Leading a team and achieving business goals requires more than just technical expertise – it demands managerial competencies such as leadership, adaptability, problem-solving, and decision-making. Many companies, especially those without an HR team, face the challenge of identifying and developing the key competencies in managers that are essential for long-term success. One of the most effective tools for assessing these skills is the Thalento® MANAGE, a licensed HR tool for managerial team development.
What Are Managerial Competencies and Why Are They Important?
Managerial competencies combine skills, knowledge, and personal traits that make a successful leader. Whether it's making quick decisions, guiding a team through challenges, or tackling complex problems, a manager’s ability to respond effectively often makes the difference between success and failure. Thalento® MANAGE assesses key competencies including:
Glavne kompetencije koje procjenjuje Thalento® MANAGE su:
• Decision-making
• Leadership skills
• Adaptability
• Problem-solving
• Communication
These skills are vital for successfully leading a team and achieving business objectives. Managers who develop and continuously improve these competencies contribute to the growth and success of the company.
How Does Thalento® MANAGE Work?
Assessing managerial competencies using Thalento® MANAGE is a straightforward yet effective process. Each manager completes a 30-minute online questionnaire, and the results provide a detailed insight into each manager’s strengths, weaknesses, and potential. This assessment allows companies to identify areas where additional training and support are needed, thereby empowering their leaders for a stronger future.
Key Benefits of Managerial Competency Assessment
Assessing managerial competencies allows you to:

When you understand how your managers operate, it’s easier to create a cohesive and productive team.

When managers perform at their best, teams become more productive, problems are resolved faster, and goals are achieved more easily.
