The results of recent studies of the processes of domestic enterprises prove the need to focus on decision-making in conditions of high uncertainty, institutional restrictions and interests of interested groups influencing the adoption of the strategically important decisions. The authors propose to consider the strategic decision as a result of collective choice as to means and actions that meet the principles of corporate management and the interests of the main groups – participants of corporate relations to achieve strategic goals. From such positions, the types of strategic decisions are grouped according to the following signs: purposefulness and content of the issues to make up decisions; organizational model of decision-making; completeness of knowledge and ways of their application by decision-makers. The results of a comprehensive analysis of the state and prospects of enterprise development are presented in order to study the peculiarities of strategic decision-making at the enterprises of the machine-building industry according to their allocated signs. The technology of comprehensive analysis of the strategic decisions of enterprises consists of stages and an evaluation-analytical instrumentarium – indicators and criteria, methods of evaluation, analysis and interpretation of results. The built up system of indicators corresponds to the functional spheres of the enterprise according to the criteria of financial-economic stability, production efficiency, effectiveness of marketing activities and efficiency of use of staff. The defined criteria and indicators act as rational basis for the development, comparison and choice of alternatives to development, substantiation of strategic decisions of enterprise. As a result of the carried out cluster analysis according to the computed generalized performance indicators of 18 machine-building enterprises of Kharkiv region, clusters of enterprises, development strategies and identical strategic solutions for each cluster of enterprises are allocated as follows: technical and technological development (product renewal, expansion of sale markets and search for new ones, restructuring of production capacities) and ensuring the sustainability of the financial-economic condition (through consolidation and movement of capital, saving, costs reduction, search for additional sources of income, recovery of assets).

Enterprises develop and interact with the global environment. Their activities are influenced by various factors, and timely identification of the degree of their influence allows forecasting business development and reasonably choosing development strategies. The puprose of the paper is to develop a toolkit for evaluating an enterprise in a global environment for choosing a development strategy. The ability of enterprises to simultaneously achieve advantages in the domestic and international markets characterizes the expediency of using process and system approaches, as well as the use of competitive advantages. The implementation of the elements of the structural and logical model of ensuring the stable development of enterprises involves the use of methods of comparative and structural analysis, expert assessments, taxonomic method and generalization. Achieving the desired state occurs due to changes in the state of the enterprise, the causes of which are the interaction of a set of conditions of the global environment. To predict changes in the state of enterprises, it is proposed to develop methodological support for evaluating the development of business systems and using management tools in the development and implementation of strategies. The interpretation of metastate indicators allows assessing trends in business systems and developing strategies, as well as priority areas for future development. As a result of the research, a toolkit for assessing enterprise development trends was formed, which will allow business systems to gain additional benefits in the global environment and form a development strategy. The methodology for assessing the development of enterprises can be used in any industry. The paper makes a contribution to the research of the methodology for assessing the development of enterprises that can be applied to other enterprises, not only to the Kharkiv area. In the event of a change in the influence of global environmental factors, the degree of influence should be specified. The work offers an opportunity to develop further research from the point of view of strategic management, the concept of six sigma, and production optimization. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

It is shown that one of the elements in methodological basis of enterprise strategic choice concerning its development is the model of enterprise development. There are principle aspects of modeling enterprise development (targets, principles of building, features, characteristics, assumptions and limitations of the model) considered in the article. There is content-context field for the model of enterprise development shown in the article. Such content-context field contains context, content-instrumental and target aspects. Every of such aspects specify content of the model and its characteristics. The task of modeling the enterprise development is solved by building five specific models of enterprise development that are combined into general model of development: model of ability of enterprise for development, model of choosing strategy of development, model of choosing vector of development, model of choosing basis of development and model of result of development. Functional purpose of every model is shown. There are their relationships and content considered in the article. Their place in structure of general model of enterprise development is defined. Their role in strategic choice of the enterprise concerning its development is shown.

The article provides a detailed description of the methodical support for evaluating the level of development and use of the export-import potential of industrial enterprises. The place of evaluation in the system of management of the enterprise’s export-import potential (EIPE), as well as its conceptual content have been defined. An implementation of the proposed methodical support for evaluation of the EIPE has been displayed on the example of the major industrial enterprises of the city of Kharkiv. It has been substantiated that the objectivity and effectiveness of evaluation of the level of export-import potential of industrial enterprises is methodically ensured by: the system of partial indicators allowing for regular monitoring and diagnosing tendencies in the status and the use of the EIPE; the analytical tool – i.e. cluster, factor, and canonical analyzes to identify causal relationships in the components of potential and to determine the indicators of impact; the development and use of the EIPE, as well as the evaluation procedure itself, which is recommended for implementation in accordance with the appropriate stages.

Unanticipated crises in various spheres of society are becoming a main object of attention of the mankind and civilization forming a new model of civilization – the risk society. Although this model is reflected in many works by scientists from different areas, methodological and practical justification of mechanisms for complex study of risks both at the society and enterprise level still remain relevant. The main resource for solving the problem of adaptation to life in the risk society is a person, who has both a high level of creativity and social responsibility. The unpredictability of enterprise risks can be overcome by developing professional mobility of its staff. This quality of a person is formed under the influence of a large number of external and internal factors. Among them the most difficult are the creative motivation of a person’s behavior and his/her internal mental set. In order to develop a methodological basis for formation of the staff professional mobility, it is necessary to formulate the main idea and hypothesis of a new theory, justify a list of disciplines studying certain aspects of the risk society and professional mobility, analyze paradigms of related sciences and choose ideas to form foundations of a new paradigm for creating a multidisciplinary system of concepts, principles and methods of research information support, rules of qualitative and quantitative assessment of its subject.
