Research Questions


Grounded Theory approach / 2 main research questions:



1. How are Enterprise Wikis used?

2. How is user motivation associated with the way in
   which wikis are used?




    07.09.2012                                          6
Data Acquisition


1. qualitative content analysis of the wiki spaces (12 /
   2011)
   – 170 wiki spaces were analysed manually
   – 27 usage scenarios could be identified


2. semi-structured interviews with employees
   – iterative selection of 10 interviewees on the basis of previous
     space analysis
   – Focus on: usage scenarios, user motivation, perceived problems




     07.09.2012                                                    7
Finding 1: Typology of application scenarios




    07.09.2012                                 8
Finding 2: Theoretical model of user motivation




    07.09.2012                                    9
Conclusion and next steps


Findings:
 4 main application modes: Enterprise Wikis are
  versatile tools for knowledge workers
 user motivation is mainly egoistic
 to facilitate user motivation, enterprise wikis have to
  create a perceived benefit for the knowledge worker

Next steps:
 further exploration of usage motivation on basis of
  existing concepts of work psychology
 comparative case studys of other companys with
  enterprise wikis
