EXTRINSIC COMPETENCIES

Extrinsic competencies are the outward-facing, actionable skills and technical abilities leaders use to accomplish tasks and interact with the external environment. They largely fall under Competence, representing a leader's proficiency in areas like strategic planning, policy analysis, and solutions design. While less directly tied to Character, their ethical application of these skills demonstrates integrity; similarly, they utilize Capacity by efficiently managing resources and adapting plans. Developing these practical competencies enables leaders to translate vision into tangible results, effectively engage stakeholders, and drive organizational success.
