Leadership Competencies

We know that for development to make a lasting difference, people must be clear on what skill or behavior they need to improve, be motivated to make the change, and know what steps to take.

UVA HR has identified 10 Korn Ferry competencies (listed below) that play a pivotal role in your learning and development journey. Our classes and programs are designed around real-world scenarios and deliberate practice connected to these competencies, making it easy for you to identify which offerings will be most helpful when building your skills and changing behaviors.
