Globalization actuates social change with the result that in contemporary organizations, alongside classical methods of creating pro-social efficiency - i.e. management, direction and instruction - an increasingly significant role is being played by methods based on partnership relations and recognised competence, for instance counciling, consulting, mentoring and coaching. In this article the process of coaching is presented as an instrument of transforming influences, relations and structures present in task-orientated teams, as pro-social attributes of the team's actions - i.e. synergistic effects. Among the pro-social mechanisms that regulate the functioning of task -oriented teams, specific influences, relations and structures may be identified as potentially exercising either a positive or a negative influence on the efficiency of the team as a whole. The process of coaching makes use of actions that result in the transformation of influences and relations into effects; in other words, states and events favourably evaluated with respect to efficiency. Within a longer timeframe the process of coaching results in the structuralization of influences and relations, consequently increasing the significance of synergy for the efficiency of teams. This results in the arisal, within the context of the team, of a relatively stable social or organizational microstructure, constituting new quality in an ontological sense. Subjects making up the team lose their subjectivity as part of this microstructure.

The issue of centre-periphery relationships has increased in importance in the context of the globalised world and enlarged European Union. While Western researchers seem to be more focused on previously marginal areas, Eastern art historians still see much work to be done exploring the connections between local phenomena and more dominant cultural centres. In fact the largely secondary nature of local material opens up a wide spectrum of influences and analogies waiting for elucidation. There are not many works on connections in particular, but a focus on the context and possible patterns of influence has become an indispensable part of the most recent publications in Latvian art history. Studies of Latvian art-theoretical heritage indicate that German sources have been the most influential in shaping Latvian authors' opinions on what is art and how its development could be conceived. Max Liebermann, Richard Muther, Julius Meier-Graefe, Wilhelm Worringer and other writers on art should be mentioned in this respect. French influences that started to spread with Hippolyte Taine's ideas were important but more indirect, episodic and sweeping, mostly seeking alternative models to the local heritage of German and Russian traditions. So French Cubist and Purist idioms were particularly attractive for local modernists but Henri Begson's stance was especially widespread in the field of aesthetics and philosophy. Apart from the Russian avant-garde ideas introduced by Voldemars Matvejs, Russian art-theoretical sources had a limited impact, more related to particular authors' interests. In general, Latvian writers on art have been inconsistent and rather skeptical towards the radical avant-garde. The argument of national art as being at a relatively early stage of development encouraged the ancient tradition of thinking on art as a recreated and perfected imitation of nature.
