Summary/Abstract: The skills of key employees are crucial in improving enterprises, which was shown based on the analyses of surveys conducted. They were carried out on 66 key employees of the enterprises considered large enterprises of the Wielkopolska Voivodeship. A sample was of partial nature since the individuals that were to participate in it were selected intentionally (a key employee of the enterprise was appointed by the company chairman). However, the static analysis of the obtained material to be studied makes it possible to state the representative nature of the sample since a sample is representative if all variables that researchers are interested in are present in it. That condition has been met in the study and thus we can state that the sample is representative in a typological manner. A sample is representative if the distribution of variables in the sample corresponds to the distribution of variables in the parent population, as assessed by us. For the study conducted, the sample is representative due to the distribution of most variables. A sample is representative if its dependencies are typical of the dependencies of the whole population being studied. The dependencies shown in the study seem to be typical of the whole population; thus we may conclude that the sample is representative in its nature also in this respect [Kowal 1998]. Following the analysis of the actual status regarding the skills of key employees, it has been shown that the image of a contemporary employee who participates in the process of improving enterprises is diversified.
