Abstract

The main goal of the paper is to justify the implementation of the innovative approach to the strategic management from the Ministry of Youth and Sport of Ukraine during preparation and realization of the reform regarding the sportsmen’s training system in the Olympic sports. Authors defined the necessity to use the innovative managerial approach to regulate the Olympians’ training system in Ukraine. It was proved that the current system could not effectively function owing to the current stable negative tendency regarding Ukrainian sportsmen’s performance results in Summer and Winter Olympic Games (in several times during 1996-2016). Considering the ongoing issues, the implementation of «Strategy to form the modern system of the Olympic training for the period up to 2020» should provide the change of the whole paradigm regarding the impacts on the sporting sphere in the leading authorities of state administration. One the hypothesis of the paper was checking the direct cause-effect relationship between economic growth and number of the Ukrainian sportsmen’s victories in the Olympic Games. The results of the regressive analysis regarding the relationship between GDP per capita growth (annual %) and medal points in Olympic disciplines for Ukraine during 1994-2016 proved the absence of the direct and statistically significant dependence between these two indicators. Within the framework of the innovative approach, authors proposed: to distribute functions on sport development management in the centre and at the local level; to introduce the practice to develop managerial decisions regarding experts’ involvement; to create new organization forms of the modern sport, such as training centres; to investigate and to use instruments of the macro pedagogical impact on the sportsmen’s training practice in districts, in Kyiv and in the national federations.

Keywords: innovative approach, strategic management, high-level sport, Olympic sport, the system of sportsmen’s training
