Sense of Competence and Individual Managerial Performance

Abstract

This study relates an individual's sense of competence to his actual performance in managerial settings. The sense of competence is the set of psychological feelings of confidence an individual has about his abilities to master his external environment. The sense of competence of 123 managers was measured 6 mo. prior to the collection of three separate, independently obtained measures of individual managerial performance. There was a significant ( p < .001) and positive relation between sense of competence and all three performance measures.
