Resumo
Taking into account the importance of Knowledge Management, both in academic terms and in the management practices, this work aims to explore and describe the scientific literature published in the ISI Web of Science. As specific objectives we present a) describe how thisfield of research is organized in terms of publications, authors and sources(journals); b) discuss how the literature referred to presents challenges (opportunities and difficulties) for the scholarship on the knowledge sharing within health organizations. A systematic approach was used, making use of a rigorous protocol and definition of steps to perform the research and analysis of the literature. The results show that this is still an incipient research topic due to the high polarization identified, either in terms of the number of publications by journals or authors. This paper identifies ways of research that can be explored in order to give greater consistency and to increase substantively the theoretical and empirical knowledge in this theme.
