The beginning of Credit Union of Agricultural Cooperatives is linked to Malopolska Region, where agricultural cooperative movement initialized by Stefan Stefczyk in 1899 was captured into concise legal frames called „The Bureau of Patronage over Companies of Savings and Loans at the State Department in Lwow”. That credit institution became seed of Credit Union of Agricultural Cooperatives in Lwow established in 1909. State Credit Union was an outpost of particularly self-governing, state character contributing towards the development of agricultural cooperatives. Soon after regaining independence by Poland after World War I, The Bureau of Patronage over Agricultural Companies in Lwow was reorganized into Credit Union of Agricultural Cooperatives in Warsaw with extended area of operation onto the entire territory of the Republic of Poland. During the Nazi occupation Credit Union of Agricultural Cooperatives still remained the financial centre for agricultural cooperatives. Unfortunately, after liberation from the German occupation Credit Union of Agricultural Cooperatives was forced to cease its activity.

The analysis of the materials show that the CIA prisons, where the members of Al-Kaida were kept and interrogated, were founded in Poland in 2002 when the country was governed by SLD. The PiS politicians who were in the following government knew about the fact but did not want to reveal it to the public. The party of PO which has been governing the country since 2007 has not solved the problem yet. European Court Of Human Rights held in its verdict of 24 July 2014 that there had been the CIA prisons in our country. According to that verdict Poland violated the European Convention on Human Rights and its ban on torture. Poland has not solved the problem, prolonging the investigation 15 times. It is extended until 11 April 2015. On 23 October 2014 our country appealed to European Court of Human Rights to hear the case again.

Z dziejów parafii unickiej pw. Wniebowstąpienia Najświętszej Marii Panny w zimnie w świetle osiemnastowiecznych wizytacji kościelnych

Zimno, the seat of the Uniate parish of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, dates back to 1388. Originally, this tiny country village belonged to the Duchy of Belz, which was incorporated into the administrative structure of Poland as the Belz Voivodeship in 1462. After the first partition of Polish – Lithuanian Commonwealth, this land was annexed by the Habsburg Empire, then it became part of the Duchy of Warsaw and following the joint resolutions of the Congress of Vienna it was given to Russia.

Such location meant that this land was the area of influences of two dioceses of Chelm, both Eastern Orthodox and Latin, therefore, its dwellers were both Eastern Orthodox (then Uniates) and Roman Catholic as well. The parish established here was an Eastern Orthodox parish, which, after the Union of Brest, became a Uniate parish. The parish constituted a one-village community which administratively belonged to the Deanery of Tyszowce. It functioned this way until the end of the eighteenth century, i.e. the first partition, when this land was annexed by the Habsburg Austria. Due to the Josephine administrative reform imposed by the Habsburg Austria, the parish in Zimno was liquidated and incorporated into the St. Michael the Archangel Uniate parish in Zerniki, while the church in Zimno was demoted to the rank of a branch church. The parish functioned that way until the liquidation of the Union of Brest.

A hybrid is a mixture of two different things, resulting in something that has a little bit of both. Like the rare zeedonk, a hybrid of a donkey and a zebra. Hybrid refers to many areas of life biology, electrical power generation, electronics, film, games and sport, music, literature, vehicles. Other examples of the use of hybrids

  • Hybrid security, a type of economic instrument,
  • Hybrid word, a word derived from more than one language,
  • Hybrid market, a system allowing stock trades to be completed either electronically or manually,
  • Hybrid organization, an organization that mixes elements of various sectors of society

The world around us is a hybrid and it is no longer just a state of transition. This also applies to Cloud Computing. Hybrid cloud is a composition of two or more clouds (private, community or public) that remain distinct entities but are bound together, offering the benefits of multiple deployment models. Business requires a flexible IT infrastructure that can scale on demand. A hybrid cloud gives organizations the best of both worlds, so company can take advantage of external resources when it makes sense from business perspective. Varied use cases for hybrid cloud composition exist. For example, an organization may store sensitive client data in house on a private cloud application, but interconnect that application to a business intelligence application provided on a public cloud as a software service. This example of hybrid cloud extends the capabilities of the enterprise to deliver a specific business service through the addition of externally available public cloud services. Hybrid cloud adoption depends on a number of factors such as data security and compliance requirements, level of control needed over data, and the applications an organization uses. Another example of hybrid cloud is one where IT organizations use public cloud computing resources to meet temporary capacity needs that cannot be met by the private cloud. This capability enables hybrid clouds to employ cloud bursting for scaling across clouds. Cloud bursting is an application deployment model in which an application runs in a private cloud or data center and „bursts” to a public cloud when the demand for computing capacity increases.

Creating a innovating social-economic environment is a key to to helping the development of society based on knowledge. The realisation of the innovation policy takes place at the local government level. The main strategy of development is created at the central level but it’s the local government is responsible for implementing that strategy. There can be observed a wrong understanding of innovation. Innovation is not only connected with new technologies and so it is more important now then ever to build a social attitude of innovation promotion.

This paper aims to briefly describe the two types of strategies (strategic orientations), namely: play-to-win (PTW) and play-not-to-lose (PNTL) as well as to propose some tools for their operationalization within the framework of public management by local governments at county level. The PTW strategies are related to offensive approaches and benefiting from emerging opportunities – they can be defined as “results oriented”. The PNTL, are defensive, based on the current (or even historical) standing of an organization – they can be defined as “survival oriented”. Some examples of possible applications and management tools of the PTW vs. PNTL thinking to the situation of local governments will are described. These tools may be helpful in identifying the specific approach in strategic thinking of local governments. The analysis of the two approaches is of particular importance for the measurement of intellectual capital at county level. The PTW vs. PNTL implies the type of investment decisions and budgetary spending policies as well as attitudes and behaviours promoted locally.

This article refers to the issues of investment project management on the Polish construction market. It describes the typical projects’ features, definitions, refers to the parameters, methodologies and management standards, makes comparison between themselves (e.g. PMBoK and PRINCE2), describes the life cycle of the work and more specifically indicates its different phases and their importance for the successful projects’ implementation, refers to the widely understood literature. Also, an overview of the legislation governing the construction investment projects can be found in the article.

Subsequently, taking the literature as a reference basis and author’s experience gathered during the implementation of various investment projects (in his thirty years of his professional experience), and in particular on the basis of the analysis of four case studies addressing large investment projects that were conducted in the residential housing market in Warsaw agglomeration, the proprietary proces development model was described and discussed in the article. In this context, specific consideration was given to the aspects related to management flexibility.

The model consisting of 16 stages (grouped in 8 process development phases) was thoroughly described, with a particular focus on its strengths. In this respect and with reference to the management of investment projects there are also described process groups, recognized as integral elements of the management areas indicated by the PMBoK and PRINCE2 (including management of different areas such as integration, scope, time, costs, quality etc.) As a complement to those process groups, several additional management areas (which according to the author were omitted in other methodologies and standards- based management) were proposed and described (including value management or graphical elements management among others).

Last but not least, the issue of flexible and innovative investment management was illustrated in practice by the case of the construction of the complex of residential estates Warszawa-Bemowo.

In recent years, these is a significant increase in people taking up the profession of real estate agent in Poland due to the deregulatory actions legislator and as a consequence of the abolition of the license required to perform this profession in the past. Despite the increase in quantity, qualitatively Polish market remains, however, largely still behind the markets of the West, especially the United States of America. It should be noted that the development of a professional broker takes place through lifelong learning and gaining experience. As a result, the person becomes more effective in realizing more and more transactions. This efficiency is also reflected in the increase in the profitability of the business. These effects are determined by the relevant marketing of a real estate agency, which must be implemented and coordinated by a professional having dualistic skills – both theoretical and practical, knowledge of marketing tools, as well as in-depth knowledge of the local real estate market. Nowadays, new trends in the approach to marketing are created, there are observable changes in the attitudes of customers and the evolution of the enterprise environment. Without a doubt, the world moves towards individualized marketing which is derived from the concept of precision marketing. The new strategic concept aims at the maximum satisfaction of each customer through the customization of products. Individualized approach is the concept of reaching out to a person as a client and not to the mass of unidentifiable people. The consequence of the new order of relationship is the disappearance of the concept of clear market segmentation. The increasing diversification of demand is a consequence of consumer behavior. The heterogeneity of needs and preferences, as well as high consumer awareness, results in deepening of the individualized approach. Polish real estate market agency should be modeled on these from the USA where computer marketing systems determine high professionalism and effectiveness of real estate agencies. An important element of modernization in this aspect is the approach to innovation. Expenditure on any kind of improvement in the functioning of real estate should not be treated as an expense but as an investment which definitely strengthens the competitive position in the market and brings multiplied benefits in the future.
