| Abstract |
The creative economy becomes a source of sustainable economic growth based on innovation and creativity. A creative and innovative business requires human resources with the necessary competence. Research on competency within the creative economy has primarily focused on either each subsector or on large-scale enterprises. Thus, there is a lack of competency research concerning creative economy small and medium enterprises. This study aims to develop competency models for SMEs in a creative economy based on the results of the literature review. A comparative analysis of the competency models was conducted to obtain the proposed competency model. The proposed competency model framework consists of three levels: competency category, competency area, and competency element. The result of this study indicates that there are 28 competency elements across the three competency categories. Besides, there are differences in the needs of competency elements for managers and workers in the creative-economy SMEs. These findings can be used as a basis for government and business actors to apply competency based human resource management for the managers and workers in the creative-economy SMEs. |
