.</p>}, number={1}, journal={Proceedings of the International AAAI Conference on Web and Social Media}, author={Sippel, Bryan and Brodt, Susan}, year={2021}, month={Sep.}, pages={224-225} }
