the further development and use of 
labor potential do not provide the 
maintenance of sustainable socio-
economic development of the 
territory in all directions, but 
stimulate the development of only 
certain areas characterized by high 
efficiency in the medium term.
There is not integrity and 
structure due to the 
insufficient 
level 
of 
professional and personal 
qualities. At the same 
time, there is a low level 
of labor activity that 
requires 
additional 
external influence.
Influence on

development
It is innovative technologies 
donor. The formation and 
development experience of 
this type can be extended to 
other territories without 
significant changes. Within 
the existing regional socio-
economic system, it is an 
incubator of innovative 
ideas and innovations. 
It is an example of positive 
experience 
in 
innovation 
technologies 
that, 
however, 
cannot be extended due to 
specific features, as well as 
insufficient power to extrapolate 
stabilizing functions in the 
economy of other territorial 
formations.
The experience of applied 
management technologies 
cannot be extended to 
other territories due to low 
efficiency. It is the main 
consumer of other types 
experience 
due 
to 
insufficient mechanism of 
formation 
and 
development.

It is characterized by

It is inertially extended and

Qualitative characteristics of labor resources formation and development depend on the level of economic and social 
development in the region. They are determined by the sectoral, professional and qualification structure of those 
employed in public production, standard of living, development of health and social security systems, education and 
training. Thus, to a certain extent, polarity and asymmetry as two complementary categories are,

and development, impact of socio-economic trends and different degrees of state and public institutions efficiency. The 
presence of permissible asymmetry in the labor potential development has a positive impact on the functioning of 
regional socio-economic systems, as it affects the spatial distribution of labor application and localization of 
specialization zones of labor activity. 
In Russian regions, there is a real opportunity to develop the labor potential of innovative and progressive type, but 
some of its elements are presented in varying degrees in different federal districts and regions. The current employment 
state and the labor market in the regions of the Russian Federation shows quite significant differences in the 
opportunities to form and develop labor potential of innovative type. The presence of such differences is reflected both 
in the development speed of labor potential of innovative type and possibility to synchronize the processes of labor 
potential formation and development in different regions. 
Industry and territory determine the specifics of both the reproduction process, as a whole, and labor potential 
functioning, in particular industries and regions. If the reproduction process is characterized by territorial distinctness, 
the industry in the spatial sense is very fragmented, and therefore, indirectly affects the process of labor potential 
formation and use through its enterprises located in the region. The industry is represented by a set of relatively separate 
enterprises, each located and operates within a specific geographical unit. 
Analysis of strategic directions and specific forms to develop the labor potential management system should be 
correlated with the goals of regional economic policy in the labor resources, taking into account the need to develop 
basic regional clusters and the preservation of the regional specialization priority. The intensity to develop innovative 
labor potential depends on the technological development level in the region, adopted consumption patterns, flexibility, 
entrepreneurial behavior and culture, regional management quality that provides conditions for commercialization of 
innovative technologies, and effective employment.
Changes in public production affect the nature of human activity. They change not only the type of activity, but also 
the nature of its values, needs and preferences. Under the current production conditions, labor change is both natural 
need and a qualitatively new feature of modern management of the multi-structured system of labor potential. It is 
aimed at providing the necessary scientific and technical progress with employment mobility and changes in labor 
qualities. 
Thus, labor potential in the modern economy reflects the labor opportunities and people’s ambitions as read in 
conjunction with information, economic and social aspects of its use. The initial structural unit of the labor potential 
analysis is labor potential of innovative type that forms the basis for the formation of labor potential of higher structural 
levels. Its demonstration is effective innovation and entrepreneurial activity. In other words, the way to realize labor 
potential is full employment, that is, the maximum use of employee’s labor abilities in producing economic benefits. 
The strengthening of the personal principle in the human needs and values structure, and the dominant of intellectual 
and social capital among the sources of growth of the material well-being identified the most important methodological 
postulate of the theory of innovative economy: a person becomes a subject, not a factor of the economic system. 
The economic and social backgrounds for the labor potential realization are diverse and change throughout a 
person's life. Therefore, the mechanism of labor potential management can and should be continuously improved under 
the influence of innovative development in the regional economy. 
Overcoming the economic crisis consequences and further economic growth cannot be achieved without a deep 
restructuring and innovative economic development, and a positive decision of population problems in the region. 
Therefore, for the regional economic growth, it is important to determine the place of the regional system, its financial 
basis for development, sources of funds and mechanisms for their attraction. All this is possible through studies of the 
regional economy as a whole system with its set of reproduction relationships. Such a mechanism should be based on 
the theory of the regional reproduction process that is the renewing circular movement of physical, financial and labor 
resources in regions. At the same time, resources should be directed both to the development of reproduction conditions 
and functioning of the reproduction process. 
The paper reveals that the most important aspect to improve the mechanism of labor potential management is to 
focus on the effective use, systematic reproduction and continuous improvement of labor force (figure 2, Appendix B). 
We offer the following principles of the mechanism suggested to manage formation and development of regional labor 
potential on the basis of the logistic approach: 
- the principle of improving the institutional environment quality that provides development and implementation of 
measures to improve the social infrastructure of the society, corresponding to the intellectual sector of the regional 
economy, 
- the principle of cooperation between regional authorities, education and entrepreneurship that provides 
development of communication methods to create promising commercial technologies, new products (services), 
attraction of investment resources for research with the participation of all concerned parties (business, science, 
government and civil society), and improving the legal and regulatory setting in scientific, technological and innovative 
development, 
- the principle of innovative entrepreneurship and education that prioritizes the education system and problem-
oriented educational technologies aimed at teaching the skills, which are necessary for the innovative behavior 
formation, including analytical, critical and creative thinking, and contributing to the continuous self-learning, readiness 
for predictable risk and work in a highly competitive entrepreneurial environment,
