Abstract (2. Language): 
Today, the redefinition of competition and its ever diversifying characteristics drive enterprises to search for new remedies. Besides, the ordinary solutions that businesses learn in competition might lead them to dead ends. This could be possible through the correct exploitation of tacit knowledge by businesses and through acquiring new competencies in the performance cycle. The purpose of this study is to describe research on the relationship between tacit knowledge, innovation and performance in assuring competi-tive advantage, depending on an empirical study made in a business operating in the textile industry lo-cated in Istanbul, Turkey. The data obtained through the use of questionnaires, regarding the study, was analyzed with the SPSS 11.5 program by also using factor analysis, correlation analysis, regression analy-sis and complementary statistical methods. As a result of the study, it is evident that there is high level of correlation and significance between tacit knowledge, innovation and performance. It was observed that tacit knowledge has considerable impact on innovation and performance. Besides, innovation has sub-stantial effect on business performance as well.

Abstract (Original Language): 
Günümüzde, rekabetin yeniden tanımlanması ve her geçen gün daha da karmaşıklaşması, işletmeleri yeni çözüm arayışlarına itmektedir. Bununla beraber alışılmış çarelerin kullanılması, işletmeleri çıkmazlara götürebilmektedir. Bu ise, işletmelerin örtülü bilgiyi doğru kullanımı, yenilik ve performans sarmalında yepyeni yeteneklere sahip olmaları ile mümkün görülmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, örtülü bilgi, yenilik ve performans arasındaki ilişkiyi araştırmaktır. Araştırmanın uygulama aşaması, İstanbul ili merkezli tekstil sektöründe faaliyet gösteren bir işletmede yapılmıştır. Araştırmadan elde edilen veriler SPSS 11.5 programı ile, faktör analizi, korelasyon analizi, regresyon analizi ve tanımlayıcı istatistik teknikler yardımıyla değerlendirilmiştir. Çalışma sonucunda, örtülü bilgi, yenilik ve performans arasında çeşitli bulgular elde edilmiştir. Elde edilen bulgulara göre, örtülü bilgi, yenilik ve performans arasında yüksek düzeyde anlamlı bir ilişkilerin varlığı gözlenmiştir. Yine örtülü bilginin, yenilik ve performans üzerinde önemli etkilerinin olduğu görülmüştür. Ayrıca yeniliğin işletme performansı üzerinde de önemli bir etkisinin olduğu görülmüştür.
