Abstract. For the last twenty years, G. Hofstede's classification of cultural factors has been one of the basic approaches to the development of the majority of modern typologies of national business cultures. The purpose of the research is to compare cross-cultural characteristics of modern Ukrainian and Polish business cultures with regard to G. Hofstede's classification of cultural factors. To achieve this goal, we have compared modern Ukrainian and Polish business cultures according to Hofstede's classification of cultural factors. Key cross-cultural differences of Ukrainian and Polish business cultures have been defined, which are a higher level of collectivism in Ukrainian culture, masculinity of Polish culture versus femininity of Ukrainian culture and medium-term orientation in Ukrainian culture in comparison with short-term orientation of Polish culture. Further research will be devoted to the development of practical recommendations regarding cross-cultural interaction with representatives of modern Ukrainian and Polish business cultures based on the defined cross-cultural peculiarities of the Ukrainian and Polish management.

Хофстеде Анотація. Останні двадцять років концепція культурних чинників Г. Хофстеде є одним з основних підходів для розробки більшості сучасних моделей типології національних культур. Метою цього дослідження є порівняння крос-культурних особливостей сучасних ділових культур України та Польщі на основі концепції культурних вимірів Г. Хофстеде. Для досягнення поставленої мети проведено порівняння особливостей сучасної ділової культури України та Польщі на основі концепції Г. Хофстеде. У результаті проведеного дослідження виявлено ключові крос-культурні відмінності української та польської ділової культури, а саме: більш високий рівень колективізму в українській культурі; мужність польської культури на противагу жіночності української культури; орієнтація на майбутнє в українській культурі на відміну від орієнтації на минуле й сьогодення польської культури. Подальшими шляхами продовження дослідження стане розробка практичних рекомендацій щодо крос-культурної взаємодії з представниками сучасної української та польської ділової культури на основі визначених крос-культурних особливостей менеджменту цих країн. Ключові слова: дистанція влади; індивідуалізм; колективізм; жіночність; мужність; уникнення невизначеності; довгострокова орієнтація; стриманість; ук...
ABSTRACT. The aim of this study is to evaluate the generational values of Ukrainian generation Y on the basis of evaluation, comparison and analysis of the generational values' structure of the senior school pupils and students, using M. Rokeach's approach. In the questionnaire which was conducted during October-December 2016 in Kharkiv (Ukraine), two groups of respondents took part: senior pupils of the Kharkiv gymnasium #47 and students of the Simon Kuznets Kharkiv National University of Economics.

Key challenges for management at the global level are developing a new generation of cross-cultural leaders, attracting and retaining talents in the country. Within the framework of cross-cultural business environment, the authority of the leader and his personal growth appears to be key factors of leadership effectiveness. Developing a new generation of leaders, attracting and retaining talent are key challenges for leaders at the global level. That is, in modern conditions, formation of effective leader-ship in a cross-cultural space becomes actual with the process of deeper internationalization of business. The quantitative assessment of the development of leadership levels, taking into account cross-cultural characteristics was carried out. The main concept of this assessment is that the higher the value and the more dominant the manifestation of stimulants, the higher the level of leadership development. Based on this assessment, the liminal values of dominant cross-cultural factors contributing to the development of leadership in the company were determined. In addition, five levels of leadership development, which are classified in this assessment, describe the stages of personal growth of every leader. The development level of leadership was determined in countries like Vietnam, North Korea, India, Kazakhstan, Mongolia, Ukraine, China, Sweden, South Korea, USA and Finland. Companies, which are not leaders and not outsiders in n a particular business area of the country but have stable status and with headquarters in the respective country, were chosen for analysis. It is determined that the lowest level of leadership development is observed in companies of Vietnam and North Korea (the first level). In companies of India and Kazakhstan the second level of leadership development was predominantly formed. The third level of leadership development in personnel management is inherent in the management system of companies in Mongolia, Ukraine and China. In addition, the fourth level of leadership development is determined in companies of Sweden and South Korea. The highest level of leadership development (the fifth) is observed in the management system of companies in Finland and the USA. The determined levels form the basis for cross-cultural characteristics of the leadership development of these countries.
