Abstract
The main aim of the study is to try to determine the determinants of developing the competencies of key employees in the context of threats, but also, of course, opportunities that accompany the fourth industrial revolution. The author will also evaluate actions taken by companies that took part in the research process, which are aimed at eliminating threats or taking advantage of opportunities that are brought about by these changes in the economy. In addition to a literature analysis, the author has chosen as another research method an interview with senior managers in the surveyed entities – the research was carried out in 2019 in 14 specifically selected large enterprises, which have their headquarters in Poland (a total of 77 people took part in the research). After analyzing the literature and the results of the conducted research, it turned out that in the Polish reality, despite an awareness of the opportunities and threats posed by the fourth industrial revolution (also in the area of human capital management), no preventive steps were taken or action strategies created to help them function in a diametrically changing environment.
