Abstract:

It seems that practically nobody has any doubts about the need to value the capability of management subjects despite the lack of adequate methods and approaches. This is more so since specialists are engaged in a professional dialogue about what management capability is formed by, and what needs to be valued.  When it comes to valuation, we can distinguish the following areas which need it in the selection of people for employment in organisations, in career promotion – mainly to manager positions, in qualification growth – increases in capability levels, in determining order and comparability – e.g. in rewarding or firing employees, etc.

The main aim of this paper is to refer to the quantitative research made into Czech business companies in the year of 2010 and qualitative research made in the year of 2011 to the topic of knowledge evaluation with the specialisation to the 360° degree approach. Within the overall framework of this research study, shall be identified the necessity of knowledge evaluation in the companies, aspects of knowledge sharing and subjects of evaluation in the 360° degree approach. In the article’s conclusion, practical suggestions are made for the application of specific evaluation methods for Czech business companies.
