Aim: The article aims to answer the following questions regarding the challenges of the modern world, support for inter-organizational relationships, and the use of initiatives in the field of science and business conducive to increasing competitiveness. It attempts to determine how to develop and manage contemporary initiatives regarding cooperation between the worlds of science, culture, art and business while maintaining the principles of ethics and culture, and how to help build support for business, science and culture. The aim of the article is also to demonstrate how the region’s managers can prevent the escalation of war-related issues and what actions to take to prevent local societies from generating problems. Finally, the article tries to indicate how to build lasting inter-organizational relationships, how science, culture and art can contribute to solving local problems, and how informal clusters can support regional management through inter-organizational cooperation. Design/methodology/approach: The article uses the methods of literature research and a case study in the Świętokrzyskie region. Findings: The article presents an example of an inter-organizational cooperation initiative promoting the worlds of business, science, culture, art and local governments in the Świętokrzyskie region in the study of selected cases. The issue of building competitive advantages of the region through the development of inter-organizational relationships between the worlds of science, business, culture and art is also addressed. Practical implications: Region managers can implement inter-organizational cooperation, which brings the most benefits, by including cooperation with scientific, cultural, art, sports and business institutions. The article characterizes initiatives of inter-organizational cooperation between business, science, culture and art. Inter-organizational cooperation initiatives can be used as sources of new competitive advantages for the region and building effective management strategies. Modern management of the region’s competitiveness is the development of a mentality based on the principles of learning to use the regionally demonstrated freedom and ethics of business behaviour that implements inter-organizational cooperation, which is characterized in the case study. The inter-organizational cooperation initiatives analysed in this article in the Świętokrzyskie region have a synergistic effect and benefits in a number of other regions of Poland; therefore, they are an effective tool for managing the region in the aspect of building inter-organizational relationships. Social implications: Effective management of the region involves creating a society that is willing to undertake conflict-free changes, implements innovations, is open to discussion and dialogue, and introduces conflict-free change implementation. Recent years have shown that high intellectual capital and the implementation of new technologies and innovations can become a competitive advantage, provided that society is a conscious, sensitive and ethical recipient of the proposed competitive strategies of enterprises. The analysis of the problems of the war between Ukraine and Russia demonstrates that the managers of the region should make every effort in order to encourage the society to develop an attitude of sensitivity to harm, entrepreneurship based on the principles of ethical competition, the use of democratic freedom in a reasonable manner, as well as the use of property for purposes related to the development of emotional sensitivity to manifestations of intolerance and replacing conflicts with cooperation. In the long run, the effects of such management will benefit every participant of the market, because everyone is a resident of a region and has similar needs (security, development, improvement), and inter-organizational cooperation can achieve this through a region management strategy. Originality/value: The article characterizes modern regional management, which, owing to inter-organizational cooperation between business, science, culture, art and local government, will support the peaceful resolution of regional problems and conflicts (war, famine, poverty) through the development of behaviour aimed at building inter-organizational relationships. Modern competition rules are intended to foster the creation of multi-level inter-organizational relationships, the benefits (synergistic effects) of which are described in the article on the basis of the analysis and evaluation of inter-organizational cooperation implemented in the Świętokrzyskie region.

Purpose: In this paper, the authors analyze the importance of knowledge in modern socioeconomic relations. The main objective of this paper is to show the prospects for development of knowledge-based inter-organizational cooperation between universities and companies in the chemical sector. Design/methodology/approach: The authors recognized that it is reasonable to adopt the research strategy of methodological pluralism. Therefore, the study used an integrated research approach, which included both direct interpretive and positivist research procedures. This required qualitative and quantitative research. Literature studies include Polish and foreign publications. Findings: As a conclusion for the results of the study, it should be stated that the value derived from knowledge positively influences the establishment and subsequent strengthening of the ties between universities and companies. This knowledge (in particular, solutions in the area of digital technologies that focus on monitoring and automation of processes, data integration, and big data analytics, as well as data protection and cybersecurity) can be applied in the process of formation of long-term relationships between universities and companies. In addition, as demonstrated in the article, inter-organizational cooperation between a university and a chemical company requires ensuring symmetry in the partners’ structures and management methods, as well as overcoming differences in their organizational cultures. Other conditions that should be taken into account in order to successfully shape long-term relationships are organizational proximity, cognitive proximity, institutional proximity, and social proximity. Originality/value: The added value of the article is to show the prospects for the development of inter-organizational cooperation and to determine the importance of the impact of knowledge on the cooperation of universities and chemical enterprises.

The paper discusses the impact of inter-organizational cooperation on the development of a region’s Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH). Based on the results of quantitative and qualitative research conducted in 2023, the authors characterized interorganizational cooperation in the process of creating services based on the Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH), as well as identified the stages of the creation of such services and the added value that results from the use of a participatory approach in this process. The authors also identified those elements of ICH management that involve the cooperation of partners. The paper helps to understand the role of inter-organizational cooperation in designing ICH-based services, while also showing how ICH can be managed based on services designed as part of inter-organizational cooperation. The study presents the features of inter-organizational cooperation in the process of designing an ICH-based service is distinguished. It has been proven that the inter-organizational cooperation in designing an ICH-based service highlights the innovation aspect of this activity and it has a positive impact on ICH development.

Purpose: The purpose of this article is to attempt to demonstrate the role of Integral Theory in explaining the upcoming managerial processes in Society 5.0. Design/methodology/approach: The explanatory procedure includes both a deterministic and indeterministic approach. The authors of this paper analyze currently conducted empirical research on the functioning of organizational structures in Poland and abroad in production, services and public organizations, including the so-called third sector. Findings: Research clearly indicates the slow, but systematic evolution of the organizational structures and the principles of their functioning. The so-called self-managing employee teams are increasingly being formed. Research limitations/implications: Research seems to purposefully monitor the functioning of the organizations systems. Practical implications: By constructing and anticipating social and economic processes we have attempted to identify managerial tools that are helpful in improving managerial activities to meet the requirement of the organization due to changing external conditions. Social implications: Such a test is the concept of a teal organization as a new type of organization, appropriate for the emerging age of Society 5.0. Originality/value: The research results indicate relatively fast changes in the functioning of enterprises in the field of inter-organizational cooperation.

The research problem of the paper concerns multiple catalysts for the development of cross-border cooperation in Euroregions, and in particular their impact on public institutions and NGOs. The aim of the paper is to determine whether in a specific Euroregion environment, cooperating public institutions and non-governmental organizations are affected by similar or different catalysts for the development of cross-border cooperation. Based on the literature review as well as desk research analyze, the theoretical part of the paper presents three key sets of catalysts for the development of cross-border cooperation, related to: the adopted model of cooperation; cooperating organizations; implemented cross-border activities. In order to solve the paper’s research problem the qualitative research were conducted. The co-authors analysed the results of focus group interviews and a survey conducted on a group of 100 Polish and Czech respondents developing cross-border cooperation in the Polish and Czech part of the Beskidy Euroregion were used. The sets of catalysts: “the model of cooperation”, “the resources and potential of partners” refer in a universal way to the processes of development of cross-border cooperation, while the third set - joint activities of partners is strongly correlated with Euroregional determinants. The analysis confirms that for non-governmental organizations the strong catalysts for the development of cross-border cooperation are the resources and potentials of the cooperating organizations and joint activities of the partners, while the set including the cooperation model is not important. On the other hand, in the case of public institutions, the cooperation model and the resources and potentials of cooperating organizations can be considered weak catalysts, while the set including joint activities of partners is not important.

Problem badawczy niniejszego artykułu dotyczy wielu katalizatorów rozwoju współpracy transgranicznej w euroregionach, a w szczególności ich wpływu na instytucje publiczne i organizacje pozarządowe. Celem artykułu jest ustalenie, czy w specyficznym środowisku euroregionów na współpracujące instytucje publiczne i organizacje pozarządowe mają wpływ podobne lub różne katalizatory rozwoju współpracy transgranicznej. Na podstawie przeglądu literatury, a także analizy badań źródeł zastanych, teoretyczna część artykułu przedstawia trzy kluczowe zestawy katalizatorów rozwoju współpracy transgranicznej, związane z: przyjętym modelem współpracy, organizacjami współpracującymi oraz realizowanymi działaniami transgranicznymi. W celu rozwiązania problemu badawczego przeprowadzono badania jakościowe. Autorzy przeanalizowali wyniki wywiadów grupowych i wykorzystali ankietę przeprowadzoną na grupie 100 polskich i czeskich respondentów rozwijających współpracę transgraniczną w polskiej i czeskiej części Euroregionu Beskidy. Zestawy katalizatorów: "model współpracy", "zasoby i potencjał partnerów" odnoszą się w sposób uniwersalny do procesów rozwoju współpracy transgranicznej, podczas gdy trzeci zestaw - wspólne działania partnerów, są silnie skorelowane z determinantami euroregionalnymi. Analiza potwierdza, że dla organizacji pozarządowych silnymi katalizatorami rozwoju współpracy transgranicznej są zasoby i potencjał współpracujących organizacji oraz wspólne działania partnerów, a zestaw obejmujący model współpracy nie jest istotny. Z drugiej strony, w przypadku instytucji publicznych, model współpracy oraz zasoby i potencjał współpracujących organizacji można uznać za słabe katalizatory, natomiast zestaw obejmujący wspólne działania partnerów nie jest istotny.

The issue concerns the barriers limiting the process of cross-border cooperation (CBC) in Euroregions. There are two identified kinds of barriers coming out from the cross-border environment and the specific CBC circumstances in Euroregions. These barriers are identified and analysed with reference to the strategic goals of Cieszyn Silesia Euroregion, located on the Polish-Czech border. The goal of this paper is to point out the possible ways to limit the key barriers hindering the achievement of Euroregion goals, thanks to the commitment of the three key CBC stakeholders. The results of the research are analysed in comparison with other research concerning EUROACE Euroregion, located between the Portuguese and Spanish territories. Research shows that in both Euroregions similar ‘external’ barriers to the development of cross-border cooperation are identified, which are characteristics of peripheral regions, distant from national and regional decision centres. At the same time, the study identified ‘internal’ barriers to the development of cross-border cooperation, which most strongly affect the social objectives of cooperation and can be reduced at the local level by a skilful policy of local governments that should create the development of Euroregions and mobilize non-governmental organizations and entrepreneurs for cooperation.

Kwestia dotyczy barier ograniczających proces współpracy transgranicznej (CBC) w euroregionach. Istnieją dwa zidentyfikowane rodzaje barier wychodzących ze środowiska transgranicznego oraz szczególne okoliczności związane z CBC w euroregionach. Bariery te są identyfikowane i analizowane w odniesieniu do celów strategicznych Euroregionu Śląsk Cieszyński, położonego na granicy polsko-czeskiej. Celem tego artykułu jest wskazanie możliwych sposobów ograniczenia kluczowych barier utrudniających osiągnięcie celów euroregionu, dzięki zaangażowaniu trzech kluczowych interesariuszy CBC. Wyniki badań są analizowane w porównaniu z innymi badaniami dotyczącymi Euroregionu EUROACE, zlokalizowanego między regionami portugalskimi i hiszpańskimi. Badania pokazują, że w obu euroregionach zidentyfikowano podobne "zewnętrzne" bariery rozwoju współpracy transgranicznej, które są cechami regionów peryferyjnych, odległych od krajowych i regionalnych ośrodków decyzyjnych. Jednocześnie w badaniu zidentyfikowano "wewnętrzne" bariery rozwoju współpracy transgranicznej, które najsilniej wpływają na społeczne cele współpracy i mogą zostać zredukowane na poziomie lokalnym dzięki umiejętnej polityce samorządów lokalnych, które powinny przyczynić się do rozwoju Euroregionów i zmobilizować organizacje pozarządowe i przedsiębiorców do współpracy.
