The article improves the theoretical and methodological foundations of information support for the management of sustainable development of the enterprise. On the basis of a comparative analysis, the author's approach to the essence of the concept of "information flow" is presented, the classification of information flows is expanded. Today, information support of the management decision-making process at enterprises is imperfect. An empirical study was carried out to determine and assess the degree of satisfaction of enterprises of the agro-industrial complex of the Kharkov region with information support. Identified problems in the provision of current and operational information to management personnel; there is no formalization and systematization of it; some enterprises do not use planning, in particular financial planning, which is a significant obstacle to building an effective enterprise for the future. Information support of the enterprise by management levels and information flows is proposed. Based on the tasks facing the information support for the management of sustainable development of an enterprise, an algorithm has been developed for its functioning as a type of activity. It is based on a project-based approach, according to which stages are gradually implemented.

The article analyzes the potential of Russia's “soft power” and its main content components, such as education, ideology and language influence. The author's point is that despite the presence of an impressive potential of soft power, Russia begins to lose positions not only in the far abroad, but also in the post-Soviet space. It is concluded that the reasons for the failures in many areas (including foreign policy) is the state of Russian management personnel. Research and practice clearly demonstrate that the effectiveness of management is directly predetermined by the quality of management decision-making, which in Russia is at a depressingly low level since the culture of thinking in our country is in decline. It is proved that the management of our country consists of people who, firstly, are not professionals, and secondly, are not united by a common integrative idea. This is the source of many failures in the application of “soft power” even in the CIS.

Using a sample of 300 Arab teachers in Israel, we developed a model to analyze how school-based management directly and indirectly (through motivation) affects school effectiveness. The results show that there is a positive relationship between all dimensions of self-management (decision-making, resource and personnel management, availability of resources, and organizational structure) and school effectiveness. In addition, the results show full mediation between resource management, personnel and organizational structure, and school effectiveness through motivation. Theoretical contributions and managerial implications as well as directions for future research are presented.

In order to successfully achieve sustainable development objectives, modern enterprises have to establish a framework and implement appropriate managerial tools for the effective integration of sustainability into business operations. The paper aims to clarify the concept of sustainable development in the mine management context, highlight the main principles of sustainable mining and devise appropriate tools and mechanisms from a managerial viewpoint to implement the strategic sustainability priorities into business practice. Based on a literature review of research on sustainable mine management issues, the main dimensions of the sustainability concept are highlighted and the specific goals corresponding to each of the priority focus areas are identified in the paper. As a result of the study, the key organizational aspects and firm-level mechanisms that should be primarily taken into account from a management decision-making viewpoint to embed the strategic sustainability principles into business practices and corporate activities of mining operators are pointed out. From a practical perspective, the findings can be used by mining operators for defining strategic sustainability priorities and setting related corporate objectives, as well as devising guidelines for the effective implementation of the integrated sustainable mine management system.

The dependence of management decisions on information support is not a debatable issue for a long time. However, the changing quality of information creates both new challenges and new opportunities in the information and analytical field. The decision-making process, which would seem to be facilitated by digitalization, is actually becoming more complicated. As one of the main effects of digitalization, we note the apparent availability of information. In fact, simple facts that create an information network no longer become, moreover, they become smaller, or rather, their availability decreases. The necessary information sinks in the ocean of information noise. Echo chambers and filter bubbles exacerbate this problem. At the same time, the possibilities provided by the effects of echo cameras and information bubbles remain low.

The relevance of this work is determined by the further development of the management system and its information support that improve the economic entity’s activity and increase the competitiveness. The goal of this research is to develop a method for the most optimal commodities assortment formation, which makes it possible to increase the efficiency of the enterprise in the existing production conditions. Previously applied methods were oriented only to one of the methods of determining the commodities assortment, which prevented managers from choosing the most optimal option. The method of the optimal commodities assortment formation was proposed for the first time in this article while comparing the methods of its determination on products profitability and the limiting factor. The object of research is resource consumption in relation to certain commodities assortment manufactured by the enterprise operating in the measuring devices production sector. The article is focused on the methods of the integrated management cost analysis aimed at implementing the concept of the most complete and timely information support for the resource consumption control and regulation. General scientific and special research methods are used for the purpose of its implementation. The use of special methods of economic analysis made it possible to develop the economic model of costs estimation in the process of the most optimal commodities assortment formation.Conclusions and results of the research show that the efficiency of the industrial enterprise largely depends on rational resource consumption. The successful solution of this task largely depends on the correct commodities assortment formation. In view of this, methods for determining the commodities assortment based on the analysis of its profitability and assessing the impact of the limiting factor, taking into account the full load capacity, are proposed to be used.

AbstractThe main purpose of the article is to motivate experts and researchers in the field of business informatics and logistics to interdisciplinary integration in order to develop a new concept of an information system that will help to strengthen a company's competitive ability. The article analyzes the research carried out between top managers, strategic managers and managers of logistics in the largest Slovenian companies. Two hundred companies were included in the primary survey; 60 managers were selected in a representative sample and at the end 30 leaders in statistical analysis. We sent questionnaires to our managers via e-mail. The data were processed with the statistical program IBM SPSS Statistics 19, as a method we used linear regression and multiple correlation. With the primary survey, we measured satisfaction of the managers with existing information support for logistics and found that logistical, strategic information professionals need to be even more connected, so that management decisions can then be developed and sustained. On the basis of the obtained data, it can be concluded that sufficient investment of funds in the creation of an appropriate information system fosters the development of business logistics. The originality and value of the article are reflected in the interdisciplinary view of the concept of information support of logistics in the development of new products, in the original connections of various business functions, in the possibility of designing new information solutions and in the sustainable development of new services for the market.

The paper articulates the problem of modeling management decision-making process in new digital reality: decision-making under uncertainty, volatile environment, huge amount of data to be accounted, objective analytical risk attitude. The proposed solution includes critical selection of risk and uncertainty management tools aimed at improvement quality of management decision-making information support in the sustainable development context (on the example of construction projects). The aim of research is the development of the new “digital” approach to the process of reducing uncertainty when decision making in highly risk projects, including the process model and toolkit. Methodology is based on logical analysis and synthesis, decomposition, qualitative analysis of the relevant literature and primary data (top management informal interviews, targeted sample), comparative and regression analysis, time series analysis, mathematical statistics and simulation modelling based on nine sets of design estimation paperwork and turnover-balance sheets. The contribution into the existing knowledge includes substantiating the correlation of the terms of the digital decision-making and simulation modeling tools in high-risk projects management under insufficient statistical data and their mutual interaction. Also, advisability of formalization of the decision-making method based on unprocessed design estimates is justified, and appropriate methods for sustainable decision-making information support are selected. The approbation demonstrated practical significance and economic effectiveness of developed approach; experiment was carried out on the base of «RSU – 6» LLC’s projects (Tchaikovsky, Perm region).

The study of management modeling issues continues to be relevant for a number of reasons: the need to provide information certainty when making management decisions (risk management); visualization of management processes with the ability to compile and select optimal solutions; acceleration of the verification process of management algorithms. At the same time, active attention is paid, first of all, to technical, instrumental, and software aspects of modeling, automation and, ultimately, digitalization of management activities. Of course, such emphasis in research is justified due to the high level of technological complexity. However, the issues of description, formalization, and regulation of the modeled object deserve no less attention. Internal logic and the ability to formalize most products, processes, and systems are an objective prerequisite for creating their virtual model, which is not true of management activities. Thus, the aim of the research is to develop theoretical and practical aspects of management activities in the context of digital transformation. The key objectives of the study are: identification of typical stages of the control algorithm (e.g., the creation and launch of new product); and the formalization of the visualization model control processes by means of conditional algorithms; application and implementation of the tools of digitalization in an algorithmic chain. The following research methods are used: theoretical (analysis, modeling) and empirical (observation, evaluation of information sources). The main scientific result of the research are prototypes of digital duplicates of standard management processes. The field of application is the management of economic entities of various industry affiliations with the justification of information support for management decision – making in the conditions of digitalization.
