Assessing Social and Intellectual Competencies as Predictors of Managerial Performance: In Context to Manufacturing Units

Abstract

instigated the need to identify the essential managerial competencies that can promote managerial performance within manufacturing industries. Though the manufacturing industries have realised the importance of managerial competencies in relation to overall performance of the firm, still there is a lack of adequate measurement scale to evaluate the essential competencies directly with managerial performance. Previous literatures indicate the importance of intellectual and social competencies in improving managerial performance. The purpose of this study is to precisely examine the attributes of intellectual and social competencies that affect the managerial performance in the manufacturing units in the state of Odisha in eastern India. The current study proposes an integrated measurement scale that can evaluate the competencies in relation to managerial performance, as well as will establish a quantitative relationship that exists between intellectual and social competencies with that of enhanced managerial performance.
