| Summary: | The primary aim of this paper is to evaluate the contribution that
competence based approaches to staff management can and ought to
make to the overall effectiveness of organisations. The importance of
competencies and their proper management is broadly acknowledged
in the literature, and the first part of the paper is a literature review.
This is followed with a comparison of the design and implementation of
two competence management projects that were introduced in two
central banks, one of a western European nation, and the other of a
central European nation.
There is a brief presentation of two fundamental approaches to
competence management implementation in organization (top-down
(directive) and bottom-up (participative)), and this is juxtaposed with
the actual implementation of competence management model that took
place in two central banks.
What ensues from the comparison is the identification of potential
threats to the implementation of competence management models in
organizations, accompanied by suggestions on how to counteract them. |
