Problems cannot be solved by the mentality that has caused them, such as neglecting the non-technological innovation. Often, innovative renewal of companies' operations is urgently needed. Overcoming the consequences of the global economic and financial crisis cannot be successful without innovation of the values, culture, business ethics and norms of all their important stakeholders. We suggest a new synergy of methods aimed at renewal of business processes in an innovative way by using the dialectical systems theory approach. We combine BSC, ISO 9000, the method ‘learning company’ and USOMID. Literature so far has not made it clear that those approaches can complement each other and jointly contribute to renewal of business operations according to the requirement of the requisite holism.

This article presents a new business excellence model for PUC (communal), especially in countries in transition as one way to business excellence. The new model has proven successful in a multinational company's daughter company in Slovenia in practice as well as in comparison with companies performing the same activity. We are aware that there are no universal models for success, but there are tools which make it easier to reach. Of course, one single tool will not make a company successful. It must have a unique (original) and requisitely holistic business model to succeed. And talking about unique, i.e. different from others, brings us to innovativeness - the main topic of this research as the background of business excellence, including the PUC. The presented new model has been evolving over ten years and proved successful in practice.

Background: Knowledge plays a crucial role in supporting the European Union model based on economic growth, social responsibility, and sustainable development. To improve companies’ performance, one must reflect on new forms of knowledge and develop new indicators to measure them. Objectives: The goal of the paper is to investigate the impact of the selected factors of knowledge on companies’ performance in Slovenia. Methods/Approach: A questionnaire was created and sent to small and medium-sized enterprises in Slovenia. The principle axis factoring method was used to identify the factors of knowledge and of companies’ performance, and a regression analysis was conducted to determine the influence of the selected knowledge factors on companies’ performance. Results: The establishment of scientists’ collaboration with companies has a positive impact on companies’ performance, but the obstacles to the establishment of scientists’ collaboration with companies do not have any impact. Conclusions: The results could be useful for governments and companies in the adoption of measures aimed at strengthening scientists’ collaboration with companies. Further research can be oriented toward the common synergy index (e.g., the knowledge triangle).

Warunki niezbędne do zapobiegania powtórzeniu się (finansowych, gospodarczych, a także społecznych) kryzysów, a także do ich zniesienia, obejmują wymagalny holizm indywidualności. Dlatego organizacje powinny patrzeć na ludzi wielowarstwowo, nie tylko jako profesjonalnych podmiotów. W synergii, nie tylko indywidualnie określamy ludzi jako: (i) fizyczne, (ii) mentalne, (iii) społeczne, (iv) duchowe i (v) podmioty gospodarcze, postrzegane poprzez wymagania, choć nie absolutnie holistyczne odzwierciedlenie stosunkowo stałych cech, dzięki którym jednostki różnią się od siebie nawzajem, a także jako wyspecjalizowanych profesjonalistów. Wszystkie te i inne atrybuty tworzą efekt synergii. Tak więc, możemy zdefiniować wymagany holizm pracownika jako istniejącą świadomą indywidualność: - osoba fizyczna odpowiednio stosująca aktywne technik w celu uzyskani równowagi fizycznej, - podmiot mentalny, sentyment wzbogacanie, percepcja, umysł i wola za pomocą technik równoważenia życia, - podmiot społeczny, budowanie jakości komunikacji z innymi technikami pracy zawodowej i rozwoju i integralności społecznej, - istoty duchowej, tęsknota do samorealizacji i sensu życia za pomocą technik duchowego rozwoju, - podmiot gospodarczy, starając się zaspokoić swoje potrzeby materialne jako osoba, członek rodziny, współpracownik i jako członek szerszej społeczności. W ten sposób zachowanie osób, które chcą praktykować współpracę interdyscyplinarną, staje się społecznie odpowiedzialne. Jest to możliwa propozycja na odpowiedź na kryzys, który pojawiły się w 2008 roku, stąd indywidualności ewoluują od bycia jedynie jednostkami do wymaganych holistycznych twórców, którzy korzystają z subiektywnego i obiektywnego bogactwa więcej niż inni.

Prerequisites for prevention of repetition of (financial, economic and also social) crises, as well as for their abolition, include requisitely holistic individuals. Hence the organizations should look at humans as multilayered, not only as professional entities. In synergy, not only individually, we define humans as: (i) physical, (ii) mental, (iii) social, (iv) spiritual, and (v) economic entities, marked by requisitely, though not absolutely holistic pattern of relatively permanent characteristics, due to which the individuals differ from each other, and also as specialized professionals. All these and other attributes form synergies. Thus, we define the requisite holism of an employee as an individual existing and conscious of self as: physical person respectively, implementing active techniques to gain physical balance, mental entity, enriching sentiment, perception, mind and will-power by life balancing techniques, social entity, building quality communication with others by the techniques of professional and working development and social integrity, spiritual entity, longing after self-actualization and the sense of life, carrying it into effect by the techniques of spiritual development, economic entity, striving to satisfy her material needs as a person, family member, co-worker and as a member of a wider society. In this way the behavior of individuals, who are willing to practice interdisciplinary cooperation, becomes socially responsible. It offers a possible answer to crisis, arisen in 2008; hence the individuals evolve from being merely owners to requisitely holistic creators, who enjoy subjective and objective welfare more than the others.
