Relación entre la gestión del conocimiento y la toma de decisiones en autoridades de una universidad pública peruana
Relationship between knowledge management and decision-making among authorities of a peruvian public UniversityContenido principal del artículo
La investigación tuvo como objetivo establecer la relación entre la gestión del conocimiento y la toma de decisiones en autoridades de una universidad pública peruana en el año 2025. Se utilizó un enfoque cuantitativo, de tipo correlacional y diseño transversal, con una muestra de 127 autoridades. Se aplicaron los cuestionarios de Gestión del Conocimiento Universitario (CEGCU) y fue adaptado el Melbourne Decision Making Questionnaire (MDMQ), ambos validados y con una confiabilidad adecuada. Los resultados mostraron que existe una correlación positiva y significativa entre la gestión del conocimiento y la toma de decisiones (rs = 0.683, p < 0.01). Se determina que, a mayor gestión del conocimiento, mayor capacidad de toma de decisiones. Este resultado refuerza la necesidad de fortalecer la gestión del conocimiento a nivel directivo para mejorar los procesos de toma de decisiones y construir una gestión universitaria más eficiente y alineada con sus objetivos estratégicos.
The research aimed to establish the relationship between knowledge management and decision-making among authorities of a Peruvian public university in 2025. A quantitative, correlational, and cross-sectional design was used, with a sample of 127 university authorities. The University Knowledge Management Questionnaire (CEGCU) and an adapted version of the Melbourne Decision Making Questionnaire (MDMQ) were applied, both validated and with adequate reliability. The results showed a positive and significant correlation between knowledge management and decision-making (rs = 0.683, p < 0.01). It was determined that the greater the knowledge management, the greater the decision-making capacity. This finding reinforces the need to strengthen knowledge management at the leadership level to improve decision-making processes and build a more efficient university management aligned with strategic objectives.
