Journal Title: Language, Culture, Politics. International Journal - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
The essential feature which decides upon human effectiveness and competitiveness in the outer world, is competence. So, competence is an attribute of an adequately or well qualified human being who, due to this feature, can be easily distinguished from other individuals. Moreover, the possession of knowledge and an array of qualifications is beneficial not only to the distinguished individual but to the environment in which he actively functions, playing various social roles. Nevertheless, competence is not a gift given to us at birth. Instead, we are born as “tabula rasa” and with time, while developing physically, we also develop intellectually. Therefore, human development is an element of human life where people are involved in a life-long transformational process characteristic of interaction and socialization, which in consequence brings people to their competence and competitiveness. Hence, the present article is devoted to a brief discussion over selected stages of human life and activity which foster personality through transformational development.
