Assessment of the Balance of Aspects of the Socio-Ecological and Economic Efficiency of the Organization Activity Based on the Dynamic Standard Method by K. S. Hruznevich

“…As a result of writing the paper, the author’s definitions of the studied categories were developed, a system of indicators for certain aspects of the effectiveness of the organization activity was formed, priorities in growth rates were determined and the normative ranks of the selected indicators were established. Based on the data of a specific organization, a comparison was made between the normative and actual modes of functioning based on the calculation of the Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient and Kendall’s rank correlation coefficient. …”
