Further, the study investigated the effect of sex, academic qualification, experience, place of living and job position variables on management competencies available among government department directors working in the Palestinian ministries. To this end, this study was conducted on a population of 185 directors. The statistical analysis was made for 172 directors. The number of respondents represented 93% of the intended sample of the total population. Data were collected from a 70-item questionnaire distributed among seven domains which measured management competencies available. The domains included public relations, management or personnel affairs, planning, management of financial resources, management of time and meetings, decision making, and professional development. By using Cronbach Alpha, the instrument's total reliability amounted to 0.92. This high reliability coefficient was sufficient for the purposes of the study. Processing of the statistical data was done by using SPSS: arithmetic means, percentages, t-tests for two independent groups. ANOVA and Scheffe's post-hoc test among arithmetic means. Findings The degree of management competencies available among government department directors in the Palestinian ministries was high. The percentage of response amounted to 79.2%. The decision-making domain got the first rank among management competency domains. The percentage of response on this domain was 84.8% while the percentage 01" response on the financial resources domain, which came last in order, was 72.8%. It was also found that the lack or financial resources and equipment was the most serious obstacle preventing government directors from developing their Own management competencies. The response on this domain was 19.25%, The least serious obstacle was the biggest gap between the director and the employees, The percentage of response was 0.005%. It was also found that there were no statistically significant differences at a=-0.05 in management competencies available among Palestinian ministries' department directors which might be attributed to sex. experience and academic qualification variables, However, there were statistically significant difference due to job position variable, The majority of differences were between the director general and the C and D directors ill favor of the former. In the light of the study objectives and findings, the researcher recommended the following: 1- Holding English language courses for directors to improve their communication skills and introducing computers in all government departments in the Palestinian ministries to make work more efficient and accurate, thus inceasing productivity. 2- Drawing up appropriate development plans as well as creating a clear job description in the government departments. 3- Creating a clear civil service system for appointments free from favoritism and political affiliation | en |
