This paper analyzes the works of management classics such as Russell Ackoff, Nancy Adler, Frederick Herzberg, Chris Argyris, Bennis Warren, Lyndall Urwick, experts of Aston Group, and others. A common bond between them is organizational behavior and the fact that their work was written in the last century and that elements of their theories were the basis for the neoclassical management theories that predominate today. Purpose. The aim is to identify commonalities with the iterative-incremental (agile) approach to development and management from classical management theories. Methodology. The paper analyses classical management papers in organizational behavior and leadership theory to identify commonalities with the iterative-incremental approach to management. The two categories are considered holistically, as leadership can determine organizational behavior. The paper applies ontological and integrated approaches. Results. The paper identifies standard features of classical theories and agile approaches to management. It indicates that classical approaches to management have formed the basis of agile approaches to management. Practical implications. The results apply to social management and organizational psychology scholars. In addition, the results will help to scientists write textbooks and manuals on management theory and related disciplines. The study’s results contribute to developing the history of managerial thought.

The management of the organization in the context of the Management 3.0 concept can be considered as an alternative and upgrading approach to the formation and sustainable development of organizations compared to the currently popular models and concepts. The change in the thinking of managers and the kind of renaissance of the systemic approach in management are a prerequisite for updating the management toolkit in a way that implies such an impact on employees and teams that comprehensively and synergistically develops the entire system. The aim of the present work is, through the synthesis and analysis of specialized primary and secondary information sources, to systematize techniques for the manager's behavioral response as a coach and mediator, and in the context of the Management 3.0 concept. The defended author's thesis is that with appropriate tools, the manager of the business organization can successfully meet all challenges in the relationship with his employees, and the development of the system is directly dependent on the development of the manager's skills to individually and comprehensively influence the system and its participants.
