Transformation of Managerial Competencies within the Context of Global Challenges

Abstract

This contribution presents an analysis of the transformational changes in the global environment on the content of modern models of managerial competencies. Theoretical approaches to the definition of managerial competencies according to international standards are studied, and on this basis a hierarchy of competencies, within the context of their acquisition through professional training, is determined. The predictions and changes in the basic competencies of managers in the near future (2025) are analysed. Sets of general managerial (organizational) competencies (hard skills) and non-specialized supra-professional competencies (soft skills) are defined and compared. Digital competences and intercultural competences are defined as conceptually new skills required by a modern effective manager.
