The analysis showed that PA factor is judged better by women than by men; respondents differ significantly by level of education in the case of YA factor and by age in the case of YA and YB factors and by work experience in the case of YA factor. Workers differ statistically significantly by sex in evaluation of factor YA. Map of superiors brand was created in order to determine the structure of unconditional behavior and of behaviors that support managers. This analysis showed high efficiency of decision managers and their large commitment (simultaneous dominance of managing behavior and support behavior). Personnel BCG matrix was created based on the traditional BCG matrix with the names used normally in the matrix but related to employees.
