Sažetak
This paper analyses various personal and organizational factors that affect knowledge sharing between employees in organizations. Personal factors involve general demographic characteristics i.e. gender, age and years of experience, and also technical, social or natural orientation of the profession of employees. Characteristics of organizations that were examined regarding knowledge sharing behaviour are the type of ownership and production or service activity of the organization. Results show that gender, level of education, organizational tenure and advance at work have significant impact on knowledge sharing. Regarding different types of organizations, the type of activities does not affect knowledge sharing, while the type of ownership does. Results have primarily practical implications for the design of managerial and organizational measures that would provide knowledge sharing and spreading in a more efficient manner and in accordance with the long-term strategic goals of the organization.
