1. Statistically significant differences in AI support levels for project management between SMEs and large enterprisesPolona Tominc, Dijana Oreški, Vesna Čančer, Maja Rožman, 2024, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: Background: This article delves into an in-depth analysis of the statistically significant differences in AI support levels for project management between SMEs and large enterprises. The research was conducted based on a comprehensive survey encompassing a sample of 473 SMEs and large Slovenian enterprises.
Methods: To validate the observed differences, statistical analysis, specifically the Mann–Whitney U test, was employed.
Results: The results confirm the presence of statistically significant differences between SMEs and large enterprises across multiple dimensions of AI support in project management. Large enterprises exhibit on average a higher level of AI adoption across all five AI utilization dimensions. Specifically, large enterprises scored significantly higher (p < 0.05) in AI adopting strategies and in adopting AI technologies for project tasks and team creation. This study’s findings also underscored the significant differences (p < 0.05) between SMEs and large enterprises in their adoption and utilization of AI technologies for project management purposes. While large enterprises scored above 4 for several dimensions, with the highest average score assessed (mean value 4.46 on 1 to 5 scale) for the usage of predictive Analytics Tools to improve the work on the project, SMEs’ average levels, on the other hand, were all below 4. SMEs in particular may lag in incorporating AI into various project activities due to several factors such as resource constraints, limited access to AI expertise, or risk aversion.
Conclusions: The results underscore the need for targeted strategies to enhance AI adoption in SMEs and leverage its benefits for successful project implementation and strengthen the company’s competitiveness.

2. Upravljanje talentov v digitalni dobiMarija Jovičić, 2025, magistrsko delo Opis: Raziskava obravnava digitalizacijo v kontekstu upravljanja talentov in organizacijskega razvoja v digitalni dobi. V današnjem hitrem in dinamičnem poslovnem okolju digitalizacija oblikuje vse vidike poslovanja organizacij, vključno z menedžmentom človeških virov. V tem kontekstu postaja upravljanje talentov vse pomembnejši proces za dosego in ohranjanje konkurenčne prednosti organizacij. Digitalna orodja, kot so umetna inteligenca in sistemi za podporo odločanju, izboljšujejo preglednosti in omogočajo etično usmerjene odločitve, kar pripomore k večji natančnosti in preglednosti v organizacijskih procesih. Hkrati digitalizacija prinaša izzive, kot so povečana konkurenca pri pridobivanju talentov ter izzivi pri usklajevanju poklicnega in zasebnega življenja, kar zahteva uvedbo politik, kot je pravica do odklopa, da bi preprečili izgorelost zaposlenih. Poleg tega digitalna orodja pozitivno vplivajo na razvoj kompetenc, karierni napredek in izboljšanje zadrževanja talentov. Vendar digitalizacija prinaša tudi izzive, kot so manjša osebna interakcija in večja fluktuacija zaposlenih. Digitalizacija torej preoblikuje prakse upravljanja talentov, vendar zahteva premišljeno strategijo za obvladovanje negativnih vplivov, kot so izgorelost in težave pri usklajevanju osebnega in poklicnega življenja. Uspešna implementacija digitalnih orodij v organizacijah je mogoča le, če se upoštevajo izzivi ter oblikujejo ustrezne strategije, ki omogočajo polno izkoriščanje prednosti digitalne preobrazbe. Tako lahko organizacije v celoti izkoristijo potencial digitalnih orodij za razvoj in upravljanje talentov v dinamičnem poslovnem okolju.
Ključne besede: digitalizacija, upravljanje talentov, osebna blagovna znamka, nenehno učenje, etika v HR, ravnovesje med poklicnim in zasebnim življenjem.

3. A comparative study using two SEM techniques on different samples sizes for determining factors of older employeeʹs motivation and satisfactionMaja Rožman, Polona Tominc, Borut Milfelner, 2020, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: The purpose of this article is to present the relationships among older employee stress, motivation, satisfaction, and relationships in the workplace using two different approaches and different sample sizes. Research was implemented on an initial sample of 1013 older employees. In the next step, six smaller samples were calculated using the random selection of cases, namely samples with 25, 50, 100, 250, 400, and 500 older employees. This way the possible impact of sample size on relationships between latent variables using the covariance-based structural equation modeling (CB-SEM) and the partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) methods was assessed. The results on the larger samples have proved to be quite robust since they were confirmed with both approaches. They indicate that stress has a strong and negative impact on employee relationships and also a negative impact on employee satisfaction. Furthermore, employee relationships have a strong and positive impact on satisfaction and a positive impact on employee motivation. In addition, satisfaction has a strong and positive impact on employee motivation. The present paper helps readers to better understand the difference between the CB-SEM and the PLS-SEM methods. Researchers should be encouraged to use both techniques, even though CB-SEM methods have had a long tradition in management and marketing research since both fields heavily rely on psychometric measurement. From the organizational point of view, conclusions highlight the importance of the impact the variables of older employee stress, motivation, satisfaction and employee relations have on each other in the workplace.

8. Building organisational sustainability during the COVID-19 pandemic with an inspiring work environmentMaja Rožman, Anita Radman Peša, Mladen Rajko, Tjaša Štrukelj, 2021, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: This article aims to analyse significant differences in four constructs: occupational stress, job satisfaction, work engagement, and work productivity among employees before and after the COVID-19 pandemic. The purpose of the paper is to develop a multidimensional model with these four constructs and analyse the differences in the strength of their effects on the model across two intersectional times: before the COVID-19 pandemic and during the COVID-19 pandemic. The research was implemented on a sample of 885 employees in Slovenian organisations. During COVID-19, Slovenia had one of the strictest lockdowns. Based on the research, we can confirm significant differences in the four analysed constructs among employees before COVID-19 and during COVID-19. Based on the results, we can confirm that occupational stress had a more negative effect on job satisfaction and work engagement during COVID-19 than before prior to it. Our research and conclusions highlight the measures with which organisations can reduce the problem of occupational stress and with which organisations can increase job satisfaction, work engagement and work productivity among employees during COVID-19. Based on this, organisations may be able to build a more supportive work environment during, and after, COVID-19.

9. Vpliv internega marketinga na delovno izgorelost zaposlenih, delovno zavzetost zaposlenih in pohvale na delovnem mestu v slovenskih podjetjihAna Repnik, 2024, magistrsko delo Opis: Interni marketing postaja eden izmed ključnih marketinških strategij podjetij. Podjetja z vlaganjem v svoje zaposlene na način, da usposabljajo in razvijajo njihove spretnosti ter sposobnosti, vplivajo na to, da so njihovi zaposleni motivirani za dobro opravljanje svojega dela. Tako torej interni marketing obravnava svoje zaposlene kot interne odjemalce, s katerimi poskuša podjetje vzpostaviti proces menjave in na ta način vplivati na zadovoljstvo svojih zaposlenih. V preteklosti in še danes raziskovalci dajejo vse večji poudarek prav tako na delovno izgorelost zaposlenih, ki se med njimi vse bolj pojavlja, zaradi prevelikega stresa ter delovnih obremenitev na delovnem mestu. V zvezi s tem sta povezani tudi delovna zavzetost zaposlenih in pohvale na delovnem mestu, ki na drugi strani pozitivno vplivajo na produktivnost ter pozitivne odnose.
Magistrsko delo je sestavljeno iz teoretičnega in empiričnega dela. V teoretičnem delu smo opredelili interni marketing, zapisali razsežnosti oz. dimenzije internega marketinga in vpliv internega marketinga na kakovost storitev. Poleg tega smo opredelili delovno izgorelost zaposlenih, proučili dejavnike, ki vplivajo na delovno izgorelost, simptome in posledice delovne izgorelosti ter preprečevanje in odpravljanje delovne izgorelosti. Prav tako smo opredelili delovno zavzetost zaposlenih, zapisali posledice in razsežnosti delovne zavzetosti zaposlenih, dejavnike, ki vplivajo na delovno zavzetost zaposlenih ter proučili krepitev delovne zavzetosti zaposlenih. Kot zadnje smo še opredelili pohvale na delovnem mestu in proučili izražanje pohval na delovnem mestu.
V empiričnem delu smo raziskovali, ali so zaposleni v Slovenskih podjetjih delovno izgoreli in delovno zavzeti. Poleg tega smo raziskovali, ali interni marketing vpliva na delovno izgorelost zaposlenih, delovno zavzetost zaposlenih in na pohvale na delovnem mestu. Vse pridobljene podatke smo pridobili s pomočjo anketnega vprašalnika, ki je bil objavljen na socialnem omrežju Facebook, poleg tega pa smo spletni naslov anketnega vprašalnika poslali naključno izbranim anketirancem.
Rezultati kažejo, da zaposleni v slovenskih podjetjih niso delovno izgoreli. Poleg tega smo ugotovili, da so zaposleni v slovenskih podjetjih delovno zavzeti, saj smo zastavljeno hipotezo delno potrdili. Ugotavljamo še, da interni marketing delno vpliva na delovno izgorelost zaposlenih, delovno zavzetost zaposlenih in na pohvale na delovnem mestu, saj smo vse tri hipoteze delno potrdili.
Ključne besede: interni marketing, delovna izgorelost zaposlenih, delovna zavzetost zaposlenih, pohvale na delovnem mestu
