FORMING AND USE OF HUMAN POTENTIAL IS IN THE PROCESS OF REFORMATION OF STATE ADMINISTRATION IN UKRAINE

Abstract

The driving force behind the development of society's productive forces is human potential, sustainable growth of the role of a person in all spheres of life, especially in production, education, science, and industry. Human potential in the system of public administration determines the ability of the state to be provided with creative, qualified personnel in the future and also affects the possibility of expanded social reproduction in its demographic, economic, social and spiritual aspects. In modern conditions, the success of the development of society is determined by the ability to generate innovation, the growth of the role of man in the reproductive processes. This brings to the fore the problem of the formation of human potential and identification of priority directions of its development. Pertinent in theoretical and practical terms is to deepen understanding of those trends, regularities, and factors that determine the state, level, and prospects of qualitative dynamics of human development in complex modern conditions, as well as scientific justification of the ways and effective mechanisms to ensure its implementation. In the dissertation, the author has proposed, firstly, to consider the concept of human development from the point of view of directly defining the essence of this economic category. Secondly, to research the concept of human development on the scientific basis of human potential, which characterizes the process of practical realization of labor potential. Besides, the mechanism of state regulation of investments in human potential, which unites the state and regional levels and includes financial and cost, structural and investment, socio-economic and organizational and management components, has been specified. Theoretical approaches to understanding the essence of professional development of managerial personnel, the purpose of which is to obtain and improve professional knowledge, acquisition and development of skills and abilities through the functioning of new teaching methods, technologies using modern information and communication resources, are certifying the need to improve the existing system of professional development of public administration in Ukraine. It has been proved that there has been a transition from the labor to the public concept of relations in the system of the civil service of Ukraine, which provides a different view on the identification of workers and employees, which was characteristic for the countries of the socialist system of law, according to the doctrine of which every person participates in the life of society regardless the sphere of application of his labor.
