Using the List of Competencies
Challenge of Identifying Competencies Needed by Leaders
The particular competencies (knowledge, skills and abilities) that a person needs in order to lead at a particular time in an organization depend on a variety of factors, including:
1) Whether that person is leading one other individual, a group or a large organization;
2) The extent of leadership skills that person already has;
3) That person’s basic nature and values (competencies should be chosen that are in accordance with that nature and those values);
4) Whether the group or organization is for-profit or nonprofit, new or long-established, and large or small;
5) The particular culture (or values and ociated behaviors) of whomever is being led.
The above considerations can make it very challenging when trying to determine what competencies someone should have in order to be a better leader. Perhaps that’s why leadership training programs in institutions typically ert a set of standard competencies, for example, decision making, Problem Solving, managing power and influence, and building trust.
Don’t Get Hung Up On Categories — Different People Will Categorize Topics Differently
If the reader had the opportunity to review a variety of leadership development programs, he or she would notice a wide variety of approaches to categorizing topics. Don’t get hung up on the “right” way to categorize the topics.
Competencies Are ulative from Leading Individuals to Organizations
Leading in successively larger contexts (from individuals to groups to organization-wide efforts) requires successively larger sets of competencies. For example, “core” competencies are the minimum needed in leading others, whether other individuals, in groups or organization-wide efforts. To really be effective at leading other individuals, one should have the core competencies plus certain other competencies to lead individuals, etc.
