Purpose: The objective of the argument in this paper is to attempt at answering the question whether learning and knowledge exchange are the key factors determining online work preferences for Generation Z employees. Design/methodology/approach: The essence of knowledge management is that all knowledge, both explicit and tacit, accumulated by an organization becomes easily accessible to each of its members. This is important for decision-making processes and allows the organization to become more agile. Knowledge management is most often associated with modern information technologies. Thanks to them, streams of various data can be processed and analyzed in many different ways. However, in the literature there is an increasingly common attitude that more attention should be paid not only to the technological but also to the human aspect of knowledge management. The processes of knowledge exchange among employees have been subject to extensive research and studies, yet the recent years have added another thread to the discussion about the matter, i.e. a significant proportion of employees switching to the online work model. Based on the findings of the studies conducted on a group of employees representing Generation Z, the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) technique was applied to organize the factors with the highest relevance for the respondents in online work. Findings: PCA demonstrated that the components recognized as most important were those relating to knowledge transfer and their impact on employee efficiency, and on the other hand employee relations as a factor that supports the learning processes. Research limitations/implications: In order to dwell upon the underlying causes of this situation, it should be recommended to proceed with further in-depth qualitative research. Practical implications: What the research communicates to the organization is that although Generation Z members are aware of the significance of the knowledge transfer and learning processes and they understand the role of peer relations in these processes, they are unable to overcome the social barriers created by the online working system due to lack of appropriate skills. Originality/value: The paper reveals new aspects that play crucial role in shaping Generation Z attitude to online work from one side. On the other hand it also helps to design synthetic tool researching this area in the future.

Purpose: The main objective of this article is to identify the possibilities of using quality management systems to undertake innovation activities in an organisation representing the chemical industry. Design/methodology/approach: A literature review was carried out to find out the state of the research on the subject. It was conducted according to the research methodology proposed by J.W. Creswell (2013). Ten employees from one of the key departments of an organisation belonging to the chemical industry were interviewed. Findings: The interviewees are of the opinion that their organisation’s quality management system is a useful tool. However, if the system is to support innovation activities, employees should be trained more extensively, they should be provided with information on the potential benefits of quality improvement and innovations, competitions for best organisational solutions should be organised and the quality management system itself should be improved so that it is less documentation-intensive. Research limitations/implications: A literature review is not a perfect way to obtain information. Previous research has been conducted in different organisations and in different cultures. Secondly, it is important to remember the limitations inherent in qualitative research. Practical implications: Based on the results of the research, those responsible for the functioning of management systems can take appropriate measures aimed at increasing the scope of innovation activities of employees. Originality/value: Quality management systems conducive to innovation activities in the chemical industry are not a frequent research topic.

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 article - based on the research - emphasizes the importance of employees in a modern organization that functions in an extremely volatile and at the same time demanding environment. Variability, combined with the processes of internationalization of a number of phenomena and requirements resulting from the Industrial Revolution 4.0, directly forces the need for continuous improvement of competences by the company’s staff. On the other hand, managers should rationally use their intellectual potential in order to strengthen their position on the market and dominate the competition. It is essential to take actions aimed at encouraging employees to invest in themselves. Then there will be a mutual benefit: for a specific person and company for which he works. Creating a climate for acquiring knowledge will make an organization a learning and successful business organization. In such a company, intellectual capital management will become a process where any employee will be treated subjectively, and will be a co-creator of the success of his/her organization.

Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie w oparciu o dorobek teorii zarządzania i ekonomii zasobów oraz procesów, które mogą wpływać na wdrażanie nowoczesnych rozwiązań w miejskich inwestycjach i systemie transportu dla mieszkańców miasta. Skuteczność i szybkość zmian w komunikacji miejskiej zależna jest od zasobów wiedzy, jaką posiadają władze miasta, samorząd i organizator, dostępności zasobów finansowych na wydatki związane z rozwojem nowoczesnego transportu, zasobów w infrastrukturze transportu i taboru oraz stosowanej technologii IT. Potencjał tych zasobów oraz procesy, jakie zachodzą w systemie decyzyjnym i przepływach finansowych wyznaczają zdolność samorządu miejskiego do zrealizowania zadań, jakie należy wdrożyć, aby „lepszy transport wpływał na lepsze miasto”. Innowacyjne podejście i elastyczność procesu zarządzania przez organizatora zależy od formy organizacyjno-prawnej. W artykule przedstawiono trzy formy organizacyjno-prawne, jakie występują w polskiej praktyce. Omówiono ich cechy i zakres swobody w korzystaniu z zasobów, którymi dysponują, aby zwrócić uwagę polityków i władz lokalnych na konieczność poprawy formy organizacyjno-prawnej organizatora przed podjęciem planowanych zmian systemowych w transporcie miejskim. Zwrócono uwagę na znaczenie odpowiedniego kapitału intelektualnego, którego rdzeniem jest wiedza. W podsumowaniu postawiono tezę, że w krajowym transporcie publicznym jednym z ważnych postulatów, które stoją przed osobami kierującymi administracją miejską jest potrzeba kształcenia na studiach podyplomowych oferujących najnowszą wiedzę z zakresu projektowania i wdrażania innowacji w transporcie miejskim.

EN

The aim of this article is to present, based on management and economic theory, the resources and processes that can influence the implementation of modern solutions in urban investments and the transport system for city residents. The effectiveness and speed of change in urban transport depends on the knowledge resources of the city authorities, the local government and the organiser, the availability of financial resources for spending on the development of modern transport, the resources in transport infrastructure and rolling stock and the IT technology used. The potential of these resources and the processes that take place in the decision-making system and financial flows determine the ability of the city government to achieve the tasks that need to be implemented in order for “better transport to influence a better city”. The innovative approach and flexibility of the organiser’s management process depends on the organisational and legal form. The article presents three organisational-legal forms that occur in Polish reality. Their characteristics and the scope of their freedom to use the resources at their disposal are discussed in order to draw the attention of politicians and local authorities to the need to improve the organiser’s organisational- legal form before undertaking planned system changes in urban transport. Attention was drawn to the importance of adequate intellectual capital – intangible resources, the core of which is knowledge. It concludes with the thesis that, in national public transport, one of the important demands facing those in charge of urban administration is the need for postgraduate education offering the latest knowledge in the design and implementation of urban transport innovations.

Accessibility is a fundamental point to enjoy cultural heritage. An operative aspect which with different theoretical methodologies and practical projects can reach critical-conservative solutions. A first step may be to conserve the different stratification, all historic periods, and the impact in the surroundings for single preexistences and archeological sites. For archeological sites, it is necessary not to forget historical solutions which contributed to inspire the Venice Charter. A second step is an urban dimension for the accessibility in the historic centres and the pedestrian itineraries. To summarize the values Riegl, as we know, divided them in two main groups: the memorial values as age value, historical value and intended memorial value; and the present day values as use value, art value, newness value and relative art value. And when there is a conflict between use value and historical value, the treatment of a monument should, above all, take into account the age value. This will be a principal for the guidelines in the problem of accessibility. Many of these problems can be resolve with an appropriate design. This reintegration of the image even for the urban restoration than for the conservation of environment. In this paper, we want to present different ways of making the cultural heritage accessible to everyone, not only the obvious priorities of physical accessibility, but also accessibility in the form of understanding and experiencing.

PL

Dostępność jest podstawowym warunkiem korzystania z dziedzictwa kulturowego. Jest to aspekt operacyjny, który przy różnych metodologiach teoretycznych i praktycznych projektach może osiągnąć rozwiązania krytyczno-konserwatywne. Pierwszym krokiem może być zachowanie różnych stref, wszystkich okresów historycznych i wpływu na otoczenie dla pojedynczych preegzystencji i stanowisk archeologicznych. W przypadku stanowisk archeologicznych nie można zapomnieć o historycznych rozwiązaniach, które przyczyniły się do powstania Karty Weneckiej. Drugim krokiem jest miejski wymiar dostępności w historycznych centrach i pieszych trasach. Podsumowując wartości, Riegl, jak wiemy, podzielił je na dwie główne grupy: wartości pamiątkowe jako wartość wiekowa, wartość historyczna i zamierzona wartość pamiątkowa; oraz współczesne wartości jako wartość użytkowa, wartość sztuki, wartość nowości i względna wartość sztuki. A gdy dochodzi do konfliktu między wartością użytkową a historyczną, traktowanie zabytku powinno uwzględniać przede wszystkim wartość wiekową. Będzie to podstawą wytycznych w problematyce dostępności. Wiele z tych problemów można rozwiązać za pomocą odpowiedniego rozplanowania. To przywrócenie kształtu zabytków jest istotne zarówno dla renowacji miasta, jak ochrony środowiska. W niniejszym artykule chcemy przedstawić różne sposoby udostępniania dziedzictwa kulturowego wszystkim, nie tylko oczywiste priorytety dostępności fizycznej, ale także dostępności w postaci zrozumienia i doświadczenia.

Purpose: The subject matter of the article results from the growing importance of innovation both in the development of enterprises and the entire economy. Design/methodology/approach: This paper is based on research conducted in 104 small and medium-sized industrial companies operating in the West Pomeranian province. For purposes of the research, the author applied the documentary research method and CATI survey. Findings: The findings clearly indicate that efforts taken to create environments conducive to employee innovation in industrial companies in the West Pomerania are not sufficient. The surveyed business environments did not adequately encourage employees to, in particular, expand knowledge, seek novel solutions and did not provide them with access to innovation generating tools. It is the company’s innovation culture and environment that fuels growth and fosters innovation which allows to compete successfully on national and international markets. The paper also brings to light the low level of innovation of Polish economy resulting from the fact that only ca. 17% of the small enterprises and ca. 37% of the medium-sized enterprises can be considered innovative. Research limitations/implications: As part of the article, research was carried out in the West Pomeranian Voivodeship. It is planned to conduct research throughout Poland. Originality/value: The article highlights the need for a comprehensive approach to the innovation generation system in enterprises.

Characterinsing the nature of cybephysical systems is not easy task. What are core aspects and what are not? This is especially tricky in systems-of-systems aggregates. Some EU-funded cyberphysical systems projects have performed a roadmapping exercise over the domain of Cyber-Physical Systems-of-Systems. In particlular, the EU-CPSoS project roadmap has identified three major challenges and eleven research and innovation policies that shall be addressed to solve the three challenges. The third core challenge addresses Cognitive Cyber-physical Systems of Systems. In this article we address the role that knowledge and cognition are to play in future cyber-physical systems of systems from a life-cycle perspective of high autonomy systems.

Creating diagrams is an occasion for a sophisticated analysis of notions and exploring their meaning. It is also a form of direct contact with psychological phenomena and juxtaposing intuition and deduction as sources of cognition. Analysis of the development of philosophical stances can present the process of a departure from the classical view that holds that this argumentation can have a purely formal character (while the role of intuition is significantly reduced). The by-product shall be an explanation of often encountered simplifications associated with understanding both positions associated with their extreme versions: the intuitive relict or the version of formalism that produces an impression of being a sterile and even absurd argument. I argue in favour of the utility of both positions, as they can present interesting aspects of certain problems in architectural proofs at different stages of design, and used to distinguish different diagrams.

PL

Tworzenie diagramów to okazja do wyrafinowanej analizy pojęć i swoistego wnikania w ich treść. To również bezpośredni kontakt ze zjawiskami o charakterze psychologicznymi i przeciwstawieniem intuicji i dedukcji, jako źródeł poznania. Analiza rozwoju stanowisk filozoficznych pozwoli na ukazanie procesu odchodzenia od poglądu klasycznego w myśl, którego w sposób intuicyjny ujmujemy poszczególne etapy rozumowania na rzecz poglądu zgodnie, z którym ta argumentacja może mieć charakter czysto formalny (zaś rola intuicji zostaje mocno zredukowana). Natomiast „produktem ubocznym” będzie wyjaśnienie, pewnych często spotykanych uproszczeń związanych ze zrozumieniem obu stanowisk utożsamianych ze skrajnymi ich wersjami. Intuicyjnego reliktu bądź wersją formalizmu sprawiającej wrażenie, że jest to stanowisko jałowe i wręcz absurdalne. Chcę podkreślić użyteczność obu stanowisk, gdyż pozwalają one na ukazanie ciekawych aspektów problemów w dowodach architektonicznych, na rożnych etapach projektowania i wyodrębnienie różnych diagramów.

The article focuses on selected issues related to hackathon application in creating open innovation within a cluster. The considerations were based mainly on the case study method, desk research, and a literature review. In addition to the introduction and conclusion, it consists of three parts, which characterize the essence of open innovation, the strategic dimension of the hackathon and the cluster experiences with using of hackathon. Based on the results of own research, it was shown that creating open innovations using a hackathon in clusters not only shapes the investment attractiveness of clusters, but also contributes to the construction of an efficient regional innovation ecosyetm. The article draws attention to the fact that the business and social potential of the hackathon provides a wide range of benefits essential for cluster development. Moreover, it is emphasized that the successful application of the hackathon in process of creating open innovations is an example of a strategic challenge for cluster management in a turbulent environment. The research problem in the field of management and quality sciences, analyzed by the Authors as a part of the article is directly related to the essence of strategic and creative entrepreneurship within knowledge-based economy.

Purpose: The aim of studies undertaken in the article is to identify factors that may have an effect on the relationship between the results of interim management projects and increasing their effectiveness. Design/methodology/approach: An empirical-inductive approach – the literature studies and secondary empirical data analyses. Findings: The authors point to the following three key factors: trust, power and knowledge. In the future, the results of the studies presented here will form the foundations to develop an empirical-inductive research program with the aim to verify the significance of the identified factor, the relationships between them and their effect on the effectiveness of the process. It applies not only to commercial organizations, but also to non-profit institutions, political organizations and public utility organizations, such as health care institutions. Practical implications: This article refers to the effectiveness of the implementation process of interim management projects. The effectiveness of the whole process is strongly conditioned by both the competence of the interim manager and the perception of the client. Research results can be used to improve these competences and to improve the effectiveness of IM projects. Originality/value: The pioneering nature of work aimed at filling the existing research gap and answering the research question made the authors opt for an empirical-inductive approach.

Średniowieczny zamek w Czchowie, usytuowany na jednym ze wzgórz nad Dunajcem, stanowi niezwykle malowniczą dominantę w krajobrazie miasta i okolicy. Jest to jeden z najstarszych zamków królewskich zbudowanych przy trakcie handlowym na Węgry. Jako pierwsza powstała wieża strażnicza, której inicjatorem był prawdopodobnie król Wacław II. Strażnica wraz z komorą celną zapewniały militarną i administracyjną ochronę interesów państwa polskiego na jego południowym pograniczu. O wyjątkowości zamku w Czchowie świadczy jego sąsiedztwo w postaci średniowiecznego układu urbanistycznego z gotyckim kościołem i drewnianą dzwonnicą oraz wczesnośredniowiecznej osady o nazwie Grodzisko. W wyniku zakończonej w roku 2018 konserwacji i rekonstrukcji założenia zamkowego dominantą wysokościową krajobrazu miejskiego stała się już nie tylko wolno stojąca wieża, lecz także zrekonstruowana baszta bramna. Oprócz znaczenia w wymiarze symbolicznym i kulturowym zabytek zyskał nowe wartości użytkowe i ekonomiczne jako atrakcja oraz miejsce edukacji i wypoczynku turystów i mieszkańców.

EN

The medieval castle in Czchów, situated on one of the hills above the Dunajec River, is an exceedingly picturesque landmark in the landscape of the town and the nearby countryside. It is one of the oldest royal castles to be built near the trade route to Hungary. A guard tower was the first to be built, probably on the orders of king Wenceslaus II. The guard tower, along with a customs chamber, ensured the military and administrative protection of the Polish state’s interests in its southern borderlands. The exceptionality of Czchów Castle is highlighted by its proximity to a medieval urban layout with a Gothic church and a timber bell tower, along with an early medieval settlement named Grodzisko. As a result of the conservation and reconstruction of the castle complex, it was not only the freestanding tower that acted as the vertical landmark of the townscape, but also the reconstructed gatehouse tower. Apart from its symbolic and cultural significance, the heritage site gained new utilitarian and economic values as an attraction and place of education and rest for tourists and residents.

The construction industry is characterized by limited resources and a high level of competition. Limited resources and a competitive environment determine knowledge and information as a particularly important resource for the development of the construction industry. A communication network is one of the elements of a knowledge management system in projects and serves to organize and maintain information links between project participants. We have analysed the communication network between project participants for residential building construction using social network analysis (SNA). The purpose of this work is the calculation and analysis centrality measures for participants in the construction project delivery. Centrality measures can answer the following questions whether the node is influential or central to the network and whether the node is critical for the flow of information in the network.

In the field of geological education conducted by the Polish Geological Institute (PGI), the Geological Museum has traditionally played the main role. Geological collections have been gathered already since the establishment of the PGI in 1919, and over time, the exhibition and educational activities, popularizing geological knowledge in society, have been continued. Currently, an increasing number of PGI employees, also from outside the Museum, are involved in the education conducted by PGI, which allows the Institute to go "outside the Museum Exhibition Hall” directly into society. This is marked, among others, by the participation in an increasing number of mass outdoor events, as well as by the increasing activity in the protection of geological heritage in Poland. In the future, special emphasis must be paid on education about the necessity and inevitability and, finally, the acceptance of exploitation of raw materials, because we, as a society and individual entities, use things created from the processing of mineral resources every day.
