Staging The Invisible: Does Knowledge Hiding Harm Creativity and Innovation? A Systematic Review and Future Research Agenda
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In today’s knowledge-based economy, creativity and innovation are important factors for competitive and sustainable advantage. Sharing information has always been regarded as essential for nurturing creativity and innovativeness. Furthermore, recent work has opened up a new investigated area concerning knowledge dynamics at work - namely knowledge hiding. This systematic review aims to synthesize literature on the impact of knowledge hiding on both creativity and innovation. Based on 38 articles, we categorize different constructs of creativity and innovation into three dimensions: a) individual level; b) work team level; and c) organizational level. The study’s findings indicate the predominant negative effect of knowledge hiding on different types of creativity and innovation. Surprisingly, the review shows that, in some specific organizational settings, knowledge hiding could be a positive factor in fostering creativity and innovation.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
