The paper is devoted to identifying the level of social safety of society, taking into account the indicators of shadow economy, and developing its strategic scenarios as a component of sustainable development of Ukraine by 2030. The authors used the modern methods of normalisation, threshold vector determination, and dynamic weight coefficients in order to identify the level of social safety of society. The authors developed the structure and a list of indicators considering three components of social safety: The standard of living, the demographic component, and the quality of life. This method allows determining the list and severity of threats, comparing the dynamics of integral indices with integral thresholds in one scale, identifying the state of security, and defining strategic goals and strategies. The suggested approach is universal and can be used by any country, region, economic activity, or business to develop evidence-based medium-to-long-term sustainable development scenarios.
The approaches to modeling competencies have been explored in the article and a model of a strategically oriented approach to the development of management competencies of the company "Industry 4.0" has been built. An algorithmic "fuzzy logic" model to assess the input managers' competencies and obtain a final assessment as a parameter for achieving strategic goals has been formed. A methodology for using the "fuzzy logic" toolkit to assess managers' competencies in obtaining the pair impact assessment, which forms a new level of the comprehensive assessment of managers' work, has been developed.
The author of the article attempted to analyse research methods which are to affect, in a professional and complex way, conducting of a correct and reliable research process, with consideration given to practical and theoretical aspects of management. The management science methodology along with the management methodology were discussed-from fundamentalism to pluralism. The development of scientific knowledge requires some discipline and professional science-related approach. That is why, in order to select a correct research methods for the sake of carried-out research, one is required to be familiar with differences between determined research methods or approaches in social science methodology. While determining the research problem it is difficult to select a single method allowing to fully diagnose the given problem. It is necessary to employ diverse research methods allowing to provide answers to the posed problem. Thus, it is a necessity to make use of numerous methods and research approaches. On the basis of theoretical achievements and the author's own experience, he pondered on the original character of procedures as to research in the management sciences.
The current approaches to estimating the level of energy security are based on applying a comprehensive approach to selecting the factors that affect energy security and the dynamics of processes in this domain. This article reveals the application of the model of energy security estimation and strategizing based on the systemic description of energy security as an object of management: the integral system, elements and connections, functions, processes, and the system’s material. At the same time, this model is able to take into account the dynamics of technological, political, economic, and other factors operating in the country and on the global arena. The energy security estimation model developed uses a modern methodology of integrated estimation: a multiplicative form of the integrated index, a formalized definition of the safe existence limits in order to provide scientific substantiation of the threshold vector, a modified rationing method, the principal components method, and the sliding matrix method to substantiate dynamic weighting coefficients. The paper demonstrates the systemic approach application to shaping strategic goals in the energy security domain in the context of sustainable development; the trajectory of energy security development is calculated by the method of strategizing that applies the principle “future is determined by the trajectory to the future” instead of the classical forecasting “past determines the future”. In general, the article shows the possibility of unifying the process of formalizing energy security (according to the needs of the researcher: country, industry, energy network, supply chain) as an object of management, estimating energy security status, and strategizing the regulatory sphere transformation in accordance with the target values for monitoring the effectiveness of management.
The article presents methodical requirements for the restructuring programme in the context of strategic management and the shaping of strategic forms. The author described the corporate restructuring model as a basis for transformations designed to achieve a knowledge-based organisation. The author attempted to address the following question: How should the knowledge management model be perceived in modern companies? Furthermore, the importance of organisational forms in the corporate restructuring process was underlined. The restructuring process should be carried out on the basis of specific restructuring objectives resulting from the scope of changes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
