EN Purpose: The main aim of the article was to present an innovative management approach involving the implementation of selected features of a turquoise organization into a militarized organization (the Armed Forces of Ukraine). Design/methodology/approach: The subject matter addressed in the article is so new and original that, in principle, there is a powerful research gap in the subject area of the author's interest. In view of the above, the content of the publication and the considerations carried out were based primarily on the author's own work, on available reports and expert opinions and on available scientific publications. Findings: The publication makes several important findings: first, it was pointed out that there are a number of common features between command and management. Second, the basic features of a turquoise organization are presented, and an implementation of these features to an inherently authoritarian organization (the armed forces) is made. Thirdly, it was found that in view of the Russian army's multiple superiority, there must be other factors that build Ukraine's superiority, i.e. precisely, for example, management, self-motivation, responsibility, i.e. precisely the characteristics of a turquoise organization. Research limitations/implications: The main research limitation is that the issue addressed is a new topic that has not yet been widely discussed in the literature. Moreover, the concept of implementing the features of a turquoise organization into an organization with an authoritarian character is the author's proposal on this issue - the validity of this approach is evidenced by the analysis of the armed conflict between Russia and Ukraine. Practical implications: The concept of implementing the features of a turquoise organization into a more autocratic organization is a proposal for managers and commanders to make changes to operate more efficiently. Originality/value: The topic addressed is new and original, not previously addressed. The article presents an original concept of using the characteristics of a turquoise organization in the process of managing organizations, even those of an authoritarian nature. The added value, after the implementation of the features and assumptions of the turquoise organization, will be, among other things, an increase in the efficiency of the organization, the asset of which will be primarily modern management of it focused on creativity and involvement of staff.
