Abstract
Description
This research investigated the influence of teacher-student exchange and SECI model on the higher
institutions students’ academic performance and preparedness for the workplace. Using a sample size of
214 business education students drawn from 6 programmes, the hierarchical multiple regressions was used
to show relationships based on the variables. The statistical analysis showed that only age of the students
had a significant relationship with the dependent variables. Externalisation and internalisation influenced
students’ preparedness for the work place, while teachers-student exchange and socialisation had significant
effects on students’ academic performance. The study recommended that teachers in higher institutions
should enhance students’ capacity to interact continuously in ways that exploit tacit-explicit knowledge
interactions and explore explicit-tacit knowledge interactions. Moreover, students should be helped to
understand that performing excellently academically and being prepared for the workplace is a continuous
chain of activity that ordinarily should not be broken.
