description |
For the past years and up till today, the concept of managerial competence has been a
popular topic for researchers to explore. John Beck (1984) developed a composite model
of managerial competence based largely on the integrated competency model of Richard
E. Boyatzis (1982). He also developed a 145-item questionnaire on managerial
competence and administered it to groups of Hong Kong and Singapore MBA students
over a period of ten years. The purpose of this report is to establish the internal reliability
of this self-administered questionnaire and to do a comparison between the competence
profile of Hong Kong and Singapore samples. Generally, the interitem reliability
coefficients of the questionnaire are acceptable after omitting some questions with low
correlation and only a few coefficients are unacceptable. Different clusters of competences
emerged from both Hong Kong and Singapore data and they differ significantly from the
composite model of John Beck. Four competences that significantly differentiate Hong
Kong and Singapore managers are identified. Further research can be conducted to
establish the validity of the emergent models of managerial competence and to find out
why managers in the two countries differ in terms of the four competences identified.
Also, the questionnaire may also be modified to improve the interitem reliability. |
