The investigation reported in this paper intended to explore the research on knowledge management in higher educational institutions in South Asian countries. A systematic literature review was conducted to identify, select and retrieve relevant scholarly literature, by following a detailed protocol and a systematic data extraction strategy. The findings of the study showed that limited research on knowledge management in the context of higher educational institutions was conducted in both theoretical aspects and practical implementations, denoting an imperative to conduct more research in this area. The findings also disclosed that multiple factors affect the knowledge management practices among primary higher educational institution agents: faculty, administrative staff, and information professionals. As the result of the analysis of the literature review findings, a conceptual framework is proposed, which is expected to provide a good foundation for future research as well as pave the way towards more successful knowledge management implementations in the higher educational institutions in South Asia and beyond.

El objetivo del presente estudio es determinar si cultura organizacional modera la relación entre el liderazgo y las prácticas de gestión del conocimiento, en las escuelas profesionales de la UNPRG. Al respecto, se trabajaron teorías, modelos y enfoques sobre cultura organizacional, liderazgo y gestión del conocimiento,con un enfoque cuantitativo, no experimental, de tipo correlacional, deductivo y analítico, en una muestra de 50 docentes y 100 trabajadores administrativos. Para la recolección de datos se utilizó el Denison Organisational Culture Survey (DOCS) de Fey & Denison (2003), para medir la Cultura Organizacional;el Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (Avolio et al., 1999) para la medición del Liderazgo y el Knowledge Management Processes (Becerra-Fernandez, I., Sabherwal, R., 2001) para medir Gestión de Conocimiento. Según los resultados, los comportamientos de liderazgo transformacional y transaccional generan impactos significativos sobre las prácticas de gestión del conocimiento. Se ha demostrado que la influencia de los comportamientos de liderazgo transaccional sobre la gestión del conocimiento depende de los tipos de cultura organizacional. En conclusión, la cultura organizacional no modera la relación entre el comportamiento del liderazgo transformacional y las prácticas de gestión del conocimiento; sin embargo, sí modera la relación entre el comportamiento del liderazgo transaccional y las prácticas de gestión del conocimiento.
