One of the requirements facing modern organizations is professionalization and the related requirement for a high level of competence. Today, it is impossible to efficiently manage an enterprise and creatively manage employees without theoretical and practical knowledge, experience, skills and commitment in this area. Competencies are assigned an important role in strengthening the company's position in the competitive market. The main aim of the article is to present the importance of managerial competences in enterprise management and to identify the possessed and expected competences of a modern manager in the light of own research. A comparative analysis of the obtained results was made and the competence gap was presented. The analysis of the study indicates a varied level of competency expectations of employees towards the manager. Competencies, attitudes and behaviors important in a manager's work include: the ability to make effective decisions, the ability to communicate with employees (communication within the organization) and with entities in the organization's environment, managing cultural diversity, openness to diversity, analytical skills, building good relationships and trust, and the ability to quick response to changes in tasks and the conditions of their implementation, the ability to create and cooperate in a network, the ability to think strategically and business experience and knowledge.

ABSTRACTThe holistic integration of the human workforce in digital and sustainable manufacturing and logistics systems requires structured approaches for the systematic (re-)alignment of professional education initiatives. Engineering education is seen as a critical investment for the further development of industry and society. However, future engineers will require more than just a strong technological background. Empirical-based success factors that contribute to the holistic reorientation of engineering education are typically researched in a fragmented manner and the focus on competence-orientation is frequently overlooked, especially in the Industrial Engineering and Management (IEM) discipline. In this paper, the authors conduct a systematic literature review on engineering education with an emphasis on competence-based engineering education in the IEM discipline. Moreover, the authors provide fruitful implications for the competence-based realignment of engineering education, present an amalgamated overview of competences that are considered necessary for future engineering education, and provide a set of novel methods and tools.

Ethical competence is not an easily defined concept, especially with respect to the job requirements resulting from new technologies and digital transformation of the economy. The present paper attempts to define the competence profile of a worker in knowledge-based economy and workplaces using automation and digital technologies, but in relation to sources from encyclicals and other moral-theological documents. This profile includes specific ethical criteria, which are relevant and valid regardless of the times. Moreover, in the face of technological progress in modern economies, these criteria seem to have the power to influence the effectiveness of work processes. Thus, features such as respect for human dignity, responsibility, honesty, quality, courage, trustworthiness, justice, and secrecy should be considered as key for recruitment and evaluation of human capital in the modern labour market. As these are values mentioned in moral-theological documents, including papal encyclicals, they refer to the essence of human work and ensure that no man is reified.
