Nexus Among Knowledge Management, Organisational Ambidexterity, Innovation Capability, And Manufacturing Performance: A Study In Ir4.0 Focus Sectors

Malaysia’s manufacturing sector is one of the main contributors to its GDP, but its growth rate has declined over the past few years. Challenge by neighbouring countries with lower labour costs, it has to improve its productivity by upskilling its human resources and adopting advanced manufacturing...
