"<< Background >>The description of people's abilities is a complex topic that varies greatly depending on the approach taken. Different approaches have distinct starting points, criteria, and considerations that guide their assessment of people's abilities. Among the various approaches, a commonly utilized distinction is between ""hard"" and ""soft"" skills, which respectively refer to technical expertise and behavioral competencies.However, beyond the assessment of hard and soft skills, there is a broader category of potentials that are inherent in individuals and the larger systems in which they operate. These are referred to as natural potentials, and they are characterized by their permanence and subtle presence. The diagnosis of natural potentials can help individuals identify areas of their personality that have the potential for further development, leading to personal growth and increased effectiveness in various domains.In conclusion, the assessment of natural potentials is a valuable tool for enhancing personal and professional development. By utilizing a nuanced approach that takes into account a range of factors, individuals can identify areas of potential and work towards realizing this potential, leading to increased effectiveness.<< Objectives >>The project aimed to develop an approach to understanding and classifying natural potentials, in order to help individuals identify areas of their personality that have the potential for further development.To achieve this, the project involved several key steps:1. Review of existing approaches: The project team conducted a review of existing approaches to understanding people's abilities, including hard and soft skills. They have also looked at other methods of assessing potential, such as personality tests or assessments of cognitive abilities.2. Development of a new approach: Based on their review of existing approaches, the project team have developed a new approach for assessing natural potential. This approach took into account factors such as inherent characteristics of the organism, as well as broader systemic factors that may impact an individual's potential.3. Pilot testing: Once the approach was developed, the project team have conducted pilot testing to refine the approach and ensure its validity and reliability.<< Implementation >>The aim of the project was to develop a methodology to facilitate the cultivation of natural potentials in individuals, as well as a blended pilot training program to validate the proposed methodology and evaluate the effectiveness of the associated online platform. During the training program, participants were instructed on the implementation of the methodology and familiarized with the platform's outputs. Moreover, they received training to become mentors capable of leading personalized training sessions and consulting the platform's outputs. A workshop was conducted to acquaint professionals with the project's findings and outcomes.<< Results >>The results of the project consisted of -a methodology designed to promote the development of an individual's natural potential, -a multidimensional diagnostic platform intended for objective self-assessment and support for the cultivation of an individual's natural potential, -19 pilot training program graduates who were simultaneously certified as future lecturers.The project's outputs were compiled in Czech, Polish, and English, and were made available in digital format with the capacity for free distribution."
