Abstract
VILLALOBOS-PEREZ, ALFONSO; QUIROS-MORALES, DIEGO and LEON-SANABRIA, GIOVANNI. Some theoretical and methodological considerations for the development of a critical competences model (CCM): an operant approach. Av. Psicol. Latinoam. [online]. 2011, vol.29, n.1, pp.62-76. ISSN 1794-4724.
This paper develops some theoretical and methodological considerations for the development of a critical competence model (CCM). The model is defined as a set of skills and knowledge functionally organized allowing measurable results with positive consequences for the strategic business objectives. The theoretical approaches of classical model of competences, the contemporary model of competencies and human competencies model were revised for the proposal development. implementation of the model includes 5 steps: 1) conducting a job analysis considering which dimensions or facets are subject to revision, 2) identify people with the opposite performance (the higher performance and lower performance); 3) identify critical incidents most relevant to the job position, 4) develop Behavioral Expectation Scales (BES) and 5) validate BES obtained for experts in the field. As a final consideration, is determined that the competence models require accurate measurement. Approaches considering excessive theoreticism may cause the issue of competence become a fashion business with low or minimal impact, affecting its validity, reliability and deployment in organizations.
