Some people are motivated by material incentives, others by personal recognition, others are mostly interested in interesting work. It is important for practitioners of HR managers to know the specifics of their employees in order to be able to motivate them adequately. A major contribution to the theory of motivation is the eminent scholar Edgar Shane - the creator of the term "corporate culture." He believes that there are 8 core values in the work of collaborators, which he calls "career anchors." Each "anchor" has its own type of motivation. What are the anchors? This is a classification of eight types of determinations of what can lead a career in a person. Affiliation / self-determination / orientation to one or the other anchor depends mostly on our personal: ➢ Values and priorities; ➢ Concrete beliefs on topics such as what career...

This involves looking at the organizational structure, planning activities, responsibilities, practices, procedures, processes and resources for developing, implementing, achieving, reviewing and maintaining environmental policy. Basic principles and requirements of the environmental management system are aimed at identifying, researching, controlling and reviewing the factors influencing the environment, which allow businesses and public organizations to formulate policies and objectives aimed at protection of the environment. By introducing an environmental management system, organizations simultaneously declare, declare their commitment and guarantee to society as a whole that they are genuinely committed to solving environmental problems. European environmental policy is based on the principle of precautionary measures, preventive action and the elimination of pollution at source, ...

Environmental problems are intertwined with socioeconomic problems, especially in poor developing countries. In addition, environmental management faces a number of challenges in the modern world. Increasingly, countries will face a number of challenges, which will be a major threat to developing countries, as they do not have sufficient financial and material resources and, on the other hand, have similar socio-economic and physical problems. This article will attempt to outline the socio-economic problems resulting from rising average temperatures, which will outline the challenges facing institutions responsible for environmental management processes. Attention will be paid to the emergence of uns...

Based on an analysis of the existing problems in the demographic and socioeconomic development of the municipalities in the Republic of Bulgaria, the emphasis is on opportunities to stimulate the regions and their gradual economic and social recovery to pre-pandemic levels. Attention will also be paid to the strategic planning for the reconstruction of the regions and the projected development for reducing the inequalities of the territorial-administrative units in the country in the medium and long term. In the decade to 2030 on the agenda in Bulgaria will be the need for territorial and administrative reform in line with the demographic and socioeconomic situation of the country. In addition, the next programming period 2021-2027. Efforts will be focused entirely on stimulating recovery opportunities from the COVID-19 pandemic and the expected financial and economic crisis. Conducting any study to identify the problems arising from the COVID-19 pandemic in the field of regional development would help to implement an effective regional policy, both by the central executive and by local governments. For the restoration and normalization of the socioeconomic relations, special attention should be paid to the improvement of the process related to the development of strategies for territory management and utilization of the areas adjacent to the lands of lagging municipalities. On the other hand, it is necessary to perform a comprehensive analysis in order to assess the development of municipalities in the Republic of Bulgaria and to determine trends and prospects for recovery and catching up with the regions in the European Union. This process presupposes, on the one hand, the development and testing of new assessment models, and, on the other hand, the reorganization of the management of the national territory and its constituent territorial-administrative divisions. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, discussions on redefining the concepts related to the deepening disparities between the individual territorial-administrative units should be brought to the forefront, rethinking a number of existing programs and strategies in the assessment of the planned, expected and achieved results from the program financing with funds from the structural funds of the European Union and the provided financing and / or co-financing from the central budget of the country.

Peculiarities in the Socio-Economic Development of the Regions in Bulgaria

A particular influence on the degree of development of the individual regions in the country plays the presence of large cities in which production, services, education, science and cultural life are concentrated. On the one hand, the uneven distribution of large cities has a direct impact on the socio-economic development of the individual regions, on the other hand the demographic processes are important and have an impact on the development of the regions in the country. Special importance with regard to the socioeconomic development of the regions should be given to the autonomy of regional authorities as well as the availability of financial and managerial independence of local authorities, which can be co...

Also important are the resources that are needed for the functioning and development of the security sector, especially in the context of globalization. In order to achieve effective maintenance of regional economic security, attention needs to be paid to both the social and financial spheres, the energy sector and the security sector. Especially in the field of human resource development, the search for opportunities for reducing unemployment, social inclusion of disadvantaged people and working with minorities, which are important elements for maintaining stable regional economic security for the individual territorial unit. Naturally, the possibility of maintaining a stable banking system and national currency should also be kept in mind. Crucial to stability is the maintenance of inter...

Especially in the last few years, when Europe was flooded by giant waves of immigrants, which on the one hand created a serious problem in clarifying their identity and origin, and on the other hand caused significant changes in the socioeconomic life of EU member states. This has led to the emergence and consideration of a number of issues related to the adoption of emergency measures for the distribution, accommodation and administration of migration and refugee flows by the central executive authorities of the Member States of the European Union. On the other hand, it provoked the formation of a policy focused on medium-and long-term conceptual planning and restructuring of public attitudes, applied concepts, developed strategies and implemented specific measures to address mass migration movements by creating opportunities for integration and inclusion of immigrants in social the economic and social life of the host country. While in 2020, as a result of the pandemic of COVID-19, there was a wave of reverse migration, which in turn caused social and economic consequences and problems in the individual administrative-territorial units of a number of countries, including the Republic of Bulgaria. This process has necessitated the study of local communities, as well as the planning and implementation of various mechanisms to address the problems that arose during the pandemic. The process of integration of immigrants has different dimensions, which are related on the one hand to their inclusion in the community, and on the other hand to their employment. This report will pay attention to the reverse migration on the territory of the Republic of Bulgaria and will pay significant attention to certain economic and social features in the formation and planning of policies and measures to address the pandemic of COVID-19 and the protection of national security of the country in the context of the economic and demographic aspect.

Regionally aspect, the countries of Southeast Europe are experiencing serious difficulties in securing a quality workforce of specialists with secondary education who are well trained professionals with the necessary communication skills and ability to work with modern technologies. On the other hand, the trend of outflow of specialists from the countries, especially important is the continued emigration of young people as a result of which will emerge not only quantitative but also qualitative workforce problems in the coming years. Government policy should be aimed at seeking ways to stimulate job creation in sectors providing higher productivity and competitiveness rather than those who have traditional and low productive nature. Identifying and taking into account the pecu...
