Illinois Supervisor Competency Model from ELOE

Competencies are the foundation from which supervisors and managers build and enhance skills, knowledge, and abilities for effective performance. The Illinois Supervisor Competency Model provides a framework of skills that help individuals achieve the goals of their college, department, or unit while contributing to the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign Strategic Plan. Guided by its ambitious mission, the University depends on employees in supervisory roles to act with clarity of purpose, perform with expertise, and empower every employee to achieve professional success.
