Abstract: This paper analyses what determinants are involved in knowledge sharing and organizational learning and which relationship exists between these two processes by designing a methodology in order to asses these process in an integrated one called learning by sharing. Based on a literature review of knowledge, the aim of this article is to build an integrative model of learning by sharing which takes into account four main differentiations of an organization: knowledge differentiations, competency differentiations, cooperation differentiations and competition differentiations.

Results show that learning by sharing process is highly influenced by the four differentiations involved in the systemic learning by sharing diamond. This study provides empirical evidence for testing a new integrated model by taking into account four organizational differentiations.
