In this article, the author makes a comprehensive theoretical and research analysis of the issues of modern approaches and practices in the management of regional development. The main elements that are part of the approach to the management of the region are formed - principles, functions, methods, as well as other components. The importance of their accounting in the theory and practice of management is emphasized. Thus, as a result of a comprehensive analysis, a list of the main approaches to managing regions is formed - their comprehensive analysis is carried out, the main advantages and disadvantages are highlighted, and it is also emphasized that today all the presented approaches are used in practice in one way or another. As a result of the study, it was revealed that the current situation in the practice of regional management indicates the implementation of such features of the regional management system as high flexibility and mobility, and, as a result, variability of solutions. At the same time, it is emphasized that today the main drawback of the current situation is the disparity of approaches and different degrees of involvement in the management process, certain discrepancies in management theory and practice. One of the ways to solve this problem seems to us to be a largerscale development of the practice of digitalization of regional management.
