It also examines interactions of the substructures which, in turn, have differing impacts on innovativeness. Additionally, this study illustrates which PKQ substructure is most affected by knowledge sharing. PKQ has become imperative, not an option, for innovativeness in the environment characterized by knowledge overload. However, there is little research on PKQ due to its abundant, variable nature.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-heading\">Design\/methodology\/approach<\/jats:title><jats:p>\u2013 The survey methodology was used to collect data. A total of 368 individuals in the USA participated in the study.

Perceived intrinsic knowledge quality, however, is inadequate by itself and should be transformed into perceived contextual, actionable knowledge quality to produce innovativeness.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-heading\">Research limitations\/implications<\/jats:title><jats:p>\u2013 This study addresses the shortfall of understanding the dynamics of PKQ\u2019s substructures and unfolds theoretical links to knowledge sharing and innovativeness.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-heading\">Practical implications<\/jats:title><jats:p>\u2013 This study offers valuable insights to managers who face ongoing challenges in sharing knowledge and improving knowledge quality, thereby leading their quality of knowledge into innovativeness.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-heading\">Originality\/value<\/jats:title><jats:p>\u2013 Despite growing recognition, few empirical studies on PKQ are present in the literature.
