Abstract

Knowledge management orientation consisting of existing knowledge (organizational memory), knowledge sharing (knowledge sharing), combining new knowledge with existing knowledge (knowledge absorption), and receiving new knowledge (knowledge receptivity) are important tools and resources for companies to provide sustainable competitive advantage. Knowledge management orientation does not originate from company knowledge but comes from individual knowledge. This study aims to analyze the interdependent culture that has become an inherent culture in Indonesian people towards their efforts in implementing a knowledge management orientation. This study uses an experimental method with a sample of 100 accounting students from the University of Muhammadiyah Riau who have worked in a variety of different companies. Data collected from these students were processed by simple linear regression using SPSS for Windows ver 25. The results of this study indicate that the interdependent culture that is owned by students can influence them in applying knowledge management orientation. This happens because someone who has an interdependent culture will always consider the good and bad impacts on others in making decisions. This research has implications for both practitioners and academics to improve the application of knowledge management orientation that can be used in dealing with the development of a competitive business world.
