Chapter 2 in Managing Knowledge Workers, 2013, pp 7-40 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Enterprises functioning in a market economy have to implement changes in their systems of organization and the management they use. In economic practice, making a decision in an enterprise is conditioned by competitors’ actions and changing environmental factors, e.g., technical progress and the results of research efforts. Added value for a company can be determined as knowledge, employees’ skills and abilities, social relations, know-how, and, particularly, effective investment in intellectual capital. Enterprises that invest in human capital and systems of work achieve a competitive advantage because of their workers’ readiness to learn and achieve and also thanks to effective information and communication transfers (Edvinsson and Malone 1997).
