Abstract

The aim of the article is to illustrate the methods of acquiring knowledge in enterprises. Knowledge will be defined in terms of individuals and of the organization. Different authors define knowledge in different ways and they also recommend various methods for the effective acquisition of knowledge. There is a substantial confusion in terminology, but all of them clearly agree that knowledge is becoming the most important source of competitive advantage. It is vital for the survival and success of the firm. The most important, of course, is the knowledge that contributes to business success. This knowledge has a certain value in the market. The basic question is how to ensure such an environment for knowledge to be able to create maximum added value as a measure of business performance. In the future the employees should be able to continuously enrich their knowledge and thereby gain the ability to make competitive products and services to market.
