Abstract

The importance of lifelong learning and professional self-education in the modern world is beyond doubt. The search for external and internal incentives to increase people's interest in self-development is an important task for management sciences. External motivation includes the efforts of managers and HR managers to encourage employees to learn. In childhood and adolescence, parents, teachers and professors perform this function. However, it is important to understand what internal factors affect the desire for new knowledge and experience. According to numerous studies, social intelligence plays this role, as it affects the formation of positive qualities of a person from a social point of view. The purpose of this research was to verify the correlation between the level of social intelligence of an individual and his/her desire for self-development and additional training. The survey was conducted on a sample of students from a private online school that provides soft skills, financial and digital literacy training. The research results have complemented the previous survey among senior university students to form a comprehensive picture. High statistical reliability (p≤0.001***) was found for a significant relationship between social intelligence and its components and the desire to study further. The research results indicate the importance of developing a person’s social intelligence in order to stimulate professional self-education. Increasing the level of employees’ competence has a positive influence on their loyalty to the corporate culture, enhancing the personnel security of enterprises.
