The paper explores the significance of the Chinese concept of harmony (he, xiehe) for establishing a stable and efficient global governance. The author assumes that to meet demands of the emerging global community this concept should be assessed in the context of two other important notions: “commonality” (yong) and “similarity” or “sharing” (tong). The merging of these concepts has been a real basis of the Chinese tradition and it can serve as a foundation of a new global order based on the principle of synergy.

The purpose of the publication is to indicate the need for a well thought-out combination of quantitative marketing research with qualitative research. The result of this research approach should be a fuller understanding of the research problem and the ability to interpret results more closely, while maintaining the reliability of the whole research process. In the theoretical part of the article, the essence of quantitative and qualitative research, with particular emphasis on the limitations and strengths of both research approaches, is presented. The increasing popularity of qualitative research does not absolve researchers from the prudent attitude towards the whole marketing research process − including the need to verify hypotheses or research questions. Excessive simplification in the approach to qualitative research can distort the essence of marketing research. In the empirical part of the article, the authors presented an example of combining quantitative marketing research with qualitative research − for this purpose, the results of their research will be used (scientific grant from National Science Centre). The CAPI technique (n = 1103) was used in the quantitative study, and observation diaries (n = 110) were used for qualitative research.

Although the subject of synergy has been explored for a long time, there are many indications that it is still gaining in importance, in the field of economics. The phenomenon of synergy seems particularly important in the field of M&A’s, alliances and the development of new organizational forms of enterprises. Synergy effects are most often evaluated from the operational and very rarely in the strategic, structural perspectives. The aim of the article is to identify and systematize the most important perspectives for synergy effect evaluation in the process of strategic analysis. The identified perspectives will be the starting point of the further research on criteria selection for synergy effects evaluation and will be one of the components of a more complex framework of the process of resource analysis. The research was conceptual, based on a literature review in the fields of methodology of strategic analysis, strategic management and Resource-Based View (RBV) approach. The identification of the structural conditions for synergy effect evaluation, requires focusing on: the subjective scope of the synergy effect analysis, key areas of strategy content and context, with the important role of strategic resources.

Companies are currently producing and processing larger and larger amounts of data that they were not able to effectively process and subsequently use in the management of company pro-cesses in the past. There are several technologies and tools for the analytical processing and evaluation of diverse data, such as the Big Data technology. The Industry 4.0 concept (which is closely linked with the IoT) will bring an enormous growth of produced data into the company sphere. The information value of such data can signifi cantly affect managing and decision-making processes in a company. Here, we can see a synergy between man and technology where each infl uences the other. The purpose of this paper is to support the following statement: in the present business environment, we are facing the transformation of a company that, for effi cient management and decision-making, needs: a) to capture and process all available data; b) to implement new tools into strategic decisions; and c) to integrate data through a single system. This article describes the possibilities of deploying the effi cient use of new technologies (Big Data, Industry 4.0, and IoT) in management.

The aim of this article is to provide a theoretical ground about teacher self-construction that is in harmony with his/her capabilities, natural environment, and society. The article initially considers the Blondelian philosophy of action as a specific philosophical view that forms an approach for teacher education: the primary concepts of action and synergy help consider the ontological dynamism of human life and its unavoidable conditions. In particular, the work on teacher prejudgements, considered as a system of conditions, is central in teacher education, as it represents a central and unavoidable condition. This reference to "conditions" is then articulated, in the specific case of teacher education, as the need to study the phenomenon of prejudgements, which can be considered the first step towards a greater awareness of educational and cultural skills. The third step of the article consists in "translating" these main issues of the philosophy of action into the idea of a performative process in the education of the teacher. According to philosophy of action, the article shows the performative character of teacher education processes, which is based on the pursuit of goals by activating all personal capacities.

The paper examines the ways in which business clusters contribute to an accelerated development of what are called problem regions. The author illustrates her theoretical analysis with examples of selected regions whose economic development has been accelerated by the establishment of production clusters. The adopted method of research includes an analysis of the selected aspects of economic theory and selected case studies of business clusters around the world. Specifically, the paper focuses on the American state of Arizona as a region with a developed market economy; the southern Indian state of Karnataka as a developing region; Scotland as a region excessively dependent on declining industry; and Slovenia as a region in the process of economic transformation. Business clusters are currently the most mature form of business organization that increases the probability of favorable economic effects in a problem region, the author says. Favorable economic effects generated by business clusters include economic cooperation and integration, external scale effects, internal synergy effects, as well as the multiplier and accelerator effects. All these effects improve the competitiveness of cluster members and consequently also of the host region, leading to accelerated economic development in the area.

The goal of the paper is to explicate the role of ensuring synergy in crisis management from the perspective of management theory and practice. It highlights the role of non-governmental organisations – such as Volunteer Fire Departments – within the crisis management system, and their impact on ensuring synergy effect in rescue operations undertaken by the National Firefighting and Rescue System. Based on the research findings obtained, an attempt was made to identify the negative factors that may limit the activity of the Volunteer Fire Department operations, which may translate into a reduction of the synergy effect in the functioning of the executive subsystem, and thus limit of the possibilities to provide assistance in emergency situation that threaten life, health, property and the natural environment.

The article analyzes the dissipative system of music education in the context of science synergy. The basic principles of synergetic music education, in general, coincide with the principle of self-actualization of humanistic pedagogy, when the synergetic approach to education and the person is understood as a holistic phenomenon, as a “return to oneself”.The attractors of synergy of music education are determined. The researcher examines the musical consciousness as a particular form of activity of the individual, society, culture and education. New educational concept of asymmetry of hemispheres of the human brain, where synergetics of education is the basis for the development of creative thinking is analyzed.It is proved that the development of music education, at the creative level,forms new horizons, creates new trends, influences understanding of scientific world through synergetic methodology, and promotes awareness of the personality changes. Pondering attractors of synergy of music education we singled out the theoretical modeling of the evolution of the world, the development of which is carried out by sequential changes creating its systems: society – culture – art – music, where culture is the attractor of society, art – of culture, and music is an attractor of art together with superattractor of evolutionary world. Interpenetration is reflected in the system of the comprehension of musical consciousness. Musical consciousness as a dissipative structure, synergetics is a special form of activity of the individual, society, culture, education. The research directed at the individual led to the analysis of the new educational concept of the asymmetry of the hemispheres of the human brain. We revealed the results of the hemispheres’ analysis, which leads to the unity of passive and active behavioral strategies, in a synergetic system of education which is the basis for the development of creative thinking. Hence the synergy does everything a flexible, open, multi-valued. Synergistic effect is a stimulating effect that comes from its own education, its own forces, and potencies.

The important aspect of effective teaching of sport games is the use of such forms of teaching that accurately reflect real environment of a player in natural conditions of this game. Therefore, a need appears for an accurate diagnosis of competition conditions in action sport game. The aim of the study was to observe offensive group actions (assessment of synergies) creating situations to score. Football players` performances were observed in 45 games including UEFA Champions League and Europe League. Their actions were observed in the following situations: certain, uncertain and risky. The following conclusions can be drawn from the obtained results: 1. A high level of synergy dominates when the highest purposes of attacking are involved. 2. A high level of synergy increases with the difficulty of situational tasks. 3. Because of multi-subjective nature of a team game, the training process of a player should also affect his mental sphere.

Purpose – Emerging customer needs are calling for companies to quickly create new solutions in business front-end e.g. in sales situation. However, bypassing predefined product development processes and thus product definition turns to be problematic and leads later problems in product management. The main objective is to study what kind of special issues is related on defining product data when rapidly productising products.Design/methodology/approach – This is a qualitative case study including three descriptive company cases. The study is conducted to show special characteristics that occur when rapidly defining products and their product data.Findings – The results indicate that the practices to carry out rapid productisation (RP) are very company specific. However, three common forms for RP can be recognised. It can be concluded that product data management needs in the productisation process are dependent on product structure and an original customer order point (COP) of the products. This study analyses the link between COP and the type of module added in rapid productisation and how it affects the product data handled.Practical implications – By focusing the relevant product data companies can hasten rapid productisation and ensure sufficient product management during order-delivery process.Originality; The concept of rapid productisation itself is quite novel although acute issue in practice. This research gives empirical insight about essential product data aspects when rapidly productising a new item.

Proces komunikowania się pomiędzy ludźmi ma decydujące znaczenie dla określenia wszystkich procesów wpływających na zachowanie społeczne. Komunikowanie jest potrzebą wynikającą ze współdziałania nie tylko osób tworzących organizację, ale także całego społeczeństwa. Rozwój nowych technologii, a także nowoczesnej organizacji pracy, wynika z powstawania zarówno nowych przedsiębiorstw, jak i spółek. A zatem wzrasta zapotrzebowanie na pracowników, których cechuje umiejętność dostosowania do zaistniałych wymagań na rynku. Jedną z podstawowych umiejętności niezbędnych do prawidłowego i skutecznego funkcjonowania wszystkich form organizacji jest komunikacja, która determinuje sukces człowieka zarówno w życiu społecznym, jak i zawodowym.

The subject of the article is a study of epistemological synergy in the realm of the semiotics of a linguistic sign as exemplified by selected aspects of semiotic dimension of the work of linguists, which tends to be foreshadowed by their more spectacular achievements in formal linguistics. The study inscribes in the canon of linguistic semiotics, developed for many years in the research of Zdzisław Wąsik (e.g. 1996, 2017). The paper contains two types of research avenues: on the one hand, the study of some aspects of the work of linguists who are less popular among Polish-language academia (for example, Yishai Tobin, Julia Kristeva) and on the other, thoughts of well-known scholars, but considered here from an unusual perspective of their less cited works (Ferdinand de Saussure (1878-79) or Roman Jakobson (1973). Epistemological synergy, the analytical rotor for the presented discussion is understood as the way in which research conducted in one field can foster the development of related paradigms.

Badanie wpisuje się w kanon semiotyki językoznawczej, rozwijany od wielu lat w pracach Zdzisława Wąsika (np. 1996, 2017). Do bazy analitycznej wybrałam omówienia dwojakiego rodzaju: zarówno przykłady dzieł językoznawców mniej popularnych wśród polskojęzycznej akademii (na przykład Yishai Tobin, Julia Kristeva), jak i przykłady myśli naukowców bardzo znanych, ale rozważanych z nietypowej perspektywy ich mniej cytowanych dzieł (Ferdynand de Saussure (1878-79), Charles Morris czy Roman Jakobson (1973). Główną tezę artykułu ‒ synergię epistemologiczną ‒ rozumiem jako uwypuklenie sposobu, w jaki badania prowadzone w jednej dziedzinie wspierały rozwój pokrewnych paradygmatów.
