Abstract

Aim. Implementation of theoretical and methodological analysis of manage­ment as a complex socio-cultural phenomenon; disclosure of the methodolo­gical and praxeological potential of the theory of management in the training of specialists in the field of management activities. Methods. During the research, there were used such methods as analysis, synthesis, systemic, comparative, structural-functional, and dialectical met­hods. A synergistic methodological approach was used to managing as a complex, multilevel, open system. The theoretical basis of the research is the views of such researchers as K. Matsusita, P. Drucker, I. Adizes, L. Yakokka. Results. The authors prove that the contemporary theory of management appears in at least three dimensions: the methodology, the art of manage­ment activity and the discipline in the system of training specialists in the field of public management and administration. It is substantiated that the methodological function of the theory of management is realized through the formation of the cultural-semantic, the intellectual basis for the making of innovative, conceptual thinking of the subject of management activity. As an art, the philosophy of the administration forms the subject's ability to crea­tively determine priorities, calculate all possible variants of events in conflict situations and make constructive decisions. As a subject matter, the theory of management was developed and implemented in the educational process by the authors within the program of “The Philosophy of Management”. Scientific novelty. For the first time in the scientific discourse, the the­ory of management was considered in three dimensions: methodology, art of administration, as well as an important academic discipline in the struc­ture of modern education. It was demonstrated that the necessary condition for effective administration of systems of any level of complexity is the inte­raction of the three main factors. First factor, this is the world outlook factor that determines the role of values, traditions, customs, culture, mentality in the implementation of effective management activities. Secondly, this is a scientific-methodological factor that consists of a variety of theories and con­cepts where the mechanisms, methods and regularities of management are revealed. Thirdly, this is a praxeological factor, which is essentially represen­ted by various recommendations, guidelines and enactments of contemporary management. The unity of these factors generates the effect of synergy, which leads administration to the level of art creative and productive combination of organization goals, knowledge, skills and abilities of employees, the expec­tations of customers in certain socio-cultural conditions of life. The authors proposed the idea of a new paradigm in the preparation of future managers: reorienting the training of the individual manager to the administrator as a team member, which, due to communication, relevant qualifications, profes­sional skills and creativity, will work effectively and execute team decisions. Practical significance. The obtained results are able to serve as a ben­chmark for improving the training system of professional managers, shif­ting attention from the analysis of the technical components of management (structure, strategy) to the consideration of its intellectual, spiritual poten­tial, where a person becomes the main capital and an understanding of its capabilities and scopes is an important condition for success.
