Management of Managerial Competency

Abstract

Competency Manager is a software application designed to manage key competencies in nursing, providing systemic support to manage managerial competencies, which are also crucial for nursing but are currently undervalued. This application was developed within a project of applied research for a specific client, a health care facility. The architecture and significance of the software application have already been published. This article focusses on creating a model for managing managerial competencies, which, unlike other competency groups, were not subject to legislative norms, but aimed to meet the client's needs. The article outlines theoretical foundations and evidence-based methods (stakeholder engagement strategy, evidence-based implementation with change agents, discussion, brainstorming, and Delphi method for review within expert panel) leading to the selection, description, and implementation of 9 core managerial competencies within the created model.
