Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to present the concept of knowledge transfer risk, the specific features of this type of risk in inter-organizational and intra-organizational environments. The motivation for this research originated from the necessity of an analysis of the risk involved in the process of knowledge transfer, in the present context of the knowledge based society. Knowledge, knowledge management, knowledge transfer, knowledge transfer risk, knowledge transfer security are concepts associated to the actual business trend characterized by the growing globalization phenomena, global competitiveness, ever changing dynamics and high data amounts that demand real-time decisions on any manager.
