Abstract

The article is devoted to examination of the concept "professional successfulness". A complex analysis of approaches to definition of the concept is presented, including understanding of the concept as a self-assessment of the result, as an external evaluation and an integrated approach. Both internal and external criteria of professional activity assessment are thoroughly described. An additional special group of criteria is distinguished – professionally significant qualities. The principle of defining levels of professional successfulness is explored basing on the criteria of its assessment. The article analyzes, summarizes and essentially supplements theoretical and methodological foundations of assessing professional successfulness and contributes to theoretical background of labor psychology
