TEAM OF COMPANY EMPLOYEES IN THE LIGHT OF THE COMPETENCY-BASED APPROACH

The article substantiates that the problem of forming competitive management teams becomes relevant in modern conditions of an unstable environment with an emphasis on the priority of immaterial resources in the management of the company. According to the results of a comparative analysis of teams and groups as forms of company employees' association, the inexpediency of their identification was noted and it was substantiated that the team of employees differs from the group in a greater degree of cohesion, self-management, a variety of necessary competencies. It is proved that the source of the team's effectiveness is the orientation of its members to achieve a common goal compared to the orientation of group members to ensure a high individual result. The features of the implementation of the development stages of the team were analyzed, these include: the forming stage, the storming stage, the norming stage, the performing stage, the adjourning stage. Based on the analysis of the features of the implementation of the stages, the team development algorithm was specified and its interpretation was provided in the context of the competency-based approach. The article substantiates that at each of the stages of team development, a certain type of relationship between the team members arises and stabilizes, the result of which is the formation of such structures: organizational structure (model of formal distribution of powers, which is determined by the goals and objectives of the team); role-based structure (distribution of team roles between participants, which are determined by their subjective and objective competencies); communicative structure (a set of information links between group members, which are formed on the basis of its organizational and role-based structures). It is shown that the implementation of the competency-based approach in the proposed algorithm is ensured by the rational distribution of team roles, taking into account the subjective and objective competencies of team members. It was substantiated that the sources of the high efficiency of the work of teams of company employees are the creation of effective organizational, role-based and communicative structures, which requires determining a criterion for the effectiveness of their formation.
