The sources of the evolution and the change in their behaviours must be searched for in less and less transparent but dynamically changing environment which, on the one hand, creates new opportunities for the functioning and development of enterprises, and, on the other hand, poses new requirements and challenges to them. What determines the effects and future developmental opportunities of business entities and institutions is the speed and the rightness of the identification of changes undergoing in the environment, an adequate analysis and assessment, as well as flexibility and readiness to reorient the activities of enterprises towards the proper organisation of the existing and new structures in relation to the market and crisis situations, perceiving customers and competitors as intrinsic elements of their activity, producing a capability of overcoming the resistance of the environment and creating own strategic potential. Therefore, the key element influencing the quality of this potential is the environment in which enterprises function - in relationship with other entities, in a specific region and in conjunction with the state. The environment influences the elements which constitute it, creates chances and opportunities, requirements and constraints, but also entities of this environment have impact on it, link it to them and define its character. In this way, it becomes more and more complex and volatile, and imposes an implicit need for the evolution of its elements. In consequence, it leads to constant extension of the scope of connections between enterprises and the environment. The scope of these connections concerns not only the technical and economic sphere but it spreads onto the sphere of social, political and cultural problems. Thus, the environment of enterprises makes business entities stay in constant tension and readiness to react to the effects of turbulent changes. The sensitisation of enterprises to these changes may vary a lot and be very complex. It mainly depends on the force of changes, the position of the enterprise on the market and the implemented strategy based on the vision of the future which explains the sense of changes and sets the direction for the activities. As a result, entities functioning in the contemporary economy, regardless of the size or industry in which they oper- ate, the forms of ownership or the way in which they are organised, undertake various ventures as a way of flexible adaptation to market conditions, operating competition and an increase in the effectiveness of operations. In this context, market competition, known since the beginning of the functioning of the market and conducting business activity, has now considerably changed its nature. Today, building competitiveness on the global market implies an inevitable necessity to conquer new and new markets and constantly raise the effectiveness of operations. The survival and development of enterprises in Pobrano z http://repo.pw.edu.pl / Downloaded from Repository of Warsaw University of Technology 2021-10-09 10 Introduction such conditions require not only to understand the principles of entrepreneurship and the functioning of international business, but also to search for new tools of building competitiveness. It bears the need to properly diagnose the determinants of competitiveness, indicate paths of their development, and adjust management systems to the changing management conditions. The consequence may be the statement that contemporary enterprises are under a very strong pressure of changes, the source of which is both the growing complexity and volatility of their macro- and micro-environment and the increasing competition on the market, and following it need for the growth of the effectiveness of management. In economic studies enterprise effectiveness has become not only a basic ordering notion serving the analysis of the assessment of the past, but also an ordering idea in setting new directions

  • Risk Management in Crisis: Winners and Losers During the COVID-19 Pandemic/Piotr Jedynak and Sylwia Bąk
    Risk Management in Crisis Risk management is a domain of management which comes to the fore in crisis. This book looks at risk management under crisis conditions in the COVID-19 pandemic context. The book synthesizes existing concepts, strategies, approaches and methods of risk management and provides the results of empirical research on risk and risk management during the COVID-19 pandemic. The research outcome was based on the authors’ study on 42 enterprises of different sizes in various sectors, and these firms have either been negatively affected by COVID-19 or have thrived successfully under the new conditions of conducting business activities. The anal- ysis looks at both the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the selected enter- prises and the risk management measures these enterprises had taken in response to the emerging global trends. The book puts together key factors which could have determined the enterprises’ failures and successes. The final part of the book reflects on how firms can build resilience in chal- lenging times and suggests a model for business resilience. The comparative anal- ysis will provide useful insights into key strategic approaches of risk management. Piotr Jedynak is Professor of Management. He works at Jagiellonian University in Cracow, Poland, where he holds the positions of Vice-Rector for Financial and HR Policy and Head of the Management Systems Department. He specializes in risk management, strategic management and management systems. He is the author of numerous publications, an auditor and consultant to many public and business organizations.
