The relevance of the topic is determined by the need to adapt management processes to new challenges of digital transformation, the dynamics of the social environment, and the demand for effective training of future specialists. The aim of the study was to identify leading acmeological trends that ensure the professional development of an individual in contemporary society. The article examined the main directions of development of modern management acmeology as an interdisciplinary field that combines knowledge from psychology, pedagogy, and management sciences. The research employed methods of comparative analysis of scientific sources, systematisation of modern approaches, and content analysis of relevant publications. The research results allowed for the identification of four main directions of modern management acmeology: digital transformation of management practices; professional growth through acmeological approaches in education; integration of psychological and pedagogical approaches in the context of professional self-realisation; and the acmeological approach in the secondary education system. Each direction covered specific problem areas: from the formation of acmeological competencies in future educators and managers to the study of the influence of organisational culture on individual self-realisation. Special attention was paid to the implementation of acmeological technologies in secondary and higher education, the development of internal motivation, reflection, self-organisation, and responsibility, which were the main criteria for professional development. The practical value of the work lies in formulating recommendations based on the analysis of the four identified main directions of development of modern management acmeology, which allowed for the effective realisation of the potential of the acmeological approach in the educational environment. The research results can be used to improve educational programmes, develop innovative methods for training a new generation of leaders, and foster management thinking that meets the challenges of the 21st century
