The Reality of Human Competency Management in Business Organizations, An Analytical Study of Human Competency Management in Algerian Economic Institutions

Abstract

The rapid and dynamic transformations that the world has witnessed have had a profound impact on organizations, which now operate within an open global system. To ensure their continuity and survival in a highly competitive environment, these organizations rely on clear, goal-oriented competitive strategies centered on competencies. This has become even more important with the shift toward the knowledge economy, which values intangible resources.

The source of competitive advantage today is not only linked to an organization’s ability to adapt to external conditions but also to its capacity to utilize internal resources—among which competencies are fundamental. The diversity of competencies within organizations contributes directly to their ability to achieve and sustain competitive advantage. Organizational competencies, in particular, are reflected in how effectively institutions respond to environmental changes and in their pursuit of excellence.
