Abstract

The research aims at studying the scope of innovative knowledge management. It uses the concept of eight processes of knowledge management and identifies three broad categories of knowledge management innovations in an organizational context. It tries to verify outcomes of these innovative efforts. The research considers four aspects of organizational effectiveness: enterprise competitiveness, revenues, buyers' satisfaction, and business partners' satisfaction. The analysis covers small, medium, and large companies in Poland. The main conclusion is that studied enterprises are little innovative in the area of knowledge management.
