Meaning of Discourse Analysis in Methodology of Management Sciences
(Wydawnictwa AGH, 2023) Bujak-Lechowicz, Jolanta; Kocoń, Paweł
Discourse analysis is a research method well rooted in linguistics and in such sciences as sociology and cultural studies. Meanwhile, in management sciences, discourse analysis seems to be ignored and marginalized. At first glance, the answer to the question whether discourse analysis supports the research process in the field of management sciences may seem obvious. On the other hand, discourse analysis is relatively rarely used in scientific research and business practice. To understand the possible applications of discourse analysis, the definition of the term was first reviewed. Secondly, phenomena are discussed, the nature of which makes it possible to understand discourse analysis; special attention was paid to public relations. The article ends with a recommendation to improve the synergy effect between management and discourse analysis. Discourse analysis is a difficult and non-obvious research method derived from the humanities, but necessary when it is necessary to study what is hidden in the organization, inaccessible directly to the researcher.

Agile Management
(Wydawnictwa AGH, 2023) Szyjewski, Zdzisław
The changes caused by a pandemic have a very strong impact on many areas of activity. The long-term plans set out in the operating strategy of companies and organizations have become of little use in the new business conditions. Many companies are urgently required to develop a new strategic approach that takes account of the post-pandemic situation. The question is whether the traditional approach to strategy building and strategic management can be applied. The article analyzes strategic management in new conditions and proposes a new agile approach called digital stractics.

Financial Inclusion and Its Relationship in Inclusive Economic Growth
(Wydawnictwa AGH, 2023) Wójcik-Czerniawska, Agnieszka
The purpose of this study is to discuss the relationship between financial inclusion and inclusive economic growth. Financial inclusion is the ability to gain access to relevant and affordable financial products and services applicable to their needs in transactions, payments, savings, credit, and insurance, delivered ethically and sustainably. Financial inclusion and economic growth are becoming increasingly important to national development. I will use the phenomenon of rapidly expanding financial inclusion in Asia without increasing economic growth or reducing income inequality for this study. Moreover, the impact of financial inclusion on economic development, poverty, income inequality, and financial stability is inconsistent, and there is a lack of comprehensive research. Economic development can be significantly increased through digital financial inclusion, while income disparities can be reduced and poverty can be significantly reduced based on empirical findings. The Global Index Database estimates that 50% of the adult population lacks access to formal financial services.

Attractiveness of Games and Business Simulations in Teaching Process
(Wydawnictwa AGH, 2023) Wieroński, Tomasz
This study aims to assess the attractiveness of games and business simulations in the teaching process. The presented overview concerns their application in primary and secondary schools, at universities and in business. Among the most important benefits were the development of participants’ creativity and the use of games as effective tools for imparting practical knowledge. The chapter presents the results of a survey completed by 97 participants. The study showed that the use of games and business simulations is positively perceived by trainees and students, but this form of knowledge transfer must be used with awareness of its limitations relative to other forms. The last section focuses on conclusions and suggested possibilities for further development of games and simulations in the teaching process. Colloquially: does the use of business games make learning a more enjoyable and less boring process? Is the preferred option for acquiring practical knowledge the choice of a book or attending a lecture, or would participants prefer game- and simulation-based learning?

Methodological Aspects of Innovation of Project and Production Businesses
(Wydawnictwa AGH, 2023) Sala, Jolanta; Tańska, Halina
In this chapter the authors present a proposal of selected aspects of methodology for improving individual and team innovation in enterprises. Methodological aspects were reasoned with measurements of the level of innovation by GUS and its causes in Poland. The reasons for the low level of innovation are justified by historical roots, as the seven main points formulated by PTI in 1980, similarly to the 21 postulates of “Solidarity”, accurately reflect the main reasons for Poland’s backwardness in development and, unfortunately, most of them are still valid. These reasons require action on the part of the Polish state, but they should also be used in bottom-up activities of each enterprise after minor interpretation corrections. The chapter focuses on industrial enterprises, because the realities of creativity of engineers and technicians are different from workers in other sectors of the economy. An important determinant of creativity in industrial enterprises with aspirations to design their products and production processes is the set of instruments, in particular CAD/CAM/CAE. Three methodological proposals guarantee a faster and more effective way to creativity and innovativeness of enterprises, although their implementation requires a lot of effort on the part of both employees and their employers. At the same time, they are a prerequisite for acquiring the ability to make strategic innovations in the enterprise. The developed methodological solutions have been tested in practice and constitute an institutional recommendation.
