Abstract Strategic leadership is the most important action undertaken during a war and is therefore the main target of the opponent. Hybrid warfare is the war of the present and the future, and within it, the action against leadership is carried out according to new rules and has absolute priority. The working hypotheses validated in this article demonstrate that the influence of leadership begins with the process of forming command cadres and continues with the action of cyber attack on the technical management systemsl.

Two Sides

Management strategy and strategic leadership are like two sides of a coin that can not be separated, the management strategy is the tool in making a strategic plan for the future, while on the other hand, leadership (leadership) is more emphasis on people who have in the organization (leader and follower behavior) that will run (implementation) the formulated plan so that the goals (objectives) of the company could be reached. In a moving-forward environment, a leader is charged to be always monitoring and watching all changes. Any kind of changes will affect objective approach. A leader will not only be charged to see future, create a road map from the organization, but also has behave in manner to support the goal.

Traditional Understanding

AbstractThis article first traces the origin of hybrid warfare and the label game surrounding the concept, asking whether it is merely old wine in a new bottle, and if so, whether it is still a useful concept. It is found that while being old wine in new bottles, it is still a good wine well worth drinking. While there is not much new in the concept itself, it is a useful tool to think about past wars, today’s wars and the wars of the future. Thereafter, this paper analyses how hybrid warfare and hybrid threats are to be understood in the context of peace, conflict and war. It is shown how hybrid warfare and threats fit into our traditional understanding of conflict dynamics.

The Impact

Although actions promoting sustainable energy production and consumption have been widely approached in the literature, the management of the big scientific projects devoted to these actions have not been considered as a matter of study from the perspective of sustainable development, but almost exclusively from the scientific or technical ones. Experiences all over the world are increasingly demonstrating that the impact of the project phase is more critical than expected. In this sense, the joint international research on clean and more efficient nuclear power, especially fusion, is currently focused on two large projects: ITER and IFMIF-DONES. Although ITER is step by step advancing, IFMIF-DONES still has a long way before it is actually implemented and its main target (the evaluation of the materials to build the future nuclear fusion reactors) is achieved. In this work, the different steps focused on IFMIF-DONES funding and management planning up to date are analysed and, departing from them, some key points on the future development of the project are proposed.

And Performance

This article stems from a case study based on a series of in-depth interviews carried out on the All Russia Association of the Blind (VOS). It traces how two of the most successful VOS enterprises, Enterprise 13 in Moscow and Revda in the Urals, responded to the dynamic changes (both economic and social) that confronted them after the introduction of the free market economy. It examines the strategies, developed and emergent, created since 1991 by these two enterprises. In particular it traces the emergence of the entrepreneurial manager and his adaptation to the catalyst of change - growth, through the development of creative and proactive solutions to these environmental changes. In essence the contention is that in a period of flux where turbulence is high and change inevitable strategic leadership, driven by an entrepreneurial spirit, comes to the fore as a natural consequence of market forces. Risk taking and high tolerance of ambiguity mark the innovative leader.For hundreds of years the Russians had lived under centralising, autocratic regimes. In April 1985 Gorbachevs Perestroika changed this. Perestroika introduced the seeds of a democratic political system and the beginnings of a market economy which was to supplant the failing Marxist model.Inevitably, the outcome was a situation of unparalleled complexity. Perestroika broke the Russian business mould. It created uncertainty by introducing ambiguity in the form of competition. The environment became increasingly unstable and the future uncertain. Enterprise directors had to take a step into the unknown. It was a period which started in 1991 with great expectations and aspirations but by 1997 had, through the erosion of the economic base, progressed to fear and trepidation as earlier dreams were unfulfilled. Finally, after the currency collapse of 1998, came the unexpected windfalls of import substitution and enhanced exchange rate benefits which led to the re-emergence of hope in the future as the expected economic deterioration failed to materialise.By 1998 the relationship between strategy, structure and performance was rewritten to capitalise on the emerging opportunities. But this entailed a deliberate destruction of the old business methodologies and relationships, the bending of rules, and the creation of a new culture based on risk. In essence it meant the emergence of a new set of core competences driven by a strategic leadership geared to handling ambiguity and oriented towards risk taking. A breed not readily found in Russia or the VOS enterprises.

Koncept hibridnega vojskovanja se danes pojavlja kot izziv uveljavljenim zahodnim klasifikacijam in načinom vojskovanja. Obsega metode in sredstva, ki bodo v prihodnosti verjetno del večine konfliktov. Kljub široki rabi tega termina pa hibridno vojskovanje še ni ustrezno opredeljeno. Obstajajo tudi nasprotujoča mnenja o relevantnosti in koristi tega koncepta. Vprispevku so na kratko prikazane težave opredeljevanja koncepta hibridnega vojskovanja, opisani so tudi nekateri primeri konfliktov, pri katerih je tovrstno vojskovanje zelo izrazito. Povzete so temeljne splošne lastnosti hibridnega vojskovanja, v zadnjem poglavju pa so prikazane glavne težave in možnosti zoperstavljanja nasprotniku, ki uporablja takšne oblike vojskovanja. Nowadays, the concept of hybrid warfare presents a substantial challenge to recognised western classifications and forms of warfare. It comprises methods and means which will in the future probably be used in the majority of conflicts. Despite a broad use of the term, hybrid warfare is not yet appropriately conceptualised. In addition, there are different views about the relevance and benefit of the hybrid warfare concept. The article provides a short overview of problems connected with defining the concept of hybrid warfare and describes some conflicts in which such mode of warfare is typically used. It also summarizes general characteristics of hybrid warfare. The last chapter of the article deals with the basic problems and possibilities of countering an adversary using such forms of warfare.

The subject of this research is the indirect forms of confrontation in intergovernmental conflicts conflicts. The object of this research is the “hybrid warfare” as a form of indirect confrontation. It is established that currently the methods of military and nonmilitary intergovernmental confrontation are being extensively used. One of the actively implemented concepts is the so called “hybrid war”. The author examines the key components of “hybrid” actions; and leaning on the analysis of historical experience, concludes that these approaches have deep historical roots. The article reviews not the classical mercenarism, but namely “hybrid” actions, when the hirer and the purpose of involving mercenaries are hidden, while military actions are accompanied by economic confrontation and massive information attacks. The examples of such actions can be seen in wars back in the XV–XVII centuries. The analysis of warfare and armed conflicts experience allows concluding the threat of “hybrid” actions is extremely relevant now and in the foreseeable future. It is also worth noting that in the future, other “hybrid” approaches towards intergovernmental confrontation that have previously been used in the past can be modified to the new conditions of civilizational development.  The author concludes that Russia should be ready to counter such threats, and outlines possible aspects of such counteraction.

The research aim was to explore whether the dominant style of board model used in Australia was reaching its use-by-date and if so, what more future-ready model/s or features could be considered. This paper represents original thinking and research to generate a new set of “working hypotheses”. We have followed a “grounded research” (an inductive methodology) to produce an emergent theory. We have used semi-structured and qualitative interviewing techniques. The research has generated an initial “theory” and point of view that is directional (not empirical). The focus of the study was on board operating models of the future — taking a much longer-term perspective, more specifically to identify and postulate what “fit-for-purpose” board operating models could look like in 2030 and beyond. By examining possible solutions through an operating model lens, the study has taken a system’s view of boards, going well beyond the constraints of current siloed, domain-specific research. The findings clearly point to a model that for larger and/or more complicated enterprises is under considerable strain. It is fast approaching its use-by-date, especially in the light of 1) a shift toward stakeholder capitalism and 2) the need to operate effectively in faster-moving, less predictable, and significantly more complicated environments than the existing board models were designed for. Having set the context for future governance, the recommendations focus on six elements of board operating models, board structures, key governance processes, management systems, and frameworks, e.g., board charters, technology/systems, participants and skills, and ways of working. The relevance of the paper is that at a time when directors are doubling down on what needs to be done, there is a general absence of consideration of 1) what “fit-for-purpose” governance should be and 2) whether the governance system as we know it in Australia is approaching a breaking point for some major enterprises (not all companies).
