This article examines the problem of how subjectively prepared the human capital of modern Russian industrial enterprises is for the technological breakthrough on the threshold of the fourth industrial revolution. It analyzes social types of workers differing in terms of motivator-dominants for labor (motivation models) on the basis of an expert sociological survey of company managers. These types are “lumpen person,” “economic person,” “social person,” “ethical person,” “psychological person,” and “creative person.” The conclusion that the “economic person” dominates in the social structure of enterprises, that the “lumpen person” has a noticeable presence in this structure (10 percent), and, in the context of urgent development tasks, that the “creative person” holds a weak position shows that it is not possible for the human capital of enterprises in its current form to act as a full-fledged catalyst of technological breakthroughs. At the same time, the article finds preliminary confirmation of a hypothesis regarding a regressive trend over time of the structure under examination: a strengthening of the “negative” positions in terms of production output of the “lumpen” group of workers and a weakening of the position of the “positively tinged” (creative) group
