On the development of the communicative competencies of service specialists

The transition to a digital economy is an objective reality of our days. The concept of the digital economy is associated with the transformation of the value system (increasing the importance of learning and creative attitude to business) and the change in the human model (from Homo economicus to Homo faber). This predetermines the need to identify the competencies most in demand in the new society, which a person should possess. Researchers indicate different types of competencies, but everyone agrees that a prerequisite for life in a digital society is communicative competence as a person's ability to establish connections with other people and interact with them in the process of transferring intellectual capital. Developed communicative competence is of particular importance for service professionals. The development of communicative competence can be carried out in the process of self-education throughout a person's life and in the process of training in vocational education institutions. These areas are closely related to each other, therefore, the work should be carried out in a comprehensive manner – from the promotion of the values of education and the competitiveness of persons with higher professional education to the appropriate funding of educational institutions that are obliged to form communicative competence in graduates, and control of the results obtained. Control of the formation of communicative competence can be carried out through sociological research. The article presents the results of assessing the level of emotional intelligence as one of the components of communicative competence according to the method of N. Hall on the example of students of Bratsk State University of three profiles of training bachelors (humanitarian, technical and "digital" areas). The study showed the need to manage the process of developing students' emotional intelligence in the system of higher professional education. Possible management tools are the active promotion of the value of “lifelong learning” and the impact on the organizational culture in order to inculcate the necessary values in students. The article also contains a model for the development of competencies necessary for the formation of a competitive specialist and the development of the whole society.
