Abstract

The paper discusses the issues of knowledge creation, knowledge security management and the impact it has on the generation of innovative ideas in an organisational environment. Knowledge security seems to be the key factor in building competitive advantage for businesses. In order to be competitive these days, one has to be constantly implementing innovative products and solutions. A number of companies that are involved in innovative activities yet do not always provide sufficient knowledge resources, which lay the foundations to further growth. The aim of this paper is to recognize the security gap that opens up during the dynamic, knowledge-based and innovation-driven development of a company. This gap can be created if a company fails to identify appropriately the stakeholders and their needs or their intentions when time is scarce. The reflections are based on research conducted on a group of companies developing a pro innovative approach with a focus on knowledge management.
