Talent management
Developing the talents of the organization's employees is becoming an increasingly important component for the formation of the organization's competitive advantages since it is aimed at attracting and retaining high-quality specialists. The concept of talent can be described as a multifaceted phenomenon, including person's abilities acquired from birth, skills obtained throughout life, and involvement in a favorite type of occupation. The article describes the main ways to identify employees' talents, such as: "Tricky questions", "Matrix for determining talent", and analysis of employee's personal life. The author recommends paying special attention to the context and examples of difficult situations from the employee’s work activities, the made-up decisions in these conditions, as well as to analyze the most successfully mastered areas. The author also identifies key positions regarding the motivation of talent development and emphasizes that the main driving force in creative activity is not monetary remuneration or evaluation of human efforts but opportunities for employees to show an aptitude to research, learn and develop. As a result of analyzing the experience of talent management in the public service of the city of Singapore, the article highlights such methods of working with talented employees as allocating working time for training, staff rotation, participation in interstructural project teams, and mentoring. Also, the author considers the trend of introduction and use of artificial intelligence in the organization’s activities and its impact on the work of talented employees. It allows automating routine work and creating conditions for shifting the focus of employees to work creatively
Coaching as a Tool for the Development Team

Characters’ nomination according to external features in Ilf and Petrov’s “12 chairs”
The paper presents the analysis of nomination according to the external features of the characters in the novel “The Twelve Chairs” by I. Ilf and Eu. Petrov. The characters’ nomination is understood as the main part of the anthroponymic system of the novel. The system of nominations denoting a person according to different aspects is viewed as a complex of multiple levels including several subsystems or semantic unities. One of them is a unity of nominations denoting characters according to their external features. Due to their semantic meaning the units can be divided into two groups: units denoting a person according to permanent physical characteristics (such as age, sex, appearance) and units denoting a person according to situational physiological state or condition. The nominations in question serve to present a vivid description of personages and to express the esthetic impression based on the analysis of physical, physiological and anthropological qualities and states visually perceived by the author of nomination. The article will also touch upon the ways the nominations are translated into English by native speaking translators
In these (end) times: Sh. Idiatullin's Volgaic fantasy fiction
The paper discusses the development of ethnic fiction in the modern Russian literature, focusing on Shamil Idiatullin's 2020 novel “Poslednee vremja”. We show that the tendency towards switching from ethnic to regionalist agenda can be observed in the works by both Russian authors, such as Denis Osokin and Alexei Ivanov, and authors having a non-Russian ethnic identity, such as the Tatar novelists Guzel Yakhina and Shamil Idiatullin. We adopt an interdisciplinary approach, bringing together techniques from literary studies (analysis of the genre and the literary situation as well as the historical and cultural context) and linguistics (an etymological analysis of proper names, in the first place). Our commentary on various linguistic, historical and cultural aspects puts Idiatullin»s novel into the discourse of the contemporary ethnic fiction as a text that expresses the positions of both the Conquerors and the Conquered. The analysis of personal names and other words of non-Russian origin that are used in the Russian text allows to identify the fictional ethnic groups with the actual peoples of the Volga-Kama region and places the novel within a present-day context. One of the key themes of “Poslednee vremja” is language loss, and some scenes, such as the self-immolation of the pagan priest Arβuj-Kuγə̑za, make a clear reference to the contemporary history of the region. The novel»s title can be translated as both “End times” and “These times”; thus, it includes simultaneously an apocalyptic allusion and a hint to the events of the recent past
The place of microlearning in foreign language teaching methodology: historiographic study; [Микрообучение в методике преподавания иностранных языков: историографическое исследование]
Introduction. This study investigates the evolution of language teaching methodology in Russia and Western countries over time, with a focus on analysing the features of the microlearning concept as it relates to the ever-changing landscape of language education. Aim. The aim of the study is to examine the development and evolution of foreign language teaching methodology in Russia and Western countries, with a particular focus on the Russian context. By conducting a thorough review of relevant scientific and professional literature, we aim to trace the progression of methodology in general, identify prevailing trends in language teaching, and evaluate the role of microlearning in the contemporary language education framework. Researchmethods. In order to gain a comprehensive understanding of the topic, the study employed historiographic analysis, which entails a systematic review of relevant literature, data collection, and data analysis. Results. Our study has uncovered that both in Russia and Western countries, there is a rich historical background for methodological thinking in language education. The study also revealed that language teaching methodologies have evolved to include a diverse range of novel approaches based on societal demand. Our findings suggest that microlearning, which is a recent addition to language education methodologies, is gaining popularity as a teaching method, while some modern foreign language teaching models have already incorporated the use of microlearning tools and strategies. Conclusion. In spite of microlearning being gradually implemented in language education, there is still a need for theoretical and practical research to refine and develop this method for effective language learning. The findings presented in this article can be used as a basis for further development of the microlearning concept as a distinct educational approach in language instruction. © 2024 LLC Ecological Help.

Methodological aspects of building the indicator for revealing distortions in company results
Today it is extremely timely and acute to stir up academic quarters in order to develop methodological basis for assessing the degree of accounts trustworthiness in the interest of all groups of company stakeholders. The article studies theoretical and methodological aspects of assessing accounts manipulation. The author came to the conclusion about availability of shortcomings in the effective tools of assessing accounts manipulation, which are connected with determinism of indicators included in their structure and ignoring specificity of different types of company activity. The article proposes a new approach to probabilistic assessment of distortions in company accounts, which leans on mathematic-statistic models, namely typologization and multi-criteria estimation. This approach makes it feasible not only to find facts of accounts distortion but to identify their trend in the direction of overstating or understating. On the basis of this approach the integral indicator of assessing possibility of finance results’ distortion in company accounting in the direction of their overstating was built. It is connected with companies, whose principle type of activity is food production. The author draws a conclusion that more than a half of joint stock companies in the Russian Federation dealing with food production provide untruthful finance accounting (with the possibility of over 60%), which overstates finance results of its work

The article is devoted to the peculiarities of oral and written speech of persons with mental illness / disorder. The author analyzed the peculiarities of speech for the two categories of persons with mental illnesses / disorders, namely, patients with mental disorders due to the use of narcotic and psychoactive substances and patients with schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder. The author stresses that the transmission of persons with mental illness / disorder depends on the type of mental illness / disorder, the stage, duration and complexity of its course. In the article the classification of speech characteristics of people with mental disorders as a result of the use of narcotic and psychoactive substances in the 3 groups is proposed: personal-language features that arose as a result of the social experience of staying in and out of the drug addicts' environment; self-specific features that arose as a result of the organic toxic lesion of the central nervous system; disturbance of other mental processes (such as thinking, attention, imagination) that manifest themselves in the content of the speech. The author notes that the oral speech of patients with schizophrenia has the following peculiarities: deviation from the topic, sudden stops, violation of speed and pace of speech, propensity to abstract words, short stories, reduced vocabulary, limited use of conjunctions and prepositions, lack of initiative at the beginning of a conversation, Reason, "tangential answers", inconsistency and inconsistency ("verbal salad"), perseverance and paraphase, lack of grammatical consistency. For patients with schizophrenia, the peculiarity of handwriting is characteristic (bizarre, with elements that are not prescribed by the word, with deformed letters); in the letter typical selection is by stroke, stroke, underscore of individual words,
sentences or compositions, punctuation marks, etc. The speech of schizophrenics is significantly different at different stages of the disease. If patients with a diagnosis of classical and final forms of paranoid schizophrenia have all the features of the disease, then in patients with remission, there is a lack of "pathological" phenomena. This feature is due to the fact that the state of remission is characterized by a temporary relief of psychopathological symptoms. The article outlines prospects for research on the speech portrait of a person with mental illness / disorder as a component of criminalistic grouping and diagnostics
IL-4 enhances expression and function of surface IgM in CLL cells
Kinase-inhibitors targeting the B-cell receptor (BCR) are now prominent in the treatment of CLL. We have focused here on IL-4, a cytokine which protects normal and malignant B cells from apoptosis, and increases surface (s)IgM expression on murine splenic B cells. First we have demonstrated that IL-4 treatment increased sIgM expression in vitro on peripheral blood B cells obtained from healthy individuals. In CLL, IL-4 target genes are overexpressed in cells purified from the lymph nodes of patients compared to cells derived from matched blood and bone marrow samples. As for normal B cells, IL-4 increased sIgM expression on CLL cells in vitro, especially in samples expressing unmutated V-genes (U-CLL). IL-4-induced sIgM expression was associated with increased receptor signalling activity, measured by anti-IgM-induced calcium mobilisation, and with increased expression of CD79B mRNA and protein, and the "mature" glycoform of sIgM. Importantly, the ability of the BCR-associated kinase inhibitors idelalisib and ibrutinib, approved for treatment of CLL and other B-cell malignancies, to inhibit anti-IgM-induced signalling was reduced following IL-4 pre-treatment in samples from the majority of patients. In contrast to stimulatory effects on sIgM, IL-4 decreased CXCR4 and CXCR5 expression. Therefore CLL cells, particularly within the progressive U-CLL subset, may harness the ability of IL-4 to promote BCR signalling and B-cell retention within lymph nodes. Effects of IL-4 were mediated via JAK3/STAT6 and we propose a potential role for JAK inhibitors in combination with BCR-kinase inhibitors for the treatment of CLL
