Abstract
Creative industries (CIs) constitute the most important area in the contemporary global, knowledge-based economy. These enterprises, which operate in creative sectors, represent the most innovative businesses. Such sectors generate both growth and employment. CIs were defined as the activities that have their origin in individual creativity, skill, and talent as well as open the potential for wealth and job creation by generating and taking advantage of intellectual property. The problems and challenges in CI management are solved because of the accumulated resources of knowledge and the capacity for their effective implementation. Such processes rely on a creatively talented man who takes advantage of unconventional thinking and acting patterns. However, studies covering CI functioning, from the perspective of management science and primarily the concept of knowledge management have, so far, remained few and fragmentary. In one of the author’s previous research, related to the sector of CIs, it was indicated that talents, competencies, and ideas for starting a business can bring these people together who were growing up and influenced by the same urban, academic, or artistic environments. Narrow social groups of friends or good acquaintances, who establish a creative knowledge-based organization, are mutually, strongly, and emotionally bonded. The crucial issue here is the impact exerted by motivating, communicating, or team work orientation on knowledge sharing processes. The results of the study were used to develop a business model totally oriented to knowledge used in CIs.
