Summary/Abstract: The main purpose of this article is to specify the increasing role of managers in modern organisations. One of the symptoms of the increasing role of Polish managers is – as the authors presume – a process of combining some ownership and managerial functions. Therefore, the authors propose a hypothesis that in some circumstances managerial and ownership roles in modern organisations are united. The authors named the process “a new symbiosis”. The new symbiosis result from a couple of reasons. For example, managers – not being owners - more and more frequently take strategic decisions. They are also remunerated by means of long term incentive plans, especially including share in profits and ownership. They are also employed on the basis of civil law, not on Labour Code. As a result, in some cases functions of managers’ and owners’ combine and a process of a new symbiosis can be observed.
