Competence goes beyond knowledge and skill.
You may be able to design and construct a guitar but not so well that a top performer wants one of your instruments. Role and situation make calls on ability and performance. Thus we can define the general and specific competences of a sales person compared to a sales manager or a computer services manager. For undergraduate and higher diploma studies we can generalise about the relevant competences and associated knowledge, skills and personal orientations needed for handling Business events and problems. The skills will encompass ability, self-awareness and commitment to pursue your own continuing development both generally and as a Business person.
