The humanistic turn in management is rapidly developing in the broader international academic context, as well as in Poland, where it even has acquired an official status as a specific academic discipline.

The article aims at launching the process of filling this gap by presenting the genesis and proposing characteristics and the main leading principles of humanistic management.

Routes dedicated to the figures from the world of culture are still rare, although, due to the extent of the impact and variety of the objects belonging to them, they are the best way to create the images of an artist and to promote them, …

About Relations Between Humanities And Management: Mésalliance Or Happy Relationship?, Katarzyna Barańska Nov 2013

About Relations Between Humanities And Management: Mésalliance Or Happy Relationship?, Katarzyna Barańska

European Management Studies

The text discusses the relations between humanities and management sciences. The basic assumptions presented in the article concern interpretation capabilities of management processes in terms of: “management means changing” and “management means bonds creation”. Changing refers to both quantitative and qualitative dimensions – here one can perceive the connections between complementary economic and humanistic descriptions. It is important to draw attention exceeding a current point of view in which the organization is regarded as a system. Instead, it is suggested that one should look at the consequences and responsibilities of organization management regarded as a cultural (and non-cultural) system. The …


Humanistic Approach To Organization And Management, Grażyna Prawelska-Skrzypek, Marta Lenartowicz Nov 2013

Humanistic Approach To Organization And Management, Grażyna Prawelska-Skrzypek, Marta Lenartowicz

European Management Studies

This article aims to systematize the fundamentals of organization and management studies practiced as a humanistic discipline. General characteristics of the humanities have been used here for a reinterpretation of the internal division of management science into several paradigms. A large group of them turns out to be consistent with traditions and tenets of the humanities – being un-rigorous, interdisciplinary, and subjective. The areas of interest, objectives, and research methods employed by the humanistic approach to management research make it distinct and different from the research conducted within the economic mainstream. The authors recall voices that point to two kinds …

Management Of Value Co-Creation In The Media – From The Chain To The Constellations, Jan Kreft

European Management Studies

The new challenge of previously passive recipients becoming actual users indicates the need for a change for media companies at the level of strategic management.

At the same time, due to the erosion of boundaries of media companies, it is becoming necessary to coordinate management of relationship with the users as a part of the so-called constellation of users’ network.
