Competency-based Leadership

Competency-based leadership is an approach that focuses on identifying and developing specific skills, qualities, and behaviors that make a leader effective. Instead of just relying on titles or experience, it emphasizes measurable capabilities—such as communication, decision-making, and emotional intelligence—that enable leaders to guide teams successfully. By assessing and nurturing these competencies, organizations aim to create leaders who are better equipped to handle challenges, adapt to change, and drive performance. This approach helps ensure leadership development is targeted, consistent, and aligned with organizational goals.
