The paper presents the results of the study of the influence of the dimensions of organizational culture on individual entrepreneurial orientation dimensions, the achievement dimension and the theory of planned behaviour dimensions. The respondents were employed persons. There were 540 respondents from 72 organizations. The moderating effect of the respondents’ gender on the observed relationships was also examined. From all the dimensions of organizational culture, power distance has the greatest impact on the entrepreneurial intentions of employed persons. Entrepreneurial intentions weaken when there is group collectivism in the organization and when there is an assertive environment in the organization.

The current study applies content analysis to scrutinize the relationship between Twitter messaging tactics employed by 186 Public Benefit Organizations (PBO) and public reactions in the form of liking, retweeting and commenting behaviour. The results indicate that Twitter plays a marginal role in the Polish PBO, and it seems to be at most complementary to the much more frequently utilized Facebook. Furthermore, the size of the organization does not affect the frequency of the published content on Twitter. Multiple regression analysis indicated that the most important factor influencing audience engagement was the Twitter profile number of followers. It explained the largest percentage of variance in terms of the average number of retweets, the average number of likes, and the percentage of tweets that were then commented on.

The purpose of this study is to discuss the influence of excellence in the use of performance management and quality improvements tools on performance of Czech municipalities, and especially their cost efficiency. Municipalities' performance is analyzed using data envelopment analysis focused on inputs. A quasi-experimental design is utilized and excelling municipalities are compared with two control groups. The first is represented by municipalities that use excellence models and quality improvement tools but have not been awarded a national excellence prize; the second by municipalities which do not use them. The results do not indicate any significant difference between the three groups of municipalities. This means that the excellence in utilization of performance management and quality improvement tools does not produce performance approaching that of cost efficiency.

The aim of the study is to determine the preferred leadership and followership styles, as well as the statistical significance of differences between those preferences among individuals employed in both state and privately owned companies in Serbia and Macedonia. Leadership and followership are important for the efficient functioning of all organizations. Leadership and followership issues are particularly important in transition countries, such as Serbia and Macedonia, where directors general of organizations are no longer appointed politically but are leaders selected according to their capacities. Nationality and type of the organization ownership, the relation between gender and position occupied by an individual within a business organization (a manager, an employee), as well as the preferred style of leadership and followership, have been analyzed. The study was carried out on the sample of 172 participants from Serbia and Macedonia. The data were collected by means of the Personal Questionnaire for Followership Styles designed by Robert E. Kelley (1998), and Fiedler’s LPC scale (Least Preferred Coworker, 1984) which was used to evaluate the preferred leadership style. The results indicate that there is no difference in the preferred leadership styles in relation to gender, nationality or positions occupied by the company employees, but there is a difference between the employees who are in the state- or in the privately-owned companies. The participants working in state owned companies prefer a permissive leadership style, i.e. relationship-oriented. The results show that most of the employees in both state- and privately-owned business organizations prefer an active followership, with statistically significant differences compared to the other followership styles. No relationship was found between gender, nationality, type of organization ownership and position occupied by the individual within a business organization, for the preferred followership style.
本研究的目的是确定在塞尔维亚和马其顿的国有和私营公司工作的个人之间偏好的领导和追随风格，以及这些偏好之间差异的统计意义。领导和追随对于所有组织的有效运作都很重要。在塞尔维亚和马其顿等转型期国家，领导和追随问题特别重要，在这些国家，各组织的总干事不再由政治任命，而是根据其能力选出领导人。分析了组织所有权的国籍和类型，性别与个人在商业组织中所占据的位置(经理，员工)之间的关系，以及首选的领导和追随风格。这项研究对来自塞尔维亚和马其顿的172名参与者进行了抽样调查。数据采用Robert E. Kelley(1998)设计的《追随风格个人问卷》和Fiedler的LPC量表(Least Preferred colleague, 1984)来评估首选领导风格。结果表明，企业员工对领导风格的偏好在性别、国籍和职位上没有差异，但在国有企业和私营企业员工之间存在差异。在国有企业工作的参与者更喜欢宽松的领导风格，即以关系为导向。结果表明，无论是国有企业还是私营企业，大多数员工都更倾向于积极的追随关系，与其他类型的追随关系相比，差异有统计学意义。性别、国籍、组织所有权类型与个人在企业组织中所担任的职位之间没有关系。

Our research aims to identify the nature of the outward foreign direct investment done by Polish firms in remote markets. By exploring quantitatively and qualitatively the flows and stocks of Polish FDIs conducted outside Europe and examining the data on projects conducted by Polish firms outside Europe the authors try to diagnose the internationalisation motives and location patterns of Polish firms in distant regions. The results showed that, although marginal, the presence of Polish investors in foreign markets comes in diversified forms, ranging from pure export servicing and sales to bold greenfield projects created from scratch.

Previous studies point to many inconsistencies regarding the determinants of job quitting. This study focuses on the impact of nurses’ job satisfaction, work motivation, nursing practice environment, personal characteristics and absenteeism on their intention to leave the job. An anonymous survey was performed on a sample of Croatian registered nurses. The results indicate that nurses’ job dissatisfaction, combined with a higher rate of absenteeism, represents a clear indication of their future turnovers. Nursing practice environment and personal motivation do not have a significant direct effect on the Intention to leave the job, but do have an indirect one through job satisfaction.

Social networks are an important variable which explain career issues such as career satisfaction, success, development and employment. However, research is often conducted separately from different theoretical perspective, i.e. social capital, social network analysis or networking, such that the comparison of findings across studies is difficult. The major question posed by our research concerns how employees' networking behaviours (behavioural perspective) and the individual social capital related to work (resource-based) influence the quality of careers. The discussion draws upon a survey carried out among employees (N=373) with a usage of American and Dutch research tools adapted to Polish conditions. Explanatory factor analysis followed to appoint adequate networking behaviours. Descriptive statistical and correlation analyses were then performed between variables in order to test the formulated hypotheses. The results of the study show that networking behaviour is a good predictor of career satisfaction and prospects, while individual social capital related to work is only related to career prospects. The influence of individual social capital related to work on career prospects is weaker than the influence of networking behaviours on career prospects. Thus, the behavioural perspective provides more explanations of career issues than the resources perspective. This paper contributes to the prior literature on individual social capital, networking behaviours and career issues by explaining how two different perspectives of social network influence career satisfaction and prospects. The value of the research is the usage of independent variables representing two different theoretical perspectives to test their impact on dependent variables i.e. career satisfaction and career prospects. The paper concludes with implications for further research and provides some hints for employees and organisations focused on successful work and career.
