Abstract: The authors analyse the changes of the managerial paradigm as a result of technological development and study the structure of the 5th and 6th technological modes. Also, the risks and socio-economic consequences of development of convergent technologies are determined. It is concluded that as a result of economy's transformation and emergence of new technologies new structural changes appear - which, in their turn, are a reason of appearance of a range of new spheres, structural interconnections between the system's elements, causing new qualities and methods of management and goals and functions of management and development, which predetermines structural shifts in development of economy at the macro-level. Improvement and expansion of the possibilities for automatisation of management based on information & communication and intellectual technologies as a result of technological development stimulate the formation and establishment of the managerial paradigm 'management for pleasure'.

Keywords: managerial paradigm; management for pleasure; technological development; convergent technologies; NBICS-technologies; technological mode; structural changes; structural shifts; pleasure economy.
