Resumen
[EN] Growing competition among higher education institutions
(HEIs) explains their increasing interest in reinforcing strategies
by incorporating knowledge transfer (KT) objectives
into their strategic plans. However, this strategic formulation
must be aligned with the implementation of performance
management systems (PMSs) to properly achieve KT objectives.
Thus, the aim of this paper is to examine whether
aligning PMSs with KT strategic objectives improves KT performance
while misalignment worsens it. To that end, PMSs
are measured with respect to planning; cybernetic control;
policies and procedures and reward and compensation elements.
KT is specified as R&D contracts, extended patents,
patents and licences. With a sample of 3812 Spanish university
lecturers, we test the theoretical positive and negative
effects of PMS–KT
strategy alignment and misalignment on
KT performance respectively. The results show not only that
this alignment is effective for KT strategy implementation
but also that misalignment has unintended effects on the
achievement of long-term
KT objectives. Therefore, lecturers'
behaviour is influenced by how closely KT strategy and
PMSs are aligned. The findings are useful for managers and
academics to develop PMSs that effectively contribute to the
achievement of universities' strategic goals.
