Abstract

The key to the success of any business is knowledge. This statement is more emphatic today than at any other times. In the knowledge economy of the developed world, the role of the human factor is more valuable because the members of organizations can capitalize on the advantages of synergistic effect through knowledge sharing. Synergistic effect is also manifest in the growing profits of an enterprise, and, therefore, it can also be considered as a method of enterprise development. Leaders play a key role in recognizing and encouraging opportunities to draw on knowledge sharing. In our research, primary and secondary data have been used to study outstanding opportunities of gaining and developing knowledge. Moreover, there is also a focus on the self-improvement practices relative to management skills, as well as management responses to change.
