Purpose: This paper investigates how project-oriented structures enhance organizational innovativeness in technology-based, knowledge-intensive business service (T-KIBS) firms in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE). By focusing on how and why project orientation stimulates innovation, the study addresses a gap in project theory within innovation research. Design/methodology/approach: A qualitative approach was adopted, involving 22 semi- structured interviews with senior management, project leaders, and innovation managers in T-KIBS companies operating in CEE. Data were collected during the third and fourth quarters of 2018 and analyzed using both categorization and thematic analysis. Findings: Results indicate a positive association between project orientation and higher levels of innovativeness, driven by four distinguishing project characteristics: uniqueness, autonomy, co-production, and transcendence. The study proposes a conceptual model that identifies 13 potential moderators of this relationship, including management support, leadership style, strategic planning, control mechanisms, employee competences, cross-functional teams, staff engagement, client involvement, inter-project collaboration, internal reporting systems, accessible information, risk tolerance, and an overall willingness to innovate. Originality/value: This research advances both project management and innovation theory by introducing a framework that connects project-based organizing with firm-level innovativeness in the T-KIBS sector. From a theoretical perspective, the findings highlight the significance of industry-specific contexts, suggesting that unique sectoral conditions can shape project management practices and, in turn, drive innovation outcomes.

W artykule przedstawiono zagadnienia hydrauliczne oraz geotechniczne i konstrukcyjne charakterystyczne dla infrastruktury odprowadzania wód opadowych w obszarach miejskich zlokalizowanych na zboczach. W procesie kształtowania wielu takich ośrodków zignorowano naturalne ścieżki (potoki, strumyki) przemieszczenia się wody w kierunku morza lub dolin rzecznych. W efekcie takie miasta podczas intensywnych opadów ulegają lokalnym podtopieniom – dotyczy to zarówno dróg, jak i budynków. Artykuł opisuje napotkane problemy i zaproponowane rozwiązania dla specyficznego zadania usunięcia tego typu zdarzeń, ale przede wszystkim pokazuje typowy tok postępowania w przypadku tego typu projektów.

EN

Article regards hydraulic, geotechnical and structural aspects characteristic for infrastructure dedicated for rainwater drainage in the urban zones located at hillsides/slopes. In the process of development of such places the natural pathways of water flow in the direction of rivers or sea were ignored. Consequently, during the intense precipitations discussed towns undergo local flooding – it requires both roads and buildings. The article describes the problems encountered and proposed solutions for a specific task regarding removal of such events, however it mostly shows a typical pathway in case of planning and execution of these types of projects.

Artykuł stanowi analizę przyczyn przewlekłości procedur środowiskowych w Polsce, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem postępowań związanych z wydawaniem decyzji o środowiskowych uwarunkowaniach oraz kolejnych etapów procesu inwestycyjnego – od planowania przestrzennego po odwołania sądowo-administracyjne. Omówiono zarówno czynniki formalno-prawne (np. wieloetapowość procedur, obowiązki uzgodnień, udział wielu organów), jak i praktyczne przeszkody w postępowaniach, takie jak: niepełna dokumentacja, niskiej jakości raporty OOŚ, brak skutecznej komunikacji z organami oraz częste braki kadrowe i kompetencyjne po stronie administracji. Szczególną uwagę poświęcono roli organizacji ekologicznych i społeczności lokalnych, które – jako strony lub uczestnicy postępowania – mogą wnosić merytoryczne uwagi, żądać uzupełnień dokumentacji, a w razie nieuwzględnienia ich głosu – składać odwołania i skargi do sądów. Choć wpływ społeczny zwiększa transparentność procesu, w praktyce może również wydłużać procedury, zwłaszcza w sytuacjach konfliktowych. Przeciwdziałanie przewlekłości postępowań wymaga zarówno uproszczenia procedur administracyjnych, jak i wczesnego włączenia społeczeństwa w proces decyzyjny oraz podniesienia jakości dokumentacji środowiskowej.

EN

The article offers the analysis for reasons for protracted environmental procedures in Poland, with special consideration of procedures related to the issuance of environmental decisions and subsequent stages of the investment process – from spatial planning to judicial and administrative appeals. The article discusses not only formal and legal factors (e.g., multi-stage procedures, consultation obligations, involvement of multiple authorities) but also practical obstacles in proceedings, such as incomplete documentation, low quality of EIA reports, lack of effective communication with authorities and frequent staff and competence shortages in administration. Special attention is paid to the role of ecological organizations and local communities which, as parties or participants in proceedings, can submit substantive comments, request the completion of documentation or if their views are not taken into account, lodge appeals and complaints with the courts. Even though public involvement increases transparency of the process, in practice it may also prolong procedures, especially in case of conflicts. All this leads to the conclusion that counteracting the protracted nature of proceedings requires both administrative procedure simplification and early involvement of the public in the decision-making process and also the improvement of the quality of environmental documentation.

Purpose: The aim is to evaluate the operation of the Model Teacher Training School drawing on the example of the “Model Teacher Training School in Niemcz and Osielsko” project completed against the project evaluation findings in terms of the directions of continuing the operation of the teacher training school and its effective impact on supported schools. Design/methodology/approach: The article presents a case study of a Model Teacher Training School in Poland as a modern teacher competence support system. There are identified some selected aspects of the operation of the teacher training school established as part of the project cofounded by the EU. Project evaluation research process is discussed and selected evaluation research findings are presented for the sample of 55 teachers, including headmasters and deputy headmasters of seven supported schools. The research process has involved diagnostic methods and tools: CAWI (Computer Assisted Web Interview), which uses the Microsoft Forms tool. Selected CATI qualitative research findings have been presented for a sample of 8 respondents, including the representatives of the Beneficiary and the Partner, headmasters and deputy headmasters of the Training School, the representatives of the higher education provider and the supporting institution. Findings: The school serving a function of the Training School performs actions focused on a teacher competence development in Supported Schools in selected forms and work methods. The idea of the modern approach to teacher competence enhancement is a cooperation of the Training School with experts of educational institutions: the higher education provider, supporting institutions and the education superintendent authority. It is also valuable every year to include new Supported Schools into the supporting process and improving the forms and methods of working with teachers. It is possible to the evaluation of the actions performed the findings of which facilitate a further determination of directions of continuing the operation of the Model Training School for the years to come. Research limitations/implications: Compliant with the Training School Model, the operation of teacher training schools should be subject to annual evaluation process, which will enhance the quality of the actions by increasing the correctness, effectiveness, usefulness, efficiency and lifespan. Some limitation to undertaking the research process is a problem with financing the evaluation research which must be financed outside the project. Practical implications: The evaluation research findings, including the expectations of supported schools’ teaching and management staff, have facilitated a further determination of support forms which should be offered by the teacher training school throughout the project, which is for the upcoming 5 years. The forms of support which should be continued throughout the project life offer a possibility of using ready-made teaching aids, a participation in discussion forums, sharing blogs and methodology workshops. The teachers have slightly lower expectations in terms of continuing their participation in conferences and seminars, working on-line on the doskonaleniewsieci.pl platform, taking part in demo classes, consultations and stationary cooperation networks. Social implications: The teacher training school operation will affect the social domain as the teacher training school, by offering an adequate support to the teachers and including new schools into cooperation, will enhance a development of the key student competences, especially foreign languages learning, mathematics, natural sciences, ICT and teachers sharing their knowledge and skills. Originality/value: The teacher training school model presented as well as the evaluation research findings provide a recommendation for practical professional development of primary school teachers in Poland.

The construction sector in emerging nations like Pakistan faces challenges due to the limited use of advanced technology. Building Information Modeling (BIM) offers key benefits, including cost savings, reduced rework, and early detection of design faults. BIM also manages large amounts of data by integrating information from various phases of the project lifecycle. This study examines BIM’s impact on planning, design, and construction phases through a survey of 40 field experts, ranked using the Likert scale. Results show that BIM enhances collaboration, supports better design pathways, and assists project managers during planning. In design, it improves information sharing, efficiency, and scheduling. During construction, BIM facilitates seamless information flow, visualized model execution, and effective risk management. The findings highlight BIM’s potential to address lifecycle challenges and improve overall project outcomes.

Idea rozstrzygnięcia każdego projektu pochodzi ze źródła pozbawionego precyzyjnej definicji. Nie istnieje definicja źródła, jednak istnieje nierozerwalny splot wielu współzależnych warstw niezbędnych do kreacji, a wśród najważniejszych są: warstwy wiedzy i precyzyjnego myślenia, determinujące funkcje narzędzi myślenia, nadających kształt idei oraz warstwy wymykające się definicji, determinowane wyczuciem i wrażliwością twórcy, cechujące obszary sztuki. Jeśli świadomie kreowana forma, łącząca różnorodne materie, scala ciągi funkcji dla działań, konstruuje dla trwałości tworząc jednocześnie niepowtarzalne walory dla percepcji - wpisuje się w przestrzeń ARCHITEKTURY. Jeśli materia formowana przez człowieka wywołuje emocje i wrażenia, jeśli tworzy oferując iluzje, przenika i wzbogaca wyobraźnię pozostawiając w niej trwały ślad - wpisuje się w przestrzeń SZTUKI.

EN

The idea of resolving any project comes from a source without a precise definition. There is no definition of the source, but there is an inseparable weave of many interdependent layers necessary for creation, and among the most important are: layers of knowledge and precise thinking, determining the functions of the tools that give shape to the idea, and layers that escape definition, determined by the intuition and sensitivity of the creator, characterizing the areas of art. If a consciously created form combining a variety of matters, merges sequences of functions for activities, constructs for permanence while creating unique qualities for perception - it fits into the space of ARCHITECTURE. If the matter formed by man evokes emotions and impressions, if it creates by offering illusions, penetrates and enriches the imagination, leaving a permanent trace in it - it is inscribed in the space of ART.

Purpose: The project approach is often used to implement projects in enterprises. Traditional project management becomes insufficient due to the changing environment and the need for flexible functioning of the organization. Hence, agility in management gains recognition. The article presents the results of the study, the purpose of which was to determine whether the assumptions of agile management are known and used in project management and to identify factors that sustain the involvement of project team members. Design/methodology/approach: The presented empirical research was carried out using the quantitative and qualitative methods. Techniques of expert interviews were used, and in the case of quantitative research - a questionnaire. The use of two research techniques was aimed at obtaining a broad view of the project management methods used, with particular emphasis on the conditions of the working environment of agile project teams. Enterprises from the small and medium-sized enterprise sector were invited to the study, the main variable in the selection of entities for the research sample was the location by region, i.e. the northern subregion of the Silesian Voivodeship, and cooperation with the Częstochowa University of Technology for the commercialization of knowledge in the region. The latter condition made it possible to include enterprises that implement projects. Findings: Research has shown knowledge of the assumptions of agile management among small and medium-sized enterprises, but less than half of the surveyed experts use this methodology in managing project teams. According to experts, the main condition for implementing agile management is a "good", i.e. primarily a self-organizing project team. Its members are required to have appropriate skills and competences, such as self-discipline or independence in making decisions. The research also identified work conditions that keep members of agile project teams engaged. They are strongly related to the intrinsic motivation of employees. On this basis, it can be concluded that the agile approach in shaping work conditions is stimulating to stimulate the expected behavior of employees. Originality/value: The article draws attention to the rarely discussed issue of implementing project management in small and medium-sized enterprises. The conditions for implementing agility in project team management were emphasized, among which the most important is the right selection of employees. They should have appropriate skills and competences, as well as an internal motivation system, which agile management methodologies will stimulate the activity and involvement of project team members.
