The company's activities should be flexible enough so that it can quickly adapt to changes in the external environment. In this regard, the rebranding does not lose its relevance. The development of FoodTech is driven by convenience and necessity. Because of the pandemic, attitudes towards living space have changed. By FoodTech in a narrow interpretation, online food delivery services from shops and restaurants are most often meant, although in a broad sense, the entire chain of farms, food production and sales can be attributed to this format. Some enterprises began to work on the dark kitchen model (kitchen production with an order delivery service and takeaway work). The purpose of the study: to assess the impact of rebranding on the perception of consumers in the food industry in the conditions of transformation of the external environment (on the example of a catering company N). In accordance with the goal, the following tasks are set: to investigate the essence of rebranding as a competitive advantage of the organization; trends in the food industry, such as FoodTech and dark kitchen; to explore the market of cloud kitchens / \"dark kitchens\" by region; to identify situations conducive to rebranding; to develop directions for rebranding, to justify the feasibility of rebranding in the organization. Constantly there are news that one or another large company has adjusted its positioning or changed its corporate identity using restyling, repositioning, rebranding. According to the author, the differences in these types of brand updates are as follows. Restyling – partial or complete aesthetic changes in the system of visual representation of the brand's communicative attributes. Repositioning – changing the position of a product or service in the perception of consumers, giving a new image, switching to another target audience. Rebranding is a comprehensive solution to change the strategy, ideology, format. Approbation of the evaluation model of the proposed changes during rebranding was carried out on the example of the food industry enterprise – restaurant N in the Moscow region. The changes taking place in the field of activity of enterprise N were the reason for the rebranding.","PeriodicalId":269031,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Modern Competition","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130787692","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At the same time, an increase in the satisfaction of the interests of consumers and service providers is achieved by increasing the choice and intensity of electronic sales. The article presents the author’s vision of the role of the mobile application market in the field of consumer services, assesses its advantages and disadvantages. When the concept of logistics in the field of consumer services is changing, the choice of a mobile application is important for entrepreneurs, as well as building communications with consumers depending on a specific platform, applications, devices and other aspects of the digital environment. Based on a comparative and content analysis, for the first time, new forms of service logistics are highlighted, as well as the possibility of promoting services from a producer to a consumer using various types of mobile applications, which can help ensure competitive advantages in the context of business digitalization in the field of consumer services. Using the observation method, the subject of which was the PESO communication model, changes were identified in its four communication channels through the use of Internet platforms, information and digital technologies. Special transformations are recorded when using the “owner’s channel” (owned media), which is explained by the modern possibilities of digital markets. Thus, in the interaction of economic agents and consumers, sites, mobile versions of sites are used, and recently mobile applications have become the “owner’s channel”. Due to this, the possibilities of searching, ordering products, the speed of their delivery, etc. are expanding. In conclusion, we note that the competitive advantages that are formed through the use of various opportunities provided by digital markets are reflected in table 1, their list is quite extensive.","PeriodicalId":269031,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Modern Competition","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127781153","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Examples of the application of similar approaches in foreign practice are given. In the developed model, in addition to the main participants: the university, the investor and the student, for the first time an additional subject of the industry market is introduced – a recruitment agency. The substantiation and assessment of the significance of the participation of a recruitment agency in achieving maximum competitiveness in the educational activities of universities is given. The paper identifies the main areas of research on the experience of implementation of ISA in educational relations. It is emphasized that the priority areas of research on ISA relationship in education are devoted to the opportunism of the parties with asymmetry of information: the main concerns relate to the emergence of “adverse selection” and “moral hazard” effects in ISA relations. The paper deals with the main legal and ethical problems of the implementation of ISA in educational relations. The authors note that it is the transformation of ISA into a stock asset that requires additional legal regulation. The research problem is represented by the ethics of the assignment of rights under the ISA in favor of third parties (investors). If an educational organization can sell a student’s ISA to an investor, then it can receive income before the graduate gets a high-paying job. If an educational organization really adheres to the interests of the student, and guarantees the quality of the educational program, it should not withdraw from such financial obligations. If an educational organization sells its students ISA, it means to the stock market that it does not believe in their future income.","PeriodicalId":269031,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Modern Competition","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126770988","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The article substantiates the necessity of using an activity approach which implies taking into account the communication needs of students and the specifics of their future professional activities. The main difficulties faced by students and teachers in the process of mastering and teaching the discipline are analyzed. It is argued that the condition for the effective formation of communication competence in all its aspects is a practice-oriented approach to the organization of classes that can motivate students to study the course. The article discusses the practice of using interactive forms of teaching in the classroom in the discipline “Russian language and culture of speech”. The paper demonstrates the tasks developed by the authors and outlines the goals and stages of case- studies and didactic games aimed at developing communication skills. The analysis of the use of interactive forms of training was carried out, it was revealed that besides helping students to master the culture of speech they also contribute to the development of team interaction skills, help to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and real communication situations, stimulate creative and cognitive activity, and increase motivation for the study of the culture of speech. At the same time, communication skills, speech norms are not learned in isolation, but in the context of certain situations of business communication that are important for the future professional activity of an entrepreneur.

Based on the analysis of specific cases, the author shows that a domestic corporate conflict destroys a business or destabilizes a company’s activities. A corporate conflict has the ability to generate new corporate conflicts, and contains “explosive material”, the detonation of which, under certain conditions, destroys family and other personal ties. Also, a corporate conflict encourages its weak side to vigorously use the potential of administrative law against the target (base) company and its main beneficiaries, thereby expanding the springboard for “military operations”. The article substantiates the conclusions that a large- scale corporate conflict between the leading participants of the company competing for shareholding control is fraught with the emergence and development of risks for minority partners who are not directly involved in the conflict. The author believes that certain corporate conflicts in the bowels of a Russian company operating abroad may become the basis for the application of certain sanctions to it under the laws of countries that are subject to extraterritorial application. Long-term corporate antagonisms destabilize the socio-psychological atmosphere in the workforce of companies that have become their main platform, and can become the basis and cause of panic among top managers and leading specialists, thereby contributing to a decrease in the efficiency of personnel, macrosocial, including macroeconomic and “ the negative effect of corporate conflict is inevitable.","PeriodicalId":269031,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Modern Competition","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131818363","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
