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.

Four categories of competence

An IFoBL MOSAIC maps the leadership competencies of a leadership field. Individual TILEs come together to form this picture, organised into four categories.

  • General

    Understanding the context.

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

  • Methodical

    Enabling impact.

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

  • Social

    Connecting people.

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

  • Individual

    Leading oneself.

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