Modeling the Leadership Potential of a Specialist

Abstract

Support as a field of practical activity of leading specialists is still not very clearly defined and, moreover, there is a widespread opinion that such a field does not exist at all, that the task of psychologists is not to support the development of activity systems, but only to provide psychological support for the management process. By the way, the development of modern management psychology as a field at the intersection of psychology and management revealed gaps and contradictions in standard models of the development of a specialist's personality. The latter in particular explains the backwardness of some countries in this regard. Studies of the consequences of limited rationality, social preferences, and the lack of self-control of the development situation have shown that human traits systematically affect management decisions, as well as performance results. In the post-industrial era, it is necessary to reveal the influence of the psychological (in particular, leadership) potential of a modern specialist ("passionate spirit") on national dignity. A leader is a person who wants not only to find himself in life, but also to realize himself in it: fully, fully exhausting his inner potential. A question arises regarding the psychological support of the development of socio-technical systems of activity, and above all in the project management system. The scientific basis of professional management psychology is based on the developed characteristics and patterns. A practical warehouse is used by a number of diagnostic, expert and other workers who are able to achieve the necessary efficiency of activity.
