RAZVOJ LJUDSKIH RESURSA I INOVATIVNOST KAO DETERMINANTE UNAPREĐENJA GLOBALNE KONKURENTNOSTI PREDUZEĆA

Sažetak

Human resources and innovation represent important elements of modern
business processes. Business success depends primarily on human resources and
business creativity in the current global business environment. In a competitive global
economy, where other production factors (capital, technology, raw materials and
information) can be copied, an organization's human resources become the only source
of permanent competitive benefit. In that sense, business entities in a globalized
environment have to do business differently. Those radically new conditions require
innovation and special quality of human resources, and new knowledge and skills of all
actors in the economic arena. Such a business environment requires inventiveness and
creativity of the persons managing knowledge and information, who create
entrepreneurial atmosphere and create organizations based on innovation and
teamwork work to overcome problems that arise from fast organizational change and
integration of countries into international economic environment. The primary goal is
to provide a better understanding of the roles of human resources and innovation in the
performance improvement and competitiveness of global organizations and be of
practical use regarding the perception of the importance of human resources
management and innovation in modern business.
