  1. Penn State Leadership competency inventory™: A comprehensive approach for developing and validating measurement Hyung Joon Yoon, Ji Hoon Song, Wesley Donahue, Katheryn WoodleyFebruary 27, 2010

  2. The Leadership Competency Inventory (LCI) • 32 items, keyed to competencies shown to be critical to successful performance in supervisory or managerial roles • Research-based, drawing on extensive studies by the Federal OPM, which drew on the original large scale studies by AT&T; appended with basic, core competencies (SCANS & Work Keys) • Self and Manager parallel versions • Group-based results (but can be used for individual development planning)

  3. Leadership Development Planner

  4. Purpose of the Study • To report the process used for developing a leadership competency inventory. • To examine the validity evidence of the LCI with the data collected. If the evidence turns out to be valid, the process of development and validation of the LCI may be duplicated in the HRD field by researchers and practitioners.

  5. Conceptual Framework • 22 Competencies + Synthesis • 32 Competencies • 5 Competencies • 3 Foundational skills domains

  6. Development Process of the Leadership Competency Inventory

  7. Validation Method • Participants • A total of 323 individuals from 11 healthcare-related organizations were drawn from a larger data set. • Instrument • Form I (Developmental Need Data) • Five-point Likert scale

  8. Validation Method (Cont’d) • Data Analysis • Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) • Principal axis factoring followed by promax rotation • Cronbach’s alpha coefficient • The corrected item-total correlation • Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) [Lisrel]

  9. Results1) Exploratory Factor Analysis

  10. Results1) Exploratory Factor Analysis

  11. Results2) Reliability: Cronbach’s Alpha and Corrected Item-Total Correlation • The corrected item-total correlations for each item: 435-.735. (Cutoff: 0.3 or less)

  12. Results3) Confirmatory Factor Analysis • Single order CFA results

  13. Results3) Confirmatory Factor Analysis (Cont’d) 2. Higher-order CFA results

  14. Conclusions • The results show the LCI to possess sound reliability and validity for the population of health care supervisors and managers studied. • There is a possibility that the LCI can be used for any populations regardless of industry.

  15. Recommendations for Future Research • Further validation research is necessary to ensure whether or not the four defined factors are valid for other major industries such as manufacturing and public service. • The use of the importance data is desirable, because it will cross-validate the LCI’s factor structure. • Re-assess and update the competencies by reflecting on the most recent changes in society and the workplace.

  16. Contributions to New Knowledge in HRD • This LCI validation study exhibited a comprehensive approach by integrating the LEF (OPM, 1993) and the SCANS report for America 2000 (SCANS, 1992). • This study added one more perspective—basic skills—to Naquin and Holton’s (2006) study. • HRD researchers/practitioners will be able to easily develop and validate their own, sound leadership assessments geared toward their specific purposes.
