Abstract. The development of effective and efficient management methods in a transitional period in the field of forestry, as in other sectors of public life, becomes of paramount importance. The study of the historical experience of Count Casimir Sheptytsky as an organizer of public life is very relevant today and will contribute to raising the level of public awareness about the historical past of the region. In the proposed exploration, the author aims to find out the activities of the Galician Forestry Society and the role of Casimir Sheptytsky in it. The object of the research is the activity of the Galician Forestry Society in the period of 1905-1911, and the subject is the work of Count Casimir Sheptytsky. The methodological basis of the research is the principle of historicism in conjunction with the functional method, which made it possible to determine the influence of Casimir Sheptytsky on the public relations of Galicia.

The article is devoted to the 150th anniversary of the birth of a great public, political, church figure in Galicia, Count Casimir Sheptytsky. He is more known for his work as a spiritual person and organizer of church life. The study of his active secular period of life will allow to understand his motivation more deeply before the transition to the clergy, the influence of religious principles on secular professional activity, as well as the relationship with colleagues in everyday life. Earlier in the history of the Galician forests, Count Casimir Sheptytsky entered not only as a zealous defender of the forest, but also as an administrator of the Galician Forestry Society. The work deals with the activities of Casimir Sheptytsky in the Galician Forestry Society from 1905 to 1911. It is described his career — from a member of the company to the head of the company. The article includes Casimir Sheptytsky’s speeches that made it possible to highlight his personality. Chronologically, his chairmanship at the meetings of the Galician Forest Society was presented. His participation as a delegate of the Galician Forestry Society in other representative and state bodies of Galicia and the Austrian Empire is described. The activity of Casimir in other societies is investigated for the purpose of solving forest industry affairs.
