Abstract:
The study analyzed the importance of the emergent approach for the competitiveness of manufacturing companies in Slovakia. It also examined the current market environment for managing initiatives aimed at achieving corporate change and the current approach to corporate change management. The aim of the paper is to identify the key factors of the emergent approach that contribute to the effective implementation and management of corporate changes. The research explored the relationship between assumptions and satisfaction with the implemented change. The study employs Pearson’s chi-squared test and Fisher’s exact test to verify the significance of critical assumptions in the implementation of corporate changes. Through the research, we found that, for effective corporate change management, it is important to define the objective that the change is intended to achieve, as well as to monitor data on the progress of the corporate change implementation. In managing corporate changes within manufacturing companies, it is crucial to define critical factors such as regular monitoring, informing participants, preparing a comprehensive plan, and implementing a system to track incremental successes achieved through change. These factors can enhance the competitiveness of a manufacturing company in the market environment. Based on the results of the conducted research, it can be concluded that the impact of the emergent approach has a significant influence on the development of the competitiveness of manufacturing companies in the international market environment.
