Abstract

The approaches to forming the strategy of higher education institutions development are investigated. The target approach is determined to be the priority. The sequence of forming of the strategy of higher education institutions development according to the target approach is formulated and described as follows: the definition of the purpose of the strategy; formation of a strategic imperative of development; study of the internal and external environment of the institution of higher education; identifying opportunities and obstacles for development; choice of development model; detailing (if necessary) strategies in separate functional strategies; formation of strategic maps for strategy implementation. Each stage of strategy formation is described. The strategic imperatives of the development of the higher education institutions are recommended to be further elaborated in line with strategic development, since they are the main priorities and long-term orientations. If the goal of the strategic development of higher education institutions can be descriptive, strategic imperatives should be described in detail, and justified in the form of specific strategic indicators, which level should be reached in the process of implementation of the strategy. The main strategic models of the development of higher education institutions are determined depending on their market position and strategic development scenarios on the basis of evaluation of internal and external factors. The generalization of the research of competitive positions of higher education institutions allows distinguishing such competitive positions as "leaders", "following the leaders", "middle peasants", and "outsiders". On the other hand, strategic development depends on the potential of enterprise development and its strategic orientations, which is reflected in the development scenarios. Moreover, they distinguish such strategic development scenarios as pessimistic, most likely and optimistic. The importance of the formation of strategic maps was determined. The formulation of information in the field of development in the form of strategic cards actually visualizes what indicator is necessary to "move" the institution of higher education in order to achieve the strategic goal and who is responsible for it. The strategy of development of the higher education institutions is to be implemented on the basis of developed strategic maps. А strategic map for the direction of development of "International Positioning" was proposed.

Highlights

Ukraine's strategic development depends to a large extent on the strategic development of its branches
Successful functioning in a dynamic competitive environment, overcoming of constantly arising problems and obstacles to development, achievement of key indicators of success require the formation of higher education institutions (HEI) modern, adequate conditions for management, scientifically based strategy of development
If the goal of the strategic development of the HEI can be descriptive, strategic imperatives should be described in detail, and justified in the form of specific strategic indicators, which level should be reached in the process of implementation of the strategy

Summary

Introduction

Ukraine's strategic development depends to a large extent on the strategic development of its branches. The formation of such a strategy for the development of institutions of higher education requires the use of an effective methodological toolkit for strategic planning. The analysis of existing studies reflects the lack of a comprehensive integrated approach to the formation of a strategy for the development of institutions of higher education, adequate conditions of management, in accordance with the requirements of time and society. The main purpose of the article is to generalize the main theoretical and methodological approaches to the formation of a strategy for the development of institutions of higher education. When forming a strategy for the development of institutions of higher education, it is best to use a targeted approach that allows, on the basis of the established long-term goal, to diversify it into goals, different, in terms of achievement and functional affiliation. The strategic map of the direction "International positioning" may look like this (Table 2)
