Opportunities and Threats for the Strategic Development of Ukraine's Economy until 2030

The process of strategic development of Ukraine's economy is largely complicated by the presence of a hot vase of military operations on the territory of the state. Nevertheless, for the post-war recovery, it is necessary to develop key areas of economic development today. Given the current level of GDP, which has decreased by 4% compared to the pre-war period, and the outflow of capital investments, which amounted to almost 50%. Given the relevance of the research topic, its purpose can be defined as a generalisation of approaches to the development of directions for the strategic development of Ukraine's economy with specification of opportunities and threats until 2030. The study used a systematic review of the scientific literature with a focus on publications from the last five years to ensure that the analysis of Ukraine's economic development strategy is up-to-date and relevant. The research methods included the construction of a strategic map to outline key areas of economic recovery, complemented by a SWOT analysis to assess opportunities, threats, strengths, and weaknesses. Based on the results of the literature search, 40 scientific papers were selected from the Web of Science and Scopus databases that are directly related to the research topic. It is proved that during the period of post-war recovery and the creation and further implementation of the economic growth strategy, emphasis should be placed on ensuring the following areas of development of the Ukrainian economy: creating a favourable and maximally transparent investment climate to attract investors; countering demographic changes and creating conditions for the return of the population that left Ukraine at the beginning of the war; diversifying economic processes and the economic potential of the State; ensuring the restoration of the energy sector In addition, in the process of developing the topic, a strategic map for the implementation of strategic directions for ensuring Ukraine's economic development until 2030 was created. The SWOT analysis has identified both opportunities and threats in implementing the action plan, with the main condition being the end of active hostilities in the country.

Strategic Planning in Realizing Effective Schools in Vocational Schools

The development of strategic planning in the education system is urgent in creating effective schools, namely schools that have work processes that are consistent with the planning context. Meanwhile, strategic planning is planning that focuses on achieving the school's vision, mission and goals. In an effort to optimize strategic planning, sensitivity to changes in strategy is needed, respect for work risks, having a solid work team, creative, proactive, responsive to changes and problems, creative and innovative, and having high dedication to achieving goals according to targets, hopes and needs, demands and ability adjustments. This research was conducted through a qualitative approach, using technical case studies at several vocational high schools and resulted in the conclusion that the strategic planning development process includes 5 components that must be considered in school management, namely: (a) Strategy for achieving vision, mission and goals; (b) Strength of Planning Consistency; (c) Strengthening team collaboration; (4) Risk Management; and (5) the effectiveness of monitoring and evaluating the achievement of goals and the realization of effective schools

Возможные пути совершенствования законодательства, регламентирующего уголовную ответственность за злоупотребление должностными полномочиями

This article discusses the problematic issues of generalization and systematization of proposals for improving criminal legislation regulating liability for abuse of official authority. Corruption-related crimes have a fairly ex-tensive set of consequences and have a negative impact on the strategic development processes of our coun-try. They act as the strongest deterrent to the socio-economic development of the country, which makes it pos-sible to consider corruption as a phenomenon threatening state and public security. As part of the research the problems of criminalization of the designated criminal phenomena are studied, proposals to improve the crim-inal legislation providing for liability for abuse of official powers (Аrticle 285 of the Criminal Code of the Rus-sian Federation), taking into account the relationship of this criminal act with corruption manifestations are de-veloped. As a result of the study, the author proposes to make adjustments to the content of Article 285 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation.

An artificial neural network for predicting air traffic demand based on socio-economic parameters

Over the past five years, emerging economies have consistently progressed toward achieving greater economic independence. The aviation industry has played a significant role in driving this progress. Accurately forecasting the future demand for air travel is crucial for making long-term commitments to these economies. The findings of this study provide valuable insights into the provision of low-cost passenger carrier demand. They can assist low-cost carriers, airports, airport consultants, and government agencies in their strategic planning and development processes. The primary objective of this study is to identify and evaluate artificial intelligence-based solutions, specifically, Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), to determine the most effective model for projecting domestic demand for low-cost carriers. The study analyzes nine variables that impact the accuracy of predicting domestic air passenger demand in emerging countries using a Multilayer Feed-Forward Backpropagation Neural (MFFBPN) network. The performance of the developed ANN model for predicting air passenger demand is assessed through training, validation, and testing using 240 data sets. The evaluation metrics employed, including mean square error (MSE), root mean square error (RMSE), accuracy, precision, sensitivity, and specificity, indicate the effectiveness of the developed ANN model, with results of 0.0019 for MSE, 0.0440 for RMSE, 0.92 for accuracy, 0.92 for precision, 0.93 for sensitivity, and 0.95 for specificity. We show that modeling based on artificial intelligence approaches and ANN is more effective than conventional linear regression models.

THE ABILITY TO CONTROL SPACE AND PROPERTY IN A MUNICIPALITY

The author's research is based on the need for control over the development of the public space of the municipality by its residents. The article is devoted to the study of the processes of formation of the public space of the city of Perm. The author shows that with today's approach to the processes of forming public space, a number of documents are mainly executed, but attention is not paid to the needs of city residents. Proposals have been formed for the development of urban public space and control over municipal property within the framework of the Strategy of Socio-economic Development o. In practice, the author presented a decision on the need to “digitize” municipal property, which was included in the draft Strategy for the socio-economic development of the municipality and in the plans (road maps) of subordinate institutions. The development of information systems, the growth of infrastructure services, an increase in the amount of processed and stored information in databases shows the need to increase the working capacity of service equipment and the volume of data storage systems, which in turn will lead to the need to determine a single method for assessing the result of using digital technologies, which in turn the queue will lead to the need to protect the results obtained f the city of Perm. It is presented in the analysis of materials characterizing the use of methods of analysis and systematization of theoretical fundamental research, applied developments and documentation. An analysis of the practice of project management and the specifics of the regulatory framework can make it possible to identify problematic points in the application of project management technologies at the municipal level: lack of synchronization of the processes of strategic socio-economic development, portfolio management and budget planning; lack of external expertise of the proposed results of government projects with justification of their effectiveness, sufficiency and necessity for local communities. The results of the study can be used in the development of public spaces of municipalities.

Educational change in a crisis: what has changed and what is here to stay in undergraduate teaching and learning in General Practice.

The aim of the study was to explore the decisions and decision-making strategies employed by academic GPs tasked with adapting the delivery of undergraduate general practice education curricula to virtual platforms during the COVID-19 pandemic and to investigate how their experiences of this adaptation might influence the development of future curricula. Approaching the study from a constructivist grounded theory (CGT) perspective, we recognised that experiences shape perception, and an individual's 'truths' are socially constructed. Nine academic GPs from three university GP departments participated in semistructured interviews conducted via Zoom©. Anonymised transcripts were iteratively analysed, generating codes, categories, and concepts using a constant comparative approach. The study was approved by the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland (RCSI) Research Ethics Committee. Participants described the transition to online delivery of the curriculum as a 'response approach'. The elimination of in-person delivery necessitated the changes rather than any strategic development process. With varying levels of experience in eLearning, participants described the need for and engagement with collaboration both internally within institutions and externally between institutions. Virtual patients were developed to replicate learning in a clinical environment. How these adaptions were evaluated by learners differed across the institutions. The value and limitations of student feedback as a driver for change differed between participants. Two institutions plan to incorporate aspects of blended learning going forward. Participants recognised the impact of limited social engagement between peers on social determinants of learning. Prior experience in eLearning appeared to colour participants' perceptions of its value; those experienced in online delivery were inclined to recommend some level of continuation post-pandemic. We now need to consider which elements of undergraduate education can be delivered effectively online into the future. Maintaining the socio-cultural learning environment is of critical importance but must be balanced by efficient, informed and strategic educational design.

How to renew business strategy to achieve sustainability and circularity? A process model of strategic development in incumbent technology companies

AbstractStrategic development to promote sustainability and circularity challenges incumbents to fundamentally renew their way of doing business. However, the management of this type of strategic development process, that is, strategic renewal aiming at achieving sustainability, remains largely unknown. Therefore, we investigated what constitutes incumbents' strategic renewal aimed at achieving sustainability and how to manage each stage of this process. We conducted a single‐case study of the incumbent tech company, Neste Oyj, which is renewing from a fossil‐based business to a sustainable and circular business. We analyzed multisourced interview‐ and document‐based data collected from a 25‐year longitudinal case study by applying a processual approach and the critical incident technique. We proposed an empirically based process model of business strategy renewal comprising five stages, each of which follows the subprocesses of strategic formulation, implementation, and evaluation. The findings and the process model extend the theoretical understanding of incumbents' business strategy development to achieve sustainability and circularity. The proposed model will enable managers to understand what management issues to focus on and what actions are needed at each stage of the strategic renewal process.

The article is devoted to the issues of structuring the content of the understanding of "instrumental support of the process of strategic development of the business model of airlines" to identify the content, objective, methodological and instrumental content of this process, which is an important core of revival, operation and development of airlines in terms of transformational processes in the economy. The author connects the imperatives of content of the process in a single outline, which includes: methodological, functional, economic; social, organizational, legal and informational content of the process of ensuring the process of strategic development of the business model of airlines. The objective content of the process is represented by economic systems and strategic management business processes. In turn, the methodological content combines a number of proposed principles, methods and tools for managing the strategic development of airlines. Applied content, according to the author, is expressed by the cumulative and synergistic effects of using the proposed tools in the process of strategic management of the business model of the airline. The author considers the instrumental support of the process of strategic development of the airline business model through a system of organizational-economic, analytical-diagnostic and control-monitoring tools, which are designed to comprehensively ensure the effective development of the airline in the market in the long run. The author's model is based on two imperatives, first, the objects of strategic development management are determined by the direct composition of economic systems in accordance with functional and structural approaches; secondly, the objects of strategic management are reflected as specific phenomena and processes that are formed and implemented within the strategic cycle of management of business models of airlines. The article notes that the use of the proposed tools can ensure the strategic development of airlines, but should take into account a number of features inherent in different stages of the strategic management process, which will use appropriate analytical tools in managing the business model of the airline.

The relevance of the study is due to the realities of modern reality, requiring managers at all levels to implement the principles of strategic thinking and strategic management in the activities of their own management systems to ensure their efficiency and sustainable development, the effectiveness of which is. The purpose of the study is to develop an integrated mechanism for instrumental support of strategic development of the business model of the airline, which will be the basis of the algorithmic model of instrumental support in the overall process of strategic management of aviation enterprises. The theoretical and methodological basis of the study was a system-structural approach, which considers the process of strategic management of the business model as a holistic structured system, which is also part of enterprise management as a whole, logical analysis, systems approach and more. It is established that the instrumental support of strategic development of the airline business model is represented by the following three contours: conceptual bases of the mechanism of instrumental support of the process of strategic development of the airline business model, conceptual support of strategic development and strategic management of airline development. The article focuses on the quality of information support of the studied mechanism, which is based on the legislative field, as well as a number of internal and external flows on which depends the effectiveness of financial, marketing, production strategy, personnel management strategies and investment activities. Particular attention is paid to the tools of tar-geting the airline, namely: study of the environment of the airline; development and planning of airline strategy; implementation of airline strategy and strategic control of airline development. It is noted that the choice of tools is individual for each company depending on the purpose of its activities and the chosen business model. The study was the basis for developing an algorithmic model of tooling in the overall process of strategic management of airline development, which in turn will increase the degree of control over changing environmental factors, as the strategic management process will be carried out using the most acceptable and effective mechanism of its tooling.

Regional and Industry-Specific Approach to the Formation of the Water Management Complex Development Strategy

The level of the water management complex development affects the state of the resource potential of the region and its structural and sectoral features. The purpose of this article is to reveal the relations and interdependence of the processes of strategic development of the water management complex and regional economy; to form recommendations that contribute to the development of these relations. The problem of forming a strategy for the water management complex development is considered within the framework of the sustainable development concept, which takes socio-economic and environmental aspects into account. As a result of the study the influence of the water management complex on the socio-economic potential of the southern Russian regions was analyzed. Scenario variants of the water management complex development in the regions are identified, their typology is carried out. The necessity of forming a mechanism of interdepartmental coordination to improve the efficiency of the management system for the strategic development of the water management complex is justified. Conclusions are drawn about the need to supplement the basin approach to water resources management with a regional-sectoral approach. This will make it possible to link the development strategy of the water management complex with the sectoral structural changes in the region. The results of the study can be used by regional authorities and water resources management to solve the problems of increasing the sustainability of water and regional ecosystems.

THE DEVELOPMENT OF STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT PLANS FOR CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT, VEHICLES, AND TOOLS UNDER THE TRANSPORTATION POLICY TRANSFORMATIONS IN THAILAND

This article aims to propose the equipment, vehicle, and tool (EVT) management plans appropriate to the department of rural roads (DRR) in the current situation. This situation is influenced by the government policies that constrain human resources, with budget limitations and new forms of funding procedures. These factors along with technology advancement have challenged the DRR to establish an EVT management plan. To create the plan, the effective inquiry as part of design thinking is used to assess influences through the focus group and content analysis method. The results indicate that the DRR project development role is changed. This change results in four strategic management plans in the EVT. These strategic plans are concerning the EVT management system, EVT procurement and accessibility, unburden and support DRR staff, and finally EVT maintenance and disposal. Besides, the process of EVT strategic management plan development is described and more concerned with the engagement of the policymakers. Therefore, this report facilitates the other public agencies, particularly in the developing countries, in their plan development, based on multifactor real-world settings.

Down the Sewer: How Semi-Informal Tanneries Management Policies Affect Residual Water Disposal in Colombian Business Scenarios

In Colombia, the issue of waste discharges derived from the tanning process to water bodies is a scenario that has been widely documented. However, measurement exercises have failed to identify improvements in this process that integrates administrative knowledge with concepts of labor, social and environmental welfare. The present article is the culmination of research conducted within the framework of the project “Estudio comparativo de la administración y las repercusiones socio-ambientales en las empresas del sector de curtiembre. Case Bogotá (Barrio San Benito), Case Barranquilla and Case Villapinzón (Cundinamarca)” (Comparative study of the administration and the socio-environmental repercussions in tanning sector companies. Case Bogotá (Barrio San Benito), Case Barranquilla and Case Villapinzón (Cundinamarca)) concerning the administrative practices and the negative effects derived from the absence of management systems for negative externalities caused to the environment by companies in the tanning sector. The study was developed as follows: initially, a systematic documentary review of the laws, decrees and regulations that have a direct or indirect impact on the tanning sector was carried out, followed by field work using data collection instruments (questionnaires) in the San Benito neighborhood (Bogotá), in the town of Villapinzón (Cundinamarca) and in the city of Barranquilla (Atlántico), where there are formal and informal work clusters dedicated to the leather industry. The objective of this study was to identify the relationship between administrative styles and formal processes of strategic planning activities development with the adoption of dumping control systems and other aspects related to environmental management, oriented to the organizational level. Based on the above, the information was analyzed with emphasis on those companies with a common denominator in their control strategies in relation to those policies that were the result of administrative and business practices and that finally led to the desired effects in the social, environmental and economic spheres. Finally, the discussion section focuses on the recognition of these good practices and the possibility that they could be replicated by other actors on the global level.

Influence of bespoke non-commodity production on the development strategy of production systems

The paper presents a new approach to the development strategy of the production system based on a formalized description of bifurcations that occur in the creative activity of specialists. The goal of the development of the production system in an effort to approach the concept of a bespoke non-commodity production is justified. It is shown that an effective producer of the strategic development process is a "bifurcation producer", which in turn is the fruit of creative activity. As the first measure of evaluating the effectiveness of the strategy for the development of the production system, an approximate method for calculating the similarity coefficient of bifurcation producers to bespoke non-commodity production is proposed.

An analysis of the strategic plan development processes of major public organisations funding health research in nine high-income countries worldwide

BackgroundThere have been claims that health research is not satisfactorily addressing healthcare challenges. A specific area of concern is the adequacy of the mechanisms used to plan investments in health research. However, the way organisations within countries devise research agendas has not been systematically reviewed. This study seeks to understand the legal basis, the actors and the processes involved in setting research agendas in major public health research funding organisations.MethodsWe reviewed information relating to the formulation of strategic plans by 11 public funders in nine high-income countries worldwide. Information was collected from official websites and strategic plan documents in English, French, Italian and Spanish between January 2019 and December 2019, by means of a conceptual framework and information abstraction form.ResultsWe found that the formulation of a strategic plan is a common and well-established practice in shaping research agendas across international settings. Most of the organisations studied are legally required to present a multi-year strategic plan. In some cases, legal provisions may set rules for actors and processes and may establish areas of research and/or types of research to be funded. Commonly, the decision-making process involves both internal and external stakeholders, with the latter being generally government officials and experts, and few examples of the participation of civil society. The process also varies across organisations depending on whether there is a formal requirement to align to strategic priorities developed by an overarching entity at national level. We also found that, while actors and their interactions were traceable, information, sources of information, criteria and the mechanisms/tools used to shape decisions were made less explicit.ConclusionsA complex picture emerges in which multiple interactive entities appear to shape research plans. Given the complexity of the influences of different parties and factors, the governance of the health research sector would benefit from a traceable and standardised knowledge-based process of health research strategic planning. This would provide an opportunity to demonstrate responsible budget stewardship and, more importantly, to make efforts to remain responsive to healthcare challenges, research gaps and opportunities.
