Abstract: Abstract The popularity and awareness of knowledge management has increased dramatically in recent decades. However, intellectual capital research remains fragmented and far from conclusive. These phenomena may be related to the underdevelopment of studies analyzing U-shaped relationships in the field of strategic management. Researchers fail to explain the relationships between different latent mechanisms because they are not using adequate procedures to detect the presence of nonlinear or U-shaped relationships. Therefore, the aim of this research is to explore the intellectual capital in the hotel industry and to analyze the U-shaped relationship between intellectual capital and hotel performance. Structural equation model based on the variance (PLS-SEM) was used to link data and theory in our research that includes moderator variables and nonlinear effect relationships.
