Abstract: In the study, the problem of management in modern science and practice is analyzed. Among the most pressing challenges of the modern factors of globalization are considered management, growth difficulties hyper-complexity and dynamism of social processes. The complexity, dynamism and hyper-complexity are considered as factors stimulating the development of modern management science and practice. The study explains the crisis of modern science and management facing the challenges of complexity and dynamism and the necessity to move from the dominant mechanical methods to the new methodology, the ability to “catch” and control the processes of the complexity and dynamism in society. As such adequate scientific methodology in management, the ability to “capture” the challenges of complexity and dynamism of a synergistic approach grounded in social science. Synergetic is regarded as a new scientific methodology, able to “catch” the complexity and dynamism and to manage them. As an example of the heuristic and practical possibilities of synergy we can find the problem of generations (change of social status) in modern society. The study explore the synergetic ability to “capture” the processes of social chaos in intergenerational relations and adequately manage them to minimize the risks of further sustainable development of society. In connection with the coming era of complexity and dynamism, the researcher examine the need for changes in attitudes to modern education, particularly in the training of new leaders for the production, business and politics, to be able to understand, to investigate and regulate the process complexity and dynamism in society in order to its sustainable development.
