Knowledge of employees is now considered an important asset in any organisation of productive or non-productive nature. Its efficient transfer among employees also brings a lot of benefits to the organisation, namely, knowledge ensures the performance of work tasks, it can improve interpersonal relationships and provide a competitive advantage. This issue is also addressed in the content of the article, which focuses on knowledge transfer among employees in organisations of local governments. The first part of the article contains a theoretical basis for knowledge and its rapid transfer among employees. The second part documents the results of the research, which was conducted among employees of organisations of local governments. As part of the research a search was done to establish the importance that respondents attach to the knowledge they have acquired in various forms of learning and informal ways and willingness to provide knowledge to colleagues.
