개념도(Concept Mapping)를 통한 신임 HRD 담당자 필요 역량 탐색

The purpose of this study was to explore the competencies required for novice HRD practitioners. To attain the purpose, this study employed a concept-mapping approach as follows: focus group interview was conducted for 26 HRD practitioners to gather and analyze statements. Then multidimensional scaling and hierarchical cluster analysis were implemented. The results of this study could be summarized as follows: First, 55 statements were obtained as core components of novice HRD practitioners’ competencies and 52 statements were selected eventually. Second, the competencies required for novice HRD practitioners were located at two dimensions, ‘knowledge/skill vs. relationship/attitude’dimension and ‘basic vs. professional competency’ dimension. Third, five competency clusters such as ‘job related knowledge and skill,’ ‘business planning and execution,’ ‘HRD professional knowledge and skill,’ ‘basic attitude as organization man,’ and ‘HRD professional attitude’ were obtained. Lastly, 21 competencies which include ‘ability for using computer and media’ etc. were obtained from the statements. The meaning and implications of the results were further discussed.
