A theory framework of motivating R&D professionals’ knowledge sharing intentions based on 2 unit types were built. 339 valid questionnaires were collected and correlation analysis and hierarchical stepwise regression analysis were used for hypotheses testing. A comparative analysis of motivating knowledge sharing intentions in functional and crossfunctional units found that the biggest impact factor of knowledge sharing intentions is ‘enjoyment in helping others’ which belongs to internal incentives, and internal incentives have a significant positive impact on knowledgesharing intentions in terms of functional teams or crossfunctional teams, and team types would moderate the relationship between external incentives and knowledge sharing intentions in such a way that external incentives(organizational rewards) have a significant positive effect in crossfunctional teams, while having a weak negative impact in functional teams.
