Professional Competence in the Training of Venezuelan Managers
Abstract
Training based on competences has been promoted by the Tuning Project for Latin America. The objective of this study was to determine the competences that must be strengthened for the academic training of managers in graduate school. The research was descriptive-correlational. An adaptation of the instrument on general and specific competences in the area of Business Administration of the Tuning Project was carried out. This version of the instrument was applied to postgraduate students, graduates, human resource managers, and professors. For the analysis, the approach of four philosophical fundamentals of business administration was considered. The results show the need to strengthen the specific and general competences applied, there is also little development in competences related to ethics and social responsibility of the manager, which can impact performance and methods (epistemology) and managerial management work (praxeology). It is suggested to review the academic curriculum and evaluate a model that strengthens competences.
Keywords: professional competences, leadership, managers, Tuning Latin America Project.
