Abstract

The paper deals with the Romanian management training in the UE environment. It is based on the 1986 interviews achieved in 2011 with management teachers, trainers, consultants, specialists and with managers from the companies and administration. They represent a representative sample for Romania. The study is divided in four parts. In the first part it is presented the evaluation of the components sample regarding the level of the Romanian management comparative with EU management, in general and at the level of the main providers of the management training. The following paragraph deals with the intensity of the managerial and entrepreneurial training in the SME’s field. The third part contains the causal analysis of the main strengths and weaknesses of the management training in Romania, in general and differentiated for university and for other training organizations. In the fourth part we present five strategic recommendations focused on the improvement of the management training in Romania. They are founded on the analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of the Romanian management training and on the Europe 2020 Strategy and Small Business Act. Finally we formulate some conclusions and recommendations.
