SG Chapter: Competency Frameworks for Research Manager Professional Development - 12 Aug 2026
As the research ecosystem becomes increasingly complex, research managers are expected to possess a diverse range of competencies that span specialist knowledge, stakeholder engagement, governance, leadership, and strategic thinking. This workshop introduces competency-based approaches to professional development, drawing on established frameworks such as the European Competence Framework for Research Managers.
Participants will explore how competency frameworks can be used as practical tools for self-assessment, career planning, and capability development. Beyond individual development, the workshop offers an opportunity to collectively explore how competency frameworks can strengthen professional identity, support workforce planning, and advance the research management profession.
