This article examines the evolution of views on the scientific organization of labor and trends in the development of modern management ontologies and manager values in modern socio-economic conditions. This paper examines the achievements of Soviet theorists and practitioners of the first period, namely A.K. Gastev, P.M. Kerzhentsev, A.A. Bogdanov, who were the forerunners of modern automation and digitalization of production. The paper shows that among foreign management theorists such as F. Taylor, M. Weber, H. Fayol, H. Gant, H. Ford, P. Drucker and others, great attention was also paid to the scientific organization of work. In particular, Bogdanov’s developments have found practical application in the West in the development of network planning methods. The paper shows that the ideas of A.K. Gastev, P.M. Kerzhentsev, A.A. Bogdanov are still relevant in many ways, for example, on standardization of products, on working conditions, on the rational use of employee and supervisor time. The paper shows that it is the area related to the use of analytical objects that is a promising area of research for modern management. Artificial subjectivity will be the subject of consideration by management schools of the future. It is shown that attention in management theory will shift towards discussing management ontologies and manager values. The relations concern both management itself and managed objects – enterprises, branches of the national economy, the interrelation of industries within the country, the interrelation of industry and the spheres of education, culture, and economics. Moreover, the methods of developing ontologies will not be empirical, but will be deduced theoretically. This is what will inevitably determine a qualitative leap in management theory, and then in the practice of Russian management.

Based on elaborated concept of reviving the culture of industrial consumption of resources, an attempt is made to prove the existence of tectoeconomics resulting from tectology — a universal organizational science. Tectoeconomics is understood as the art of conducting business as well as other creative activities based on selection and implementation of decisions to streamline the processes of creating and consuming material and spiritual goods. It is shown that the possibilities for socioeconomic growth should be sought in cultural origins. On the basis of perceptions on tectoeconomics, the author has identified one of the main structural and organizational shortcomings of domestic economy, which does not contain in the trade sphere a specific industrial branch in the form of a system of culture-forming service material centers, eliminating the own procurement production of finished products producers and contributing to intensive growth of the middle class. The article is commemorating the 100th anniversary of publishing the main work of the national thinker, encyclopedic scientist Alexander A. Bogdanov “Tectology. General organizational science”. In the Belarusian magazine OnAir No. 7 (104) 2018, was published an article by N.V. Kostyukovich “Two lives of Alexander Bogdanov”
