The paper is aimed to explain the dynamics of organisational competence through the Knowledge Based View (RBV) perspective. The author referred to the concepts of the double-loop learning and four levels of the professional intellect of an organisation (know-what, know-how, know-why, care-why) as a research theoretical foundation for investigating main constraints on organisational competence development.References
