Summary/Abstract: The paper is devoted to the issue of the relationship between managerial competencies and the success or failure of restructuring in small family businesses in Poland. It presents determinants and selected characteristics of companies’ operations (the scale of their business activity and age, the market they operate in, as well as the experience and level of business knowledge of their managers) along with characteristics of crisis situations and restructuring measures undertaken. The research conducted among 73 small Polish family businesses in the construction materials distribution sector confirms the hypothesis of the existence of a significant positive correlation between managerial competencies and the effectiveness of restructuring of the surveyed companies influenced by the nature and intensity of the crisis.
