It has been assumed that the condition most expected by an entrepreneur is to achieve a competitive advantage. The concept of observance of human rights in conducting business activities is connected with business ethics and the idea of corporate social responsibility, while economic well-being can be achieved in the conditions of a knowledge-based economy. One of the conditions for the survival and development of the employer conducting business activities in the knowledge-based economy is to effectively motivate employees to reveal their knowledge and use it in practice. Non-financial motivation may involve the feeling of identification with the employer.enUznanie autorstwa-Użycie niekomercyjne-Na tych samych warunkach 3.0 Polskahttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/pl/human rightsdemocracyinnovationsknowledge based-economyinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article10.31743/recl.11344
