Soldiers in war and in peace mission soldiers face different challenges. In the war, soldiers face clearly identified enemies and can use all available power to win the battle through acts of violence. While soldiers in peace missions should not be involved in the conflict, but must use persuasive measures and the diplomatic ability to dampen the conflict. This is not a light task, especially psychologically. Moreover for the Military Observers who are classified as "Expert on Mission of the united Nations" who are demanded to have a higher capacity. The UN has published a Military Observer handbook since 1995 which contains guidelines on the tasks and basic competencies, as well as basic skills of hard competence that Milob must possess. As a matter of fact, there are still too many Military Observer (Milobs) coming to the mission area are not capable of performing tasks effectively. Therefore, there is a need to do a study to determine whether soft competencies affect the success of Milobs in implementing the tasks. <br /> <br /> <br /> This study aims to find a competency model that Milobs can use as a reference in the TNI officer selection process as Milobs for UN peace missions. The research used is descriptive method with qualitative approach using literature study and a quantitative approach by using method of Behavioral Event Interviews (BEIs) and analysis by using the General Competency Dictionary (Generic Competency Dictionary) of Spencer & Spencer. Interview was conducted to 20 TNI officers who served in UN peacekeeping missions in the form of duty as a Military Observer, Staff Officer, Liaison Officer and Interpreter with category 12 superiors and 8 averages. The data obtained from interviews with BEIs methods were coded based on the General Competency Dictionary, further, the data from the superior respondents were compared with the average respondents. <br /> <br /> <br /> The results of this study shows that there are several kinds of competencies / skills found in the field but not listed in the Milobs handbook, and several kinds of competencies / capabilities that superior respondents have but not possessed by a much lower average Respondents. Therefore, Milobs candidates may be directed to have competence / capabilities like those of superior respondents. It is expected that this Milobs competency model can be used to improve the application of selection and training systems / debriefing for TNI officers on their assignments as Milobs for UN peace missions.
