As one of the most important strategic resources of an organization, there is a growing interest among the scholars and the practitioners about the KMO. Although, the interest on KMO is widely spread all over the world, yet, a little attention has been given to integrate the findings of former surveys and assess the prevailing status of the research in this field. This study aims to conduct a systematic review of KMO research, to identify the various kinds of definitions of KMO, measurements of KMO, areas conducted KMO studies, research gaps addressed in KMO research, limitations confronted by the former studies and the future focus on the KMO research. By following multiple filtering processes, it was identified 35 scholarly works on KMO which have been published during the period of 2015-2020. The study reveals that there is a high potential for future studies in KMO in association with numerous fields of studies.

    (Wayamba Journal of Management, 2022) Jayampathi, E. K.; Alwis, A. C. De; Razi, M. J. M.
    Today’s business organizations need to improve an ability of managing organizational knowledge for attaining organizational goals and objectives while capturing the competitive advantage and enhance the performance. Although Knowledge Management Orientation (KMO) is recognized as a vital element in an organizational performance, relationship between KMO and Organizational Performance (OP) is fragmented and ambiguous due to various conceptualizations and definitions. The purpose of this paper was to develop a conceptual model that explain the fragmented results in between Knowledge Management Orientation (KMO) and OP. A systematic literature review was carried out to identify the research gaps and limitations of the literature. The study suggested a new model KMO-Organizational Agility (OA)-OP to uncover the fragmented literature between KMO and OP. Future researchers may consider the OA as a mediating variable to uncover the nexus between KMO and OP. This study highlighted the necessity of promoting OA in business organizations to improve the OP while put together the KMO.
