The NASA Leadership Model consists of four "models", one for each of four leadership roles as shown in the navigation buttons to the left.  Those buttons are linked to the model for the specified roles. Each of the models consists of four levels of specification and all four have the same first two levels and almost identical third levels:

Dimensions:  These are the six highest level elements of the Model.

Competencies:  These are the 20 second level elements of the Model. They consist of measurable skills, knowledge or personal characteristics that have been demonstrated to be essential to effective leadership in the Agency.

Skills:  these abilities or proficiencies are narrow in scope and often developed through training or experience.

Behaviors:  These are the lowest level elements. Their demonstration or performance indicates proficiency within a skill.

To download the model for a particular type of leader, go to the page for that type of leader by using the navigation buttons to the left.
