The Complete Manager Competency Framework

Definition

The least you need to know

The Complete Manager Competency Framework is Les McKeown's catalog of the 14 learnable skills a manager needs to do the job well, grouped into three overlapping categories: Productivity, Developing Others, and Teamwork. It came from pattern recognition across hundreds of managers in organizations large and small, across more than 20 countries. The framework carries a recommended sequence: master your own productivity first, then develop your team, then work well with others. Each competency is defined as observable behaviors you can assess.
