The Model and Practices of Human Potential Development
https://doi.org/10.31992/0869-3617-2024-33-12-50-79
Abstract
The article presents the model and practices of human potential development. Human potential is considered in three contexts: the context of development, emerging markets (innovation and creative industries, entrepreneurship, etc.); the context of human “mightiness”, his or her ability to act in conditions of uncertainty, to create something new and unexpected; and the context of searching for the human in human potential, emphasizing the value-semantic aspects of human potential and cultural practices of its development. By human potential is meant the subject’s capabilities in cooperation with Significant Others to open prospects for self-development and self-realization in the described contexts. The developed model is based on the concept of “productive action”, supplemented by reflective practices of constructing opportunities and one’s own path, developing the ability to be a cultural, social, and economic subject. The development of human potential is proposed to be carried out along three vectors: “working with the ideal” (searching for one’s own meanings and developing reflection), “self-positioning in society” (social positions, connections, communities, reputation, career position, occupation, and types of activity), and “mightiness” (building the ability to “overcome one’s inability”, i.e., the ability to act on the frontier). The model allows researching, describing, and constructing practices of human potential development. The proposed model of practice and the structure of its description are presented, as well as examples of significant practices for the purposes of the study from the field of higher, secondary, and additional education.
