Abstract

The paper presents the results of the study conducted by the scientists of the Laboratory of Psycho-economical and Cross-Cultural Research, Institute of Social Sciences, Irkutsk State University. The paper provides an overview of the top challenges to the development of leadership qualities in members of student communities and proposes the ways of their minimization. The emphasis is placed on the fact that the studied leadership qualities are important for both the individual and society, and are an indicator of social well-being and patriotism. Social well-being and patriotism are considered through the prism of state regulation, psychological characteristics of young people and socio-cultural research. The authors propose the approach to solving the problems of development of leadership qualities through the category of "social capital". Psycho-physiological barriers and destructive impact of social environment can be reduced through rethinking of the role of social capital, the place and importance of the state and student communities in stimulation of young people. The paper uses research data from scientific foundations in Russian cities of Abakan, Vladivostok, Irkutsk, Kemerovo, Kyzyl, Tomsk, Ulan-Ude, Chita and Yakutsk, and a total of 2000 respondents were involved in the study.
