Managerial Core Competencies as Predictors of Managerial Performance, on Different Levels of Management

AbstractLiterature regarding job competencies agreed on a large scale that managerial competencies are linked in a complex way to managerial performance, being the main requirements for consistent performance over time. Based on Campbell's model of competencies and other models this study assessed how different core competencies of managers (N= 210) are linked to managerial performance, on different levels of managerial complexity. Competencies were significantly linked with managerial performance, but the hierarchy of those competencies was different across the managerial levels. Core competencies were more important for top managers and less important for middle managers and line managers in determining managerial performance
