Abstract (EN): In this paper, we have chosen to focus on some aspects of the new profile of the knowledge organization professionals. First, we discuss the dimensions of knowledge organization in a current globalized and competitive scenario as an inherent characteristic of any organizational action, a vital element in the production of social reality. Secondly, we highlight the skills of the knowledge organization professionals in the field of new technologies and knowledge distribution. In third place, we approach the restructuring of organizational environment considering the perspective of the global labor market complexity. Finally, we present our reflections on the knowledge organization professional skills and competencies with respect to the organization's expectations and demands in the digital age.
