Design/methodology/approach This is a quantitative research by nature. A questionnaire derived from previous studies and covered by 27 NPD projects in the high‐tech semiconductor industry in Malaysia. Stepwise regression was adopted to test hypothesis. Findings Out of the four independent variables, knowledge acquisition and information interpretation were found to have a signification relationship with NPD success. The findings also confirmed that TMS is a moderator in the relationship between team learning and NPD success. Research limitations/implications The relationships investigated in this research deserve further investigation. Because the data analyzed were collected from the high‐tech semiconductor industry in Malaysia. More studies are required before general conclusion can be drawn. Practical implications It is reasonable to conclude, on these findings, that NPD can be successful in the high‐tech semiconductor industry with given emphasis on team learning and TMS. Originality/value The paper reinforces the body of knowledge relating to NPD in the high‐tech semiconductor industry. 2009-01-01T00:00:00Z https://ar.iub.edu.bd/handle/11348/827 The Mediating Effects of Socialization on Organizational Contexts and Knowledge Sharing This study investigates the relationship between socialization, organizational contexts, and knowledge sharing. Organizational contexts were operationalized as organizational structure and climate. Five broadly hypothesized relationshipsbetween organizational contexts, socialization and knowledge sharing were tested based on empirical study in service organizations. The findings related to direct effects reveal that only supportive climate is positively related to organizational socialization. The results suggest that organizational socializationis important for knowledge sharing. The service organizations in Malaysia may use these findings to improve knowledge sharing in Malaysia. 2010-01-01T00:00:00Z
