Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Competencies are often described as qualities that are relevant for managers or professionals within a specific context, including a mix of skills, traits, and behaviors that contribute to someone's ability to perform effectively. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because competencies can indeed involve a combination of skills and traits, are not determined solely by heredity, and are more about skills and abilities than internalized attitudes about right and wrong.
