Knowledge sharing has been identified as a crucial enabler for organizations to strive for a competitive edge in a competitive business world (Wang et al., 2014; Asrar-ul-Haq and Anwar, 2016; Serenko et al., 2016; Manfredi Latilla et al., 2018; Abdelwhab Ali, Panneer selvam, Paris & Gunasekaran, 2019). Organizations invest heavily on knowledge sharing systems and putting knowledge strategy in place, but this alone cannot guarantee the actual knowledge sharing within the organization. The greatest knowledge asset lies within the minds of employees and it is extremely crucial for organizations to focus on the workforce. The objective of this study is to understand factors in motivating knowledge sharing behavior among Information Technology (IT) professionals working in Malaysia. Upon validation, this study would be useful for upper management of the IT workforce to gain better understandings on factors to stress on to promote knowledge sharing behavior among IT professionals. Taking from various field of research including but not limited to knowledge management, social psychology, business management, organizational behavior, organizational learning, organizational psychology, and employee engagement, this research developed an integrated theoretical model that studied on the critical factors influencing knowledge sharing behavior. The proposed theoretical model was validated via a survey on IT professionals working in Malaysia. The results of this survey provide empirical support for the overall hypothesis and model structure theorized in this research. Eleven (11) of the fourteen (14) hypothesized relationships were supported. Based on the findings, the study discussed the implication and limitation of this study. The results of this study are crucial as it is shedding light on how employee engagement and its outcome would influence knowledge sharing behavior.
