The purpose of this study is to explore the effect of transformational leadership (TL) on tacit and explicit knowledge sharing (KS) of teachers through the mediating role of knowledge-centered school culture (KSC). This study also attempts to bring a deeper insight into the correlation between KSC and KS behaviors by exploring the moderating effect of perceived organizational support (POS).

The paper used a quantitative approach and structural equation modeling to examine the relationship among the latent factors in the research model using data collected from 293 teachers in Vietnamese universities.

The findings indicated that TL positively influences tacit and explicit KS behaviors of teachers directly or indirectly through its positive effect on KSC. In addition, the paper highlights the moderating role of POS in strengthening the impact of TL on tacit and explicit KS behaviors of teachers.

This paper emphasizes the need to practice TL as an effective pathway to foster tacit and explicit KS behaviors of teachers in higher education.

The paper significantly contributes to enhancing understanding of the antecedent role of TL in fostering knowledge-centered culture and KS behaviors of teachers under the moderating effects of POS in higher education.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of transformational leadership (TL) of school leaders on tacit and explicit knowledge sharing (KS) of teachers via the mediating roles of knowledge self-efficacy. This study also attempts to bring a deeper insight on the correlation between TL and KS by exploring the moderating effect of knowledge-oriented school culture (KSC).

The paper used the quantitative approach and structural equation modeling to test the relationship among the latent factors in the proposed research model using data collected from 335 teachers in Vietnamese universities.

The findings revealed that TL might be an important precursor to create significant influences on tacit and explicit KS behaviors of teachers directly or indirectly through its positive effect on knowledge self-efficacy. In addition, the paper highlights the moderating role of KSC in strengthening the impact of TL on tacit and explicit KS behaviors of teachers.

This paper offers principals and managers in higher education a novel approach and valuable understanding of the effective pathways to foster KS behaviors of teachers.

This study is unique in its attempts to bridge research gaps in the literature and advance the insights of how school leadership fosters knowledge self-efficacy and KS willingness of teachers through practicing TL style and building a knowledge-oriented climate in higher education.

The purpose of this paper is to explore the main features of the Vietnamese economic transition and industrial development pattern analyzing the evolution of the industrial policy formulation in the light of the changes in the country’s productive specialization and competitive position in the international division of labor. The authors also aim at stressing the role exerted by different external paradigm of influence on the Vietnamese policy making and the function of selectivity as an instrument to upgrade the competitiveness of the Vietnamese production system.

The paper provides a descriptive analysis of the Vietnamese recent economic trends and structural transformation dynamics. It realizes a literature review concerning the academic debate on the role and the effects of industrial policy in Vietnam identifying a categorization between different theoretical perspectives. In addition, it implements an in-depth analysis of the main industrial planning strategies promoted by the government investigating the evolution of the lines of the country’s economic policy agenda. On the basis of the previous analyses, the paper draws out some conclusions about the application of selective criteria in Vietnamese industrial policy interventions.

An in-depth examination of the planning prescriptions suggests that the Vietnamese government has undertaken a pronounced paradigm change in the course of last 15 years. The Vietnamese planning approach displays a shift toward a systematic and extended vision concerning the role of industrial policy, which result to be in clear discontinuity with respect to the market-friendly approach supported by Washington institutions. Nevertheless, this configuration outlines several limits characterizing the Vietnamese planning activity, connected to the lack of transparency and efficiency of the governance mechanisms that risk to undermine the effectiveness of the upgrading policies.

The paper focuses on Vietnam, an emerging economy in transition whose development trajectory has been characterized by peculiar economic and policy dynamics. The hybrid character of the government policy-making approach makes it difficult to identify univocal interpretations concerning the country’s industrial development dynamics and the resulting policy implications. In this perspective, the analysis has shed light on the mechanisms conditioning the formulation of industrial policy in Vietnam, focusing on the external influences exerted on its definition and on the domestic interactions associated to its implementation.
