This methodical definition takes a look at the main benefits of on innovation on efficiency and hence on the efficiency and performance on the company as a whole, presenting the possibility of measurement of innovation efficiency and establishing defined methods for its improvement exploiting the development of innovation potential This particular issue is topical not only by reason of competitiveness of our companies but also maintaining share market and surviving the current economic crisis.

Every company has a certain innovation potential which should be explored, supported, utilized and systematically developed. The doctoral thesis focuses on the achievement of two basic goals, the cognitional and the inventive goal as well as confirmation or disconfirmation of set hypothesis. The first cognitional goal analyzes the present situation of solved questions, where current opinions and theories of our local and foreign experts are presented concerning innovation and company development. Basic definitions dealing with solved problems are described here as well. Various factors of innovation performance development are being carried out with the help of secondary and finally also primary research in Czech companies.

Expansion of innovative potential in terms of SMEs
Holoubek, Petr ; Mikulec, Luděk (advisor)
The dissertation deals with the issue of potential for innovation in small and mid-sized business environments. Innovation is becoming ever more important as it helps businesses to stay competitive in the global economy. The same applies in this era of economic crisis. Innovation is very trendy, but huge sums spent on innovation, no matter how high, do not guarantee that it will be spent effectively. As a result, innovation must be deliberate and targeted. It assumes that a company knows its overall innovation potential and is capable of enhancing it if necessary. This dissertation proceeds within the aforementioned context. It begins with a comprehensive theory and definition of essential terms. This abstract of domestic and foreign bibliography reflects historic and contemporary notions related to innovation. The theoretical part is followed by the analysis of the current state of the issue from the perspective of small and mid-sized companies in the Czech Republic. The analysis consists in a modified research by the Czech Statistical Office and in my own primary questionnaire survey. The output of the aforementioned research consists in finding of weaknesses in the innovation potential of companies and acquiring of relevant data for corroboration or refutation of postulated hypotheses, based on partial goals of this paper. The next chapter proposes a model for the calculation of the summary corporate innovation potential index, whose aim is to find weaknesses in the company without having to carry out complex comparisons through long-term research. Another logical follow-up is the proposal section, providing small and mid-sized businesses with recommendations and solution proposals to strengthen individual partial factors of innovation potential. Application of the aforementioned recommendations in sequential steps, beginning with theoretic understanding, through analysis to implementation of proposed solutions should contribute to expansion of innovation potential in specific small and mid-sized businesses.
