an organization having empathic aspects within the work teams
contributes to achieve an adequate and objective organizational
climate, while empathy also implies recognizing the specific
needs of people, including within this agency a set of undeclared
knowledge, but necessary to restate responsibilities or if
necessary propose others, taking care that the mental states are
always taken care of for the benefit of the whole institution. In the
context of private educational institutions, recognizing empathy
implies recognizing the status of people and the relationship they
have with the goals, thus generating an adequate projection for
the management of human talent.
Hard Skills: The so-called hard skills are those that contribute to the unfolding of
the leaders' agency, in this sense, we are talking about much more technical aspects
that require a permanent updating work, thus contributing to the expansion, growth
and of course elements for decision making. Within the university context, leaving
aside these aspects, implies having descriptive agents, however, it is necessary to
have elements that allow the leader to truly act in favor of the organization. In the
private initiative, these two elements are fundamental, since the look implies the
recognition of the institutions in favor of our challenge as members of a work team,
that besides being linked in the operativity also does it in the projection, namely,
they are two abilities which are considered fundamental, nevertheless, in the results
these abilities were of those that more negative elements had, hence the
importance of the professionalization.
Data management: Within the current context, we have seen the change of
paradigms from the information society, to the knowledge economy, although, we
can imagine that information is not present within the context of the knowledge
economy, the reality is totally different, since, information within the process of data
management, becomes knowledge, hence this is one of the most important hard
skills. In this regard, Orellana and Sanchez (2006) state that talking about
information also implies a set of techniques that allow us to collect data, from
traditional aspects such as observation and participation, as well as non-
conventional aspects such as data mining within social networks (Hernandez de la
Rosa, 2021), today there are several aspects that contribute to think of data as a
factor of utmost importance, there are within the organization, not only aspects,
but needs that lead us to think of data mining as a key element for decision making
and setting the course within the organization.
Polyglot: Language and, therefore, communication will always be a preponderant
factor in human relations. In organizations, to think of a polyglot agent is also to
think of a cultural authority; therefore, a Rector should position himself as an
academic-manager (Hernández de la Rosa, 2017). That is why they must remain in
close liaison processes to achieve training in the communication of different
languages. In this regard, Arismendi, (2016) discusses the importance of talking
about multilingual competence, so organizations such as higher education
