model

The CompetencyModel, also known as the competency model, refers to the sum of the competencies required to perform a specific task role. It was gradually developed by David McClelland, a well-known American researcher on organizational behavior, after the concept of "competency" was proposed. McClelland defines Competency as the ability to clearly distinguish between an outstanding level of performance and a general level of performance in a particular job and organizational environment. There are five levels:

Knowledge

Skill

Self-Concept

Traits

Motives

apply

McClelland applied the iceberg theory to call the knowledge and skills that belong to the sea level Threshold Competencies, and the deep factors that can really distinguish the excellent from the average person are the self-concept, traits, and motivations that lurk below the sea level, which are called DifferentiationCompetencies.

class

General and special

General ability refers to the ability to observe, remember, think, imagine, etc., and is also commonly called intelligence. It is indispensable for people to complete any activity, and it is the most important and general part of ability. Special ability refers to the ability of people to perform special occupations or professional needs. For example, the ability to represent auditory perceptions required in music. People are engaged in any professional activity that requires both general and special abilities. The development of the two is also mutually reinforcing.

Ability to imitate and create

Imitation refers to the ability to learn various knowledge by observing the actions and activities of others, and then respond in the same way. Creativity, on the other hand, refers to the ability to generate new ideas and products.

Ability is related to the function of the brain, which mainly focuses on the performance in practical activities, that is, the stable personality and psychological characteristics that are possessed to successfully complete a certain activity; Ability is acquired through repeated training in the process of using intelligence, knowledge, and skills. Ability is the psychosomatic energy that people show by relying on their own intelligence, knowledge, skills, etc. to understand and transform the world. The organic combination of various abilities and the ability to change qualitatively are called talents. The highly developed talents, the ability to creatively complete tasks is called genius.

Operational, social and cognitive skills

Competence can be divided into cognitive, operational and social competence according to its function.

Cognitive ability: Cognitive ability refers to the ability to receive, process, store, and apply information. It is the most important psychological condition for people to successfully complete their activities. The abilities to perceive, remember, attention, think, and imagine are all considered cognitive abilities. The American psychologist Gagne proposed three types of cognitive abilities: verbal information (the ability to answer the question of what the world is); Wisdom skills (the ability to answer why and how questions) and cognitive strategies (the ability to consciously regulate and monitor one's cognitive processes).

Operational ability: Operational ability refers to the ability to manipulate, make, and move. The ability to work, the ability to express art, the ability to play sports, and the ability to operate experiments are all considered to be the ability to operate. Operational ability is developed on the basis of operational skills, and has become an important condition for successfully mastering operational skills.

Cognitive and operational abilities are closely linked. There must be operational ability in cognitive ability, and there must also be cognitive ability in operational ability.

Social competence: Social competence refers to the ability that people exhibit in social interactions. Organizational management skills, verbal contagion skills, etc., are considered social skills. Social skills include cognitive and operational skills.

General trends

Ability is necessary for the successful completion of a certain activity, and it directly affects the efficiency of the activity. The development of ability changes with age and has a certain regularity.

1. Childhood and adolescence are the most important periods for the development of certain abilities. From the age of three or four to the age of twelve or thirteen, the development of intelligence is almost the same as the growth of age. Later, with the increase of age, the development of intelligence showed a negative acceleration growth: with the increase of age, the development of intelligence tended to be moderate;

2. Human intelligence peaks between the ages of 18 and 25 (some say 40 years old). The timing of the peak of the different components of intelligence is different;

3. According to the study of the lifelong development of human intelligence, human fluid intelligence has a downward trend after middle age, while human crystal intelligence rises steadily in human life;

4. Adulthood is the longest period of life, and it is also the most stable period of ability development. Adulthood is another time of work. Between the ages of twenty-five and forty, creative activities are common;

5. There are individual differences in the trend of ability development. The development of high ability is fast, and the peak time is late; The development of low capacity is slow, and the peak is reached early.

The first: the ability to maintain your sleep quotient. Five-star difficulty.

No matter what happens, no matter how difficult it is, you can sleep normally at night, and sleep like a child, and wake up the next morning full of energy to solve the difficulties and problems you face.

I think it's a very important ability and skill, and it's also a difficult ability. As we get older, our sleep will slowly decrease, we are no longer like children who can sleep until dawn, if we really encounter something annoying, we may start to insomnia, insomnia will make you sluggish, the already bad mood may become worse because of insomnia, which may make your insomnia more serious, vicious circle, I believe that people who have experienced insomnia will feel the same.

If you have the ability to ensure that your sleep is not affected, no matter what happens, you can fall asleep soundly when you should sleep, and wake up naturally when you should wake up, so that you will have enough energy to solve the troubles you are facing, no matter how difficult, everything will pass.

Second: The ability to maintain inner peace (Innerpeace) The difficulty factor is 4 stars

We live in a chaotic world, and it is difficult to maintain inner peace. Many years ago, I was tortured and embarrassed by hair loss, and my heart collapsed with anxiety, and then I somehow borrowed a book from the library "Be the Master of Destiny", author: James Allen, my Zhihu avatar is himself. This book has inspired and changed me a lot, and he told me in the book: "Only by maintaining inner peace can people burst into infinite possibilities." "Then I read all his other books. In those most confusing and distressing days, his books brought me infinite energy, and I kept reading them by my bedside. Many of my online accounts have changed to jamesallen or James Allen, and I hope to remind me to "keep my peace of mind" at all times.

Maintaining inner peace can make you calm when you encounter things, can make you have the composure and calmness of "Mount Tai collapses in front of you and the color remains unchanged", can make you have "good as water" like no quarrel with the world, you will no longer panic when you encounter trouble, you will no longer be distressed when you encounter suffering, you will only think calmly and respond positively, I think only by being able to maintain inner peace at any time can you become a real man.

It is true that maintaining inner peace is not an easy task, and it requires you to keep practicing, practicing, and improving.

The third: meditation, the ability to empty yourself with a difficulty factor of three stars

Meditation should be the easiest of these three things to do, but people often ignore the importance of meditation, and few people can insist on meditation, regular meditation will reduce the activity of a person's amygdala, so that you become less susceptible to negative emotions interference and influence, can more effectively deal with all kinds of troubles and difficulties in life, so that a person becomes more rational, happy, optimistic and positive, body and mind become more healthy. After meditating, use the voice diary app "Sound Past" to organize the output content of your thoughts. When meditating, there are often new inspirations and ideas that are easy to forget in a flash, and this software can quickly record and output them with voice. I also use it to record the troubles and anguish in my life, which is very helpful for releasing negative emotions, meditation is the way to truly understand the inner self, without understanding the self, the heart can never be completely satisfied.

Fourth: the ability to insist on exercising the body with a three-star difficulty factor

I don't think I need to say much about the importance of health to a person, without health everything else becomes meaningless, including life. Exercising consistently may not guarantee that you will not get sick, but it can greatly enhance your resistance, enhance your physique, enhance your immunity, and try to keep you away from diseases. It's not difficult to exercise, it's hard to persevere. No matter how busy I was, I would go for a half-hour jog in the playground around half past nine every night, only interrupted when it rained.

Fifth: the ability to learn for life The difficulty coefficient is four stars

Many people naturally become functionally illiterate when they reach middle age, and they are unwilling to accept new knowledge, and all the input reading is just to confirm his inherent knowledge, and people prefer to hold a thermos cup and curl up in their comfort zone to close their eyes and recuperate, which is human inertia, which is very comfortable, but not good. Maintaining the ability to learn for life and break through your comfort zone at all times is painful, but important, and it's a great way to expand your comfort zone and keep yourself competitive.

Update note: The title of the book mentioned in the article may be incorrect, because it was written casually when this article was written, but it doesn't matter, James Allen doesn't have too many books, and most of the books are repetitive, just read one.
