The question is what the key competencies for each position are. Main objective of this paper is to present results from a pilot research aimed at utilization of the DEMATEL method in competency modeling and to determine if there are any causal relations among key competencies within the competency model. The case study has been executed in an automotive company for the position of a top manager. Firstly, the authors deal with the description of competency models, its development and utilization.
