Summary/Abstract: How, and in what way, managers do their job depends on many factors, of which the most important are the competencies of managers. This paper presents the results of theoretical and empirical research that identified competencies of managers based on knowledge, as well as competencies of managers based on the personalities of managers. After identification of manager competences, the paper presents the model for their development. The model for development of managerial competence proposes the adoption of general, special and specific knowledge through formal education, by which the manager is being trained for the managerial role, which is further, trough informal education, being converted in managerial skills. The second course of managerial competence development is based on the fact that managers need to develop elements of their personality, such as creativity, passion, persistence and courage, into managerial skills, through non-formal education. Managers should seek to establish the equilibrium of "competences diamond", i.e., they should seek to balance the development of their managerial competences.
