Summary/Abstract: The contemplation over the question of the universal process which is a part of each of us, will certainly lead us to the phenomenon of globalization. The first reason is that it is a global trend, the second reason is that it presents the identity of global interdependence, and the third reason is that it creates both an individual and a collective identity and influences the way people act and reason. To define globalization we use certain aspects of conceptualization given by A. Gidens, F. Jameson, D. Held, R. Robertson, J. Mittelman (Steger 2005: 10). Thus, globalization can be understood as a multidimensional dynamic sum of interdisciplinary processes which implicate international interdependence of human resources in social, economic, social – cultural, educational, ecological, and other spheres, determining at the same time the organizational, institutional, and personal identity and development. We see this global macro context as the context of our micro ambient in which the very theoretical, empiric, and methodological structure of the work is located.The work presents a segmental research comparative study which diagnosis different aspects of the developmental educational status of the managers in R. Macedonia. The work is theoretically and empirically based on the research study already performed in R. Slovenia (J. Starc, 2008). With the objective to see the state, tendencies, aspirations in the same field in R. Macedonia, we used a questionnaire (consisting of 25 questions, J. Starc) in 5 municipalities: Ohrid, Bitola, Prilep, Veles, and Skopje.We expected to gain a clear vision according to the research as well as to get answers to the questions such as: What is the status of the managers in companies of different fields? What direction to give the changes in education and training? What institutional problems appear? What is the social-economic surrounding? What correlation is there among the cognitive, professional, interpersonal, conceptual-strategic abilities and skills with the organizational development of the company? What is the prognosis of the development of the institution and of the one of the individual? We have presented the results for the questions 1-8 and 16 as they imply the further context of the research. All the results of this research study present the diagnosis of the state and at the same time they open perspectives towards creating efficient strategies which lead to a qualitative progress in the Macedonian business companies and in the companies of other types. In the end, the main issue here, apart from the other issues of the study, should be an indicator towards enrichment, promotion, comparison, and innovation of the current and the future practice in the Macedonian business and in the other companies in the field of application of modern strategies for development of education and training of the Macedonian managing teams. At the same time this international cooperation – as an act of the globalization interdependence in the area of scientific research, is only a proof that the globalization has positive impulses especially in comparison, innovation, and promotion of organizational practice.
