Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to present a new approach to analyzing the knowledge strategies by using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). Knowledge strategies represent new and powerful strategies elaborated at the organization level with the goal of achieving competitive advantage. Knowledge strategies are based on the organization’s intangible resources and on the dynamics of organizational knowledge that include processes like knowledge creation, knowledge acquisition, knowledge sharing, knowledge transfer, knowledge diffusion and knowledge loss. Knowledge strategies are important especially for the knowledge-intensive organization. The AHP method is used in the managerial decision-making process and is concerned with deriving dominance priorities from paired comparisons of homogeneous elements with respect to a common criterion or attribute. In our research, we used the AHP method to analyze the intergenerational knowledge transfer in universities and to derive the weighting factors for the dynamic equilibrium equation of the knowledge field in organizations.
