Along with the information of accumulation, adoption of new knowledge processing technology and the complexity of work, which brings knowledge work research tide, people put a lot of activities into a separate field, namely knowledge work.Knowledge workers, as the carrier of knowledge work, both knowledge transmitter and creator, the importance of knowledge work and knowledge workers has become more and more obvious. With the development of related technologies, many enterprises focus on the development and application of database and information management methods, to the greatest extent to store, use, and share knowledge, which makes the content of knowledge work constantly update. In this process, the knowledge sharing as an important means and the core content of knowledge management, which can make knowledge to free flow and use in a certain range, save acquisition cost of knowledge, in order to improve the productivity of knowledge, and to facilitate the spread and innovation of knowledge. However, it is found that in management practice, knowledge sharing is unable to be carried out efficient by technical channels, so more enterprise and scholars begin to pay close attention to the non-technological factors of knowledge sharing. Based on the related theory of the knowledge work, knowledge sharing, from the innovation perspective of knowledge structure, studied the relationship between knowledge sharing and its influencing factors, knowledge sharing can be divided into two levels, the objective aspect is structured characteristics determined by the content of knowledge work itself, the subjective aspect is divided into four dimension:Altruism, Benthamism, Reciprocity and Valuism of knowledge workers, Which constructs hypothesis model. By questionnaire investigation, the valid questionnaires were collected from 114 IT staff of Shanghai six companies, used statistical software SPSS11.0 and structural equation modeling (SEM) AMOS7.0 for data analysis and hypothesis testing, the results showed that:Knowledge Work Structure, Altruism, Benthamism, and Reciprocity significantly influence knowledge sharing, Valuism doesn't significantly influence knowledge sharing. The higher of knowledge work structure, the knowledge sharing is easier; the lower of knowledge work structure, the knowledge sharing is more difficult. Altruism, Benthamism and Reciprocity have certain simulative effect on knowledge sharing. Although Valuism doesn't pass the test, the proof has certain reference value for subsequent research of knowledge sharing. In addition, In addition, the paper analyzes the direct effect, indirect effect and total effect between Altruism, Benthamism, Reciprocity and knowledge sharing, it is concluded that:to a certain extent, in addition to Altruism itself can influence the knowledge sharing, for the pursuit of Benthamism also can lead to individual to show the tendency of Altruism and indirectly promote the occurrence of knowledge sharing, the reflection of Altruism is not only attributed to no expectation of return for purpose, may contain potential reward expectations of Benthamism. These conclusions validate and supplement on the existing theory of knowledge sharing, and effective implementation of knowledge sharing for the organization to provide the ideas and methods These conclusions to existing knowledge sharing theory are verified with supplement, and provides ideas and methods for the organization to realize knowledge sharing effectively.Therefore, the results of this study to some extent have enriched the knowledge management theory, and have some guiding effect on the study of knowledge sharing and expansion.
