Authors: Dziubek, Ireneusz T.; Manasterska, Tatiana
Abstract: PURPOSE: The article presents results of research investigating the issue of proposed
changes and their influence on the functioning of the state’s organs and
organizations dealing with crisis management in the light of government bill on civil
protection and the state of natural disasters.; DESIGN/METHODOLOGY/APPROACH: Normative material analysis and applied dogma

includes a lot of significant legal concerns.; PRACTICAL IMPLICATIONS: It has been indicated that the draft law on civil protection
and the state of natural disasters does not meet basic legislative standards, and
some of the proposed solutions are not compatible with the Constitution of the

Authors: Ludwiczak, Anna; Czarnecki, Maciej
Abstract: PURPOSE: The aim of the article is to verify a hypothesis stating that financial security of
companies has been significantly violated in the scope of economic crisis caused by COVID19 pandemics. It has been assumed that traditional indicators of financial liquidity have
declined and establishing the scale of the phenomenon constitutes a scientific problem.; DESIGN/METHODOLOGY/APPROACH: The research has been conducted as exemplified by a given
sector: consumer goods and retail trade on the basis of data adapted from EMIS database.
The research has regarded years 2018-2021. Statistical characteristics of two features have
been used: current ratio indicator and quick ratio indicator, determining the location,
spread, asymmetry and flattening characteristics. The analysis constructed in such a
multidimension way was to enable a proper verification of the hypothesis stated.; FINDINGS: The results of the research has not verified the research hypothesis positively: the
companies of a given sector had not compounded, and even improved their financial security
measured with the use of traditional liquidity indicators.; PRACTICAL IMPLICATIONS: The conducted research regarding the liquidity management in
companies in a extraordinary time od crisis emphasizes the multifaceted nature and
complexity of issues connected with financial security; simultaneously discussing the
statement that the entrepreneurs’ concern over the extending period of uncertainty, lead
them to a certain mobilization to secure from lack of liquidity and forced more awareness in
the topic of liquidity.; ORIGINALITY/VALUE: In the process of data analysis certain characteristic features were
observed: the average indicators in the sector are much higher than middle indicators which
indicates the need to have a closer look at average data. In a researched sector most of the
enterprises does not achieve the results suggested for liquidity indicators.2022-01-01T00:00:00ZPartnership and collaborative contracting in the procurement of public construction works projects in the EU and in PolandLissowski, Olgierd/library/oar/handle/123456789/1049262023-01-05T11:27:28Z2022-01-01T00:00:00ZTitle: Partnership and collaborative contracting in the procurement of public construction works projects in the EU and in Poland
Authors: Lissowski, Olgierd
Abstract: PURPOSE: The purpose of the paper is to present some findings as to the promotion and
inclusion in the EU and Polish public procurement laws applicable to the delivery of large
public construction works and infrastructural projects, approaches and solutions proposed
by concepts of public-private partnership (PPP) and collaborative contracting (CC).; DESIGN/METHODOLOGY/APPROACH: Institutional approach. Basic research questions are: (1)
how and to what extent the key approaches and solutions proposed by the partnership and
collaborative contracting concepts are promoted and reflected in the EU and Polish public
procurement law, (2) how the performance of public procurement systems in the EU Member
States is currently measured and if it takes into account the promotion of partnership and
collaborative contracting criteria.; FINDINGS: Regulatory approaches and solutions proposed by the partnership and
collaborative contracting concepts are to a considerable extent promoted and reflected in
the EU and Polish public procurement law, however without compromising other important
principles and criteria, such as promotion of fair competition or value for money. Single
Market Scoreboard measures the performance of public procurement systems using the
limited number of formal evaluation criteria and indicators important in the contract
formation phase.; PRACTICAL IMPLICATIONS: Promoting partnership and collaborative contracting in public
procurement of construction works and infrastructure projects should not compromise fair
competition and material criteria of value for money. Further studies are needed on the
conditions of effectiveness of partnership and collaborative contracting in the construction
works and infrastructure projects.; ORIGINALITY/VALUE: The article points to important problem of the poor performance of large
public works and infrastructure projects and selected, potential institutional remedies to that
problem, applicable at the project’ procurement stage.2022-01-01T00:00:00ZThe one who does not have knowledge cannot manageMaczasek, Anna/library/oar/handle/123456789/1049152023-01-05T09:21:47Z2022-01-01T00:00:00ZTitle: The one who does not have knowledge cannot manage
Authors: Maczasek, Anna
Abstract: PURPOSE: Modern management has fallen into a serious crisis. There are two main reasons
for such a state of affairs, lack of historical awareness connected with the origins of
management and lack of knowledge and insufficient educational level of the contemporary
managerial staff, shaped by wrongly understood, so called practical abilities and deprived of
the access to knowledge. They were subjected to mass education of the working force instead
of being taught to think as an attribute of educated people. The purpose of this article is to
indicate the main reason of the management crisis.; DESIGN/METHODOLOGY/APPROACH: Three scientific methods have been adapted. 1.
Observation: passive and transparent. 2. Interviews: narrative, due to which there was a
possibility to obtain a report connected with a researched aspect. The report, not being a
sum of questionnaire answers, constituted a condition of a spontaneous respondent’s
narration, not disrupted by a research intervention; IDI (Individual In-depth Interview)
individual conversations with respondents. 3. Literature review.; FINDINGS: The results of the conducted (initiative) research, without a shadow of a doubt
shows that people holding managerial positions aged up to 50 years old, lack general
knowledge, psychology but most of all real solid education. Why? Because it has been
replaced by mock education. It is therefore obvious that lack of education, insufficient
education, lack of general and psychological knowledge do not allow for proper and
effective participation in the role called management. What is especially apparent: such a
reality diagnosis has been stated by 57 respondents who graduated from higher education
schools based on Bologna Process.; PRACTICAL IMPLICATIONS: The results of the research can be used in a simple and at the same
time difficult way – come back to real, solid education model, also with respect to the future
managerial staff. Those who already manage, should be able to gain proper general and
psychological knowledge and managerial knowledge instead of empty words or information
from inexperienced people. Both groups should be given education instead of appearances of
education.; ORIGINALITY/VALUE: The originality of the research and its value is based on showing a
specific reason instead of the one that is comfortable or accepted as proper or welcome.2022-01-01T00:00:00Z
