Your field, your evidence of competence

The leadership field provides the context. The chosen certification profile and its classification determine which competencies have to be demonstrated.

The IFoBL leadership model combines expertise, practical skills, experience and judgement.

The IFoBL MOSAIC for leadership in projects

Professional context, methodical skill, collaboration and self-leadership: the four TILE categories connect the competencies for Project Management into one picture.

General TILEs

Understanding the context.

Placing strategy, culture and general conditions in context. Recognising interests and understanding what decisions mean for the organisation.

Methodical TILEs

Enabling impact.

Choosing suitable approaches, making goals concrete and shaping implementation. Using methods that fit the task and the situation.

Social TILEs

Connecting people.

Building trust, enabling collaboration and dealing with tension constructively. Taking responsibility together.

Individual TILEs

Leading oneself.

Reflecting on one’s own actions, taking other perspectives and acting with clarity and reliability.

The certification profile determines which maturity levels of the individual TILEs have to be demonstrated. The classification makes these requirements binding.
