Purpose: The main aim of the article is to determine the influence of the assessment of validity and actual state of individual resources and competences in the sphere of general resources on competitive potential. Additional aim is a comparison of these resources/competences taking into account housing cooperatives from Świętokrzyskie and Małopolskie voivodeships. Design/methodology/approach: The research was conducted among cooperatives’ executives who were asked to assess the validity and state of resources and competences in the sphere of general resources. All housing cooperatives from the Świętokrzyskie and Małopolskie voivodeships were asked to take part in the research, however, because of the tendency of the representatives of cooperatives to participate in the research, the research had been conducted on a sample of 27 housing cooperatives of which 7.6% from Świętokrzyskie Voivodeship and 21% from Małopolskie voivodeship, using an interview questionnaire. Findings: Analysis of conducted research show that there is a positive correlation between the assessment of the importance of resources in the sphere of general resources and the competitive potential of the enterprise. The findings also show that the state of resources is not a moderator (a factor that determines whether or not there is a relationship) of the relationship between the importance of resources and the competitive potential. Moreover, voivodeship of the enterprise does not differentiate its competitive potential and the state of its resources in comparison to its competitors. Practical implications: The study shows that it is very important for managers to know all general resources and competences due to the fact that the understanding of the validity of general resources and competences allows to create the competitive potential. At the same time the knowledge of the state of general resources and competences in comparison to the competition allows the company to do everything to keep up with the competition and then outrun it. It shows what resources/competences are better than competitor’s and what need to be improved. Originality/value: The article theoretically describes general resources/competences of the company and empirically analyses the importance of having the knowledge of possessed resources/competences and its influence on competitive potential. The value of the research is that it confirms what appears to be obvious but in fact is not taken into account by most enterprises.

Purpose: The paper aims to identify major components of the competitive potential of enterprises operating at the initial stage of the economic crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The research hypothesis H1 is advanced: the scope of business objects affects the selection of enterprise competitive potential components. The concept and nature of competitiveness are discussed and the subject matter of enterprise competitive potential is detailed. Design/methodology/approach: The theoretical section follows a thorough review of leading specialist literature. The empirical part, on the other hand, uses the exploratory factor analysis, which detects an optimum group of main factors and explains correlations among observable variables, serves to verify the hypothesis. The number of factors is determined by means of the Cattell scree and Kaiser criteria. Findings: The paper contains the results of research into 253 large enterprises in the Polish economy. Exploratory factor analysis is employed to define the statistically significant components of competitive potential of enterprises active in the initial phase of the economic crisis and the effect of business objectives is explored on the selection of the components of enterprise competitive potential. It is shown that, regardless of business objects, three factors, namely, innovative machinery and equipment, the financial condition of an enterprise, and human capital, are the key components of enterprise competitive potential. Practical implications: The results can be utilised by entrepreneurs as a guide to the selection of the components of enterprise competitive potential at the times of crises. Originality/value: The paper presents the results of original research into a representative group of large enterprises which can be generalised to the entire population assuming a confidence level of α = 95% and maximum error of β = 6%.

Istnieje powszechne przekonanie, że innowacyjność i wszelkie działania na rzecz jej rozwoju mocują pozycję konkurencyjną przedsiębiorstwa. Przyjmuje się zatem, że proinnowacyjne aktywności są ważne, wartościowe - bez względu na obszar działania podmiotu, jaki działalność ta obejmuje. Problematyka innowacyjności wyrasta z prorozwojowych potrzeb przedsiębiorstwa, kreowanych - z zasady, na tle poszukiwania nowości w obszarze dostarczanej na rynek oferty. Z drugiej strony potrzeba ta wiąże się z poszukiwaniem rozwiązań na rzecz prowadzenia działalności - nowoczesnych, wyróżniających formuł zarządczych, dających pole generowania nowych - szeroko rozumianych wartości. Działalność innowacyjna stymulowana być może indywidualnie przez przedsiębiorstwo. Może być też prowadzona w ramach szeroko pojętej współpracy świata nauki z biznesem, transformującej naukowe założenia na biznesowe pomysły. Artykuł dotyczy problematyki innowacyjności przedsiębiorstw. Jego celem jest analiza aktywności nowatorskich realizowanych na poziomie przedsiębiorstwa, napędzanych jego szeroko ujmowanym kapitałem i wpływ tychże na pozycję konkurencyjną podmiotu. Podjęty temat badawczy został zrealizowany w oparciu o krytyczną analizę dostępnej literatury przedmiotu, wraz z wnioskowaniem.

The company's capital understood as an intellectual resource (knowledge and skills), most strongly shapes its competitive position. Capital understood in this way increasingly determines the company's market successes. The above is particularly important in the discussion of competitiveness through innovation. Innovation of enterprises is a response to diagnosed social demand; it's market enrichment. Competition through innovation is therefore an added value for both the economic entity and the environment. It is the determinant of the progress of civilization.

Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie modelu konkurencyjności przedsiębiorstw, który umożliwia badanie związków przyczynowo-skutkowych w obrębie tego pojęcia. Prezentowany model zakłada, że pozycja konkurencyjna, rozumiana jako wynik konkurowania, jest determinowana przez potencjał konkurencyjności, czyli system procesów i zasobów przedsiębiorstwa. W artykule omówione zostały oba elementy modelu oraz możliwości ich operacjonalizacji. Ponadto przedstawione zostały ograniczenia i możliwości zastosowania modelu.
