Abstract

This chapter views the problems of realization of innovational potential of employees of industrial and scientific and technical sphere. Methodological basis for the research includes the works of foreign scientists in which two models of innovational behavior of employees are presented. The rational model is based on active participation of employees in innovational changes, which gives material profit to employee and company. The symbolic model of innovational development emphasizes the value of public recognition as a stimulus of innovational behavior.

The symbolic model of innovational behavior is applicable to modern Russian conditions. The authors pay attention to educational status as a factor of formation of innovational potential of employees of industrial and scientific and technical spheres. Based on the results of empirical research, analysis of influence of educational characteristics of respondents on the attitude to profession, ideas on prestigious employment, and participation in innovations is conducted.

The work was performed within the Project No. 383: “Employees of industrial and scientific and technical spheres in the conditions of monotown (by the example of sociological analysis of Tolyatti)”.
