Summary
The global megatrend of emerging technologies is colliding to disrupt both - business and society. Small and medium-sized companies face the problem of a very tentative adaption to digital innovations and New Work. The aim of the research is to identify what digital and entrepreneurial competences are required to a concept of New Work orientated labour market Referring to this perception, this research aims to understand how digitalisation changes the role of employees in a digital and automated world. The novelty of the research: the study helped to determine how SMEs perceive digitization processes in business and enabled the comparison of employers 'and employees' attitudes in assessing the need for digitization and entrepreneurial competences in the German (Bavarian) and Lithuanian labor markets. The methods applied in the research include analysis of literature sources, systematization, synthesis, generalization, and comparison in the theoretical part, and quantitative research, i.e., a questionnaire survey and data processing methods, in the empirical research
