Abstract: The research examined the correlation between knowledge sharing and innovative work behaviour of employees in the pharmaceutical industry in Ho Chi Minh City and the moderating role of perceived supervisor support. Data was collected through a survey of 315 employees using a questionnaire and analysed via partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM). The findings indicated that knowledge sharing significantly positively impacts innovative work behaviour. Additionally, factors such as trust among colleagues, reciprocity, organisational commitment, and individuals' self-assessed capacity to share knowledge all positively influence knowledge-sharing behaviour. Importantly, perceived supervisor support not only directly affects innovative work behaviour but also increases the impact of knowledge sharing on innovative behaviour. The study contributes to social exchange theory, social cognitive theory, and theory of planned behaviour and provides practical implications for building work environments that encourage knowledge sharing and innovation.
