PERSONNEL DEFICIT AS A DETERRENT TO TERRITORIAL DEVELOPMENT: THEORETICAL AND METHODOLOGICAL APPROACHES TO IDENTIFICATION AND SYSTEMATIZATION

Abstract

In the course of the study, the author revealed that the personnel deficit in modern Russia is acquiring a stable structural character, acting as a deterrent to the development of territorial economic entities. This problem is especially acute in the new regions of the Russian Federation, where an increased vulnerability of labor markets is recorded, expressed in a high level of deficit, asymmetry of income and lower wages compared to neighboring regions. The main approaches to the interpretation of uncertainty in relation to the management of the personnel factor are systematized. A discrepancy has been established between the predictive capabilities of traditional macroeconomic models and the real dynamics of personnel imbalances in conditions of geopolitical and sanctions uncertainty. This discrepancy is essential for the development of methodological tools for overcoming it. It has been proven that modern consulting performs a constructive and methodological function, ensuring the transition from reactive to proactive management of personnel shortages at the territorial level. The classification of consulting tools by three functional blocks proposed by the author can be used in the practice of regional and municipal management, as well as in the development of personnel strategies of enterprises.
