Human assets are important resources available to any organization, being essential for performance. Therefore, the demand for effective workforce, who are competent, engaged, and proactive, increases in nonmilitary and military organizations. This thesis focuses on leadership competencies required to command a dispersed military team (DMT) and role of leadership competencies on work engagement and career competencies. We conducted two studies. In the first study, we developed a DMT competency model, consisting of ten core, five leadership and five membership competencies. In the second study, we investigated the role of competencies on work engagement and on career competencies by using Job Demands-Resources model and career competencies model as theoretical framework. We focused on leadership competencies defined in our prior study. Firstly, we investigated the relationship between these competencies, and work charactersitics - job demands and resources - and work engagement. Secondly, we investigated the effect of leadership competencies on career competencies. Results showed that competencies displayed a significant positive relationship with role clarity, positive relationship with possibilities for development and negative relationship with social support; a negative relationship with role conflict and work overload; and a significant positive relationship with work engagement, in addition, role clarity mediated the relationship between competencies and work engagement. Regarding the role of competencies on career competencies, we observerved a significant positive relationship between competencies and career competencies. Overall, our results indicated that mastering on competencies affects the perception of work conditions, contributes for higher levels of engagement through perception of role clarity and leads to development of career competencies. ; O capital humano constitui um recurso muito importante disponível para qualquer organização, sendo fundamental para o seu desempenho. Por este motivo, a necessidade de uma força de trabalho eficaz, competente, envolvida e proactiva, tem aumentado em organizações não militares e militares. Esta tese foca as competências de liderança necessárias para comandar uma equipa militar dispersa (EMD) e o papel das competências de liderança no engagement no trabalho e competências de carreira. Nesse sentido foram realizados dois estudos. No primeiro estudo, desenvolvemos um modelo de competências EMD, constituído por dez competências principais, 5 de liderança e 5 de pertença a equipas. No segundo estudo, investigámos o papel das competências no engagement no trabalho e nas competências de carreira utilizando o modelo das Exigências-Recursos e o modelo das Competências de Carreira como enquadramento teórico. Neste estudo considerámos as competências de liderança definidas no primeiro estudo e investigámos a relação entre estas competências e as características do trabalho – exigências e recursos- e o engagement no trabalho. Posteriormente investigámos a relação entre as competências de liderança e as competências de carreira. Os resultados obtidos revelam que as competências apresentam: uma relação positiva significativa com a clareza de papel, possibilidades de desenvolvimento e uma relação negativa com o apoio social; uma relação negativa com o conflito no papel e a sobrecarga de trabalho; e uma relação positiva significativa com o engagement no trabalho, além disso, a clareza do papel revelou ser mediadora da relação entre as competências e o engagement no trabalho. Em relação ao papel das competências nas competências de carreira, verificámos uma relação positiva significativa entre as mesmas. Globalmente, os nossos resultados sugerem que o domínio das competências afeta a perceção das condições de trabalho, contribui para maiores níveis de engagement pela sua influência na clareza de papel, e contribui para o desenvolvimento de competências de carreira.

Secondary schools in Nigeria operate within the guidelines provided by the National Policy on Education (NPE) 1981, revised 1989 (Federal Government of Nigeria, 1989). This document stipulates the objectives of secondary education, the caliber of teachers to teach in them and their qualifications, as well as the curriculum content and methodology to be employed. It is frightening, however, to mention that in spite of the provision in the NPE, lots of problems still hinder secondary school education development in Nigeria. These include among others: acute shortage of the employability of professionally qualified teachers and the recruitment of unqualified and untrained people into teaching.
