LEADERSHIP AND MANAGEMENT COMPETENCIES LIST by New York State Government

LEADERSHIP AND MANAGEMENT COMPETENCIES LIST

This listing was created by the Competencies Work Group, drawing heavily on the competency models cited in the Work Group's report. The competencies are offered for your use in constructing your own leadership and management competency models. Note that:

• It is not a comprehensive list but includes competencies that the Work Group considered important.
• In many cases competencies overlap.
• Some competencies listed may also be used to group several competencies.
• The definitions are in the form of behavioral statements, wherever possible, to ground the competencies in observable behaviors.
• You may wish to create a summary definition from the bullets, delete bullets, or add your own to tailor the competencies for your own use.
