Abstract

The not-invented-here-syndrome (NIHS) can be broadly defined as a bias against knowledge and ideas that cross organization or unit boundaries. As a consequence, outside knowledge and ideas are rejected or underused simply because their source is external to the organization or unit. The notion of NIHS has been widely applied to a variety of contexts, including knowledge transfers within multinational enterprises (MNEs).
