The need for stabilization and development of agro-industrial enterprises, especially of the poultry processing sector, market saturation with domestic and imported goods, Ukraine's entry to the WTO as well as increased consumer requirements for quality and safety of products increase competition in the market of poultry meat. This necessitates the implementation of modern technologies into the market behavior of enterprises processing poultry meat, and the elaboration and implementation of a strategy aimed at achieving their strong competitive advantages should be an integral condition for the development of the enterprise. Creation of competitive advantages is the purpose of the enterprise’s strategic management, the determining factor of increasing its competitiveness. For this purpose, domestic enterprises both in domestic and foreign markets need effective tools of strategic management, which are used in the process of building a scientifically based strategy to increase their competitiveness. Its development, taking into account the operating specifics and factors ensuring competitive advantages of enterprises processing poultry meat, requires a systematic reasoning for the choice of the mechanism of its formation. In literature on economics, considerable attention is given to the problems of securing the competitive advantages of enterprises. Important scientific contributions to the development of the theory and practice of competitiveness, as an element of the enterprise’s strategic management, was made by well-known foreign and domestic scientists, in particular G. Azoiev, S. Anokhin, O. Arfiev, I. Bily, I. Blank, Y. Brigkham, V. Vasylenko, O. Vykhansky, V. Ivanov, S. Kozlovsky, L. Kostyrko, S. Pokropyvny, M. Porter, R. Solow, A. Thompson, J. Schumpeter, A. Yudanov and others. To the study of theory, methodology and formation of strategies to achieve competitive advantages, especially in agricultural enterprises in the conditions of increased competition, are devoted works by T. Akymova, V. Andriychuk, L. Berezina, I. Vinichenko, O. Honcharenko, P. Makarenko, M. Malik, L. Melnyk, L. Marmul, L. Mykhailova, O. Oliynyk, P. Sabluk, O. Skydan, I. Cherven, O. Shpychak, O. Shubravska, O. Ulianchenko and others. However, the issues of a systematic approach to building a strategy to increase the competitiveness of agro-industrial enterprises remain insufficiently investigated, as well as the research into its role of ensuring sustainable development of business entities, the use of internal marketing tools for the development of a company’s key competencies, the development of management tools and effective ways of ensuring the effective managerial process, taking into account the specific economic activities of enterprises engaged in poultry meat processing. The above-mentioned necessitated a separate scientific research.

In the last few years, the use of coaching in the management of the business organization has become more and more popular. The new requirements for global environmental behavior and global competition support the established need to improve the tools for managing indoor environment factors that lead to the sustainable formation of competitive advantages and to increasing the efficiency of management. On the other hand, the evolution of the business organization also implies a continuous improvement of the management tools in order to better meet the objectives and increase the effects from the realized activities and processes. This is the argumentation of the defended thesis in the present study, namely: Coaching can be used as a management tool that helps to create sustainable competitive advantages, supports the implementation of organizational goals and positively influences the organization's working climate. In view of the sustainability of the results and benefits to the organization from the use of coaching, it is advisable that it can be done by managers who are specially trained to do so.The aim of the study is to follow the scientific discussion on the essence and specifics of coaching in the management of the business organization. On this basis, to systematize and critically analyze the relevance of coaching as a strategic management tool to increase the individual and complex results of the activities carried out in the organization.In order to achieve the research goal, analysis and synthesis of specialized literature, problematic, systemic and functional analysis are used. In the course of developing the report, focus is placed on the specifics of coaching and its relevance to business organization management, including its potential to be used to form and develop sustainable competitive advantages and achieve strategic success. The term "synergic coaching effect" is used and substantiated.The author's understanding of coaching ability to generate synergic effects is formed on the basis of established direct and indirect benefits to the organization as a result of using coaching to solve different kinds of problems that lead to a general and individual increase in the results of the activities performed, to improving the professional suitability of employees and managers.This statement does not deny the benefits to the organization from using an external coach, as well as the training of employees of the organization for implementing internal coaching. Based on the systematic and analyzed information about the coaching specifics, it is concluded that the organization should train its managers to conduct coaching. In this way, the manager's skills are increased and another problem solving tool is mastered. At the same time, the trust between him and his coaching staff is growing, which can be seen as one of the prerequisites for turning the manager into a leader. Coaching by a manager in the process of solving internal organizational problems, not by an outsider or a trained coach, also saves time, as it misses the stage in which regardless of the type of coaching chosen - whether external or internal with a coach who is not the manager, the latter must get acquainted with the results achieved to take the necessary action.This is another argument in support of the defended thesis that coaching can successfully be used as a strategic tool for managing the business organization.

The labour effi ciency in food retails can be only evaluated by the system of indices which characterize various aspects of labour management. Developing the system of labour efficiency management includes defi ning the aims and valuation objects, choosing the indices structure, methodology, methods and tools of their measurements. The proposed approach to the development of labour efficiency indices system in food retails is based on the M. Hammer and L. Hershman model which consists of the result indices and factor indices such as time consumption, work quality and cost of merchanting service within standards of a particular trading format of food retails. A list of labour efficiency indices has been made based on the public reports of the leading food retails. To evaluate the indices data, the“Traffi c Light” model is suggested. A number of requirements for making labour efficiency reports have been presented.
