Abstract

In a globalized world, the Czech economy interferes with a number of challenges, which the processes of integration bring. For businesses that want to succeed in global competition, the key factors are knowledge and ability to make the best use of the knowledge. The aim of this paper is to introduce the research on the acquisition and preservation of knowledge as a resource for decision-making in enterprises in the Czech Republic. The survey was carried out at the University of Hradec Kralove. In Total, 678 organizations operating in the Czech Republic across all sectors were contacted, with a focus on small and medium enterprises. 251 completed questionnaires were obtained. As revealed from the results of the survey, Czech enterprises perceive knowledge management as an important means for increasing competitiveness. For its systematic application in business practice, however, there are still some steps missing.
