Stanislav Konečný

The topic of our research task of the same name VEGA 1/0757/17 was based on the question – and was likewise defined in its approved project – how public administration as one of the providers of public services can act as efficiently as possible in favour of making these services available from the aspect (place of permanent residence) of the citizen.

This can be done with a certain optimality in the structure of public administration, primarily at the local, but also at the supra-local, e.g. regional, level. If, for example, the settlement structure is too disintegrated, or conversely the regional structure is too aggregated (or even too fragmented), various alternative solutions must be sought that are rational and optimal for satisfying citizens and that will not waste public resources.

In this, it is also questionable how the system of state administration authorities and local government authorities is reflected in this structure (in the case of known differences in their operation in both these regimes, or in a regime of delegated performance of state administration), including the conditions of funding these services as public services.

Marketing bol donedávna spájaný s koncepciou ziskovosti a konkurencieschopnosti. V posledných rokoch sa však uplatňuje aj v organizáciách, ktoré nedosahujú zisk, ako napr. kultúrne a vzdelávacie inštitúcie, politické strany, dobrovoľné alebo charitatívne organizácie, ale aj pri propagovaní ľudí a ich názorov, udalostí a miest. Dôvodom je predovšetkým tlak na efektívnejšie využívanie verejných zdrojov, ako aj narastajúca konkurencia. Koncepcia marketingu územia ovplyvňuje tak názory na miesto pobytu, priemyselné a obchodné zóny, územie, cestovný ruch a územný imidž. Predložený vysokoškolský učebný text, slúži ako študijný materiál ponúkajúci základy marketingu aplikovaného pre oblasť služieb a pre oblasť teritória: je určený predovšetkým pre študentov voliteľných predmetov na Fakulte verejnej správy.

Public Administration as a Provider of Public Welfare State Services – Utilizing Foreign Experience for Reforms in the Slovak Republic

The vast majority of these publication outputs are relatively easily accessible to domestic readers, whether in print or electronic form. However, since several key published outputs are less accessible to Slovak readers for various reasons, we decided to reprint at least some of them in their Slovak-language versions in this collection. As all the texts reprinted here underwent proper peer review during their original publication, it was no longer necessary to review their Slovak-language versions again. For each published study, we therefore provide bibliographic details of its original publication, including the names of reviewers, scientific editors, and others.

Hlavným cieľom publikácie bolo zistiť vplyv motivácie a pracovnej spokojnosti na výkonnosť a výkon zamestnancov organizácií verejnej správy. Čiastkovými cieľmi publikácie bolo vypracovať teoretické východiská o motivácii, pracovnej spokojnosti, výkonnosti a výkonu a ich vzájomného vzťahu; navrhnúť intervenčné opatrenia vyplývajúce z výsledkov výskumu.
Obsah práce môže prispieť čiastkovými zisteniami k pochopeniu pracovnej motivácie a výkonnosti. Publikácia je určená kruhu odborníkov, ktorí sa predmetnou problematikou zaoberajú - manažérom ľudských zdrojov a teoretikom manažmentu ľudských zdrojov.
Práca sa skladá z dvoch nosných častí. V prvej, teoretickej časti je spracovaný súčasný stav riešenej problematiky doma a v zahraničí, pričom dôraz je kladený na riešenie tejto problematiky vo verejnej správe. V tejto časti sa nachádza aj autorkin teoretický prínos v podobe všeobecného motivačno-výkonnostného modelu a aplikačný prínos v podobe návrhu intervenčných opatrení: trojúrovňového stimulačného a motivačného modelu. Informácie sú čerpané z publikácií a vedeckých štúdií renomovaných domácich a zahraničných autorov. V druhej časti je opísaná realizácia výskumu, štatistické vyhodnotenie získaných údajov pomocou metód deskriptívnej a induktívnej štatistiky, diskusia, v rámci ktorej sú komparované zistené výsledky s výsledkami iných domácich a zahraničných vedeckých štúdií.
