Abstract

The concept of ‘sharing economy’ has become a popular concept nowadays. Organizations, irrespective of their nature of business and scope of operations, are now practicing it. Academia has also no exception. The academicians, along with their job of imparting lectures, are now ‘sharing the economy’ by rendering a broad range of services, such as consultancies, online guiding, research & development, motivational speaking, editing, report writing and so on to the individuals and business organizations. Online sharing platforms are providing the facilities to interact around the globe and effortlessly access to experts to uphold and get experts opinions. This paper, based on the need-based framework of motivation, introduces a conceptual model that elucidates the entire process underlying the academicians’ involvement in the ‘sharing economy’. Also, this paper offers certain useful implications for theoretical research.
