Abstract

We analyse concept of mobile organization which are characterized by personal approach to employees, strategies activating intellectual capital, open and interactive attitude focusing on values like teamwork and trust. Thanks to this, organizations in motion are effective in uncertainty, are better protected against losing and in case of difficulties can faster move on to the winning cycle again. In our project the main question to answer was - if there are any relationships between possessing features of a "young mobile and organization" and its competitive advantage. Based on the theory of managing change [4] it is shown that relationships between strategy, change and managerial competences are crucial for effective change implementation. From the viewpoint of management practice, the indexes developed and presented in this paper can be used to measure youth potential as well can be applied to analyse organizational change and improve the understanding of change among managers. They can be used in organizational audits. Using the indexes, organizations can be divided into Mobile Organizations, open to the environment, that can serve as models to others, and organizations that are more closed, immobile, with low youth potential. The latter require organizational revival projects to be prepared and implemented.
