Description ‘Knowledge is power’ is although a popular proverb, it holds much larger significance in the area of knowledge management. In knowledge based organization employing knowledge workers, growth of an employee career is dependent on his knowledge and so it is natural for him to hold on to knowledge. At the other end is growth of the organization which requires an optimal knowledge proliferation. This is where the role of knowledge management comes in. To recognise and understand all those factors that can contribute knowledge sharing and appropriately handle all these factors. Globally recognised researchers like Gold et al (2001)(14), Lee and Choi (2003)(19), Alavi & Tiwana (2005)(1) has demonstrated the impact of technical infrastructure, organization culture, and organization structure and staff skills on the knowledge management capabilities of an organization. Amongst these, organization culture which is partially because of human values of the people associated with the organization plays a significant role in the knowledge sharing behaviour of the workforce.  What are key traits of human values? These are caring & sharing; discipline; selflessness; fairness; justice for one another. Where do these key traits come from? These key traits are part of human values. Human values are passed by parents to their offspring soon after childbirth and are instilled throughout the children's upbringing. As the children grow, they learn more values from their peers, religious leaders, teachers, friends and society at large and cement their opinions about their trait values.
