Abstract
The article examines management culture as one of the key factors for the reconstruction and sustainable development of Ukraine. It is substantiated that modern management should be viewed not merely as a set of managerial functions and methods, but as a system of values, norms, and practices that shape the quality of managerial decisions, the level of public trust, and the efficiency of organizations and state institutions. The evolution of managerial culture from administrative-controlling models to the modern paradigm of value-based leadership founded on trust, responsibility, transparency, partnership, innovation, and strategic thinking is analyzed. The role of management culture in shaping a favorable environment for the implementation of reforms, increasing the institutional capability of the state, and ensuring the effective use of reconstruction resources is demonstrated. Particular attention is paid to the necessity of forming the National Management System of Ukraine as a coherent system of managerial values, standards, terminology, and practices harmonized with international requirements. The importance of developing managerial education, digital governance, and implementing international management standards as components of modern managerial culture is substantiated. It is concluded that management culture is a strategic resource of the state and an essential prerequisite for the successful reconstruction of Ukraine, its modernization, and long-term sustainable development.
