Summary: | In May 2001 European Commision adopted sustainable development strategy focused on long-term politics and actions on various fields including economic, social and ecological; previously mentioned adopted new concepts linked with sustainable development present new challenges for Slovenian companies. Managers are key factor which can have impact on sustainable development, because they are familiar with the natural state of affairs in bussiness due to possesing right informations and secondly they are fully responsible for the leadership. Greatest power in companies is possed by its leading managers, who choose what and how to work. Consequently managers are with their leadership and behavior fundamental point of sustainable development. The purpose of this research is to establish the actual role and performance of managers in planning sustainable development and environmental management policy, strategy and organizational culture in Slovenian companies. Survey was conducted in 120 Slovenian enterprises. The results of this research provide the guidelines and platform or principles for further discussion and research in the field of sustainable development and environmental management policy, strategy and organizational culture. We developed a proposal for improvements to the management to assist in improving environmental management and quality management in Slovenian companies. Maja 2001 je Evropska komisija sprejela Strategijo trajnostnega razvoja, v kateri predstavlja dolgoročno politiko in ukrepe na ekonomskem, socialnem in ekološko trajnostnem področju, kar predstavlja za slovenska podjetja nove izzive. Ključni dejavnik, ki lahko vpliva na trajnostni razvoj so vršni managerji, ki imajo po našem mnenju največ informacij o poslovanju in so odgovorni za voditeljstvo. Imajo največjo moč v podjetjih katera vodijo, saj sami izbirajo kaj in kako delat. To pa posledično pomeni, da lahko z lastnim načinom voditeljstva in obnašanjem največ prispevajo k trajnostnemu razvoju. Namen naše raziskave je bilo ugotoviti, kakšna je dejanska vloga ravnateljev pri načrtovanju politike, strategije in organizacijske kulture trajnostnega razvoja in ravnanja z okoljem v slovenskih podjetji. Anketirali smo 120 zaposlenih sodelavcev v različnih naključno izbranih slovenskih podjetjih. Izhodišče, da so bistveno povezani politika, strategija, organizacijska kultura trajnostnega razvoja in ravnanje z okoljem podjetja, naj bi prispevala nova spoznanja k raziskovalni problematiki na področju trajnostnega razvoja. Izdelali smo predlog izboljšav, ki naj bi bil v pomoč managementu pri izboljšanju ravnanja z okoljem in kakovosti poslovanja v slovenskih podjetjih.
