Aerospace Systems Researchers Competency Model - A Of The Aerospace Researchers, For Example

This paper describes the fundamentals of competency and competency model, expounds the origin, definition, structure and research approaches of competency theory, retrospects to the research results of competency theory both within China and abroad, and discusses the application of competency model in human resource management.After the concept of competency model is come up with, the related research and application is mainly focused on managements. In some high-tech companies, core competition force should be reflected in scientific researchers, but their research work is ignored to some degree. Based on this point, the paper aims at assisting managements of high-tech businesses to well understand the competency of scientific researchers, which will be served as the reference for company recruitment and employee training, etc.This study discusses the competency model of researchers engaging in space technology, with the researchers in General Technology Department of one aerospace institute as survey objectives. Survey method takes the form of combining interview and questionnaires and the quantitative technique is used to analyze the materials collected. The research result basically sets up the competency model of researchers in aerospace field, including professional knowledge and know-how, team-work, working style, achievement desire and go-aheadism.
