Abstract: Knowledge management has been becoming increasingly popular, as a field of research and that not only on a theoretical level but also as a subject of empirical research. In spite of the fact that new research findings are published in the field every day, it often happens that the readers of these research studies still have a feeling that something more should be done. The study after is a study that summarizes the main results of the research into the use of knowledge management practices in the past few years. The results of the already conducted qualitative and quantitative research show that inspite of numerous efforts and initiatives, there is not a single knowledge management system which could serve, as an example to prove that any of the theoretical models work in practice. The reasons for this lying in the background are summarized in the study after in which researchers aimed to point out the lack of cultural and economic precondition in Hungary. The study deals with their ethical and moral aspects and with their existence on a corporate level and also presents concrete cases. The research results are presented on the basis of the well-known Probst Model and provide an insight into the most typical problems on a corporate level.
