Öz

The purpose of this study is to determine which managerial competencies are more important in middle level hospital management. In the study, the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method was used to determine that the first and second level competence types are more important. In the determination of the criteria in the study, the competencies included in the NCHL Health Leadership Competency Model 3.0 were used. In this context, 7 main criteria and 28 sub-criteria were determined for mid-level competency types. The data were obtained using the AHP interview form. As a result of the research, it was determined that the most important competencies of a hospital managers are human resources management, financial skills, analytical thinking, change leadership and communication skills. Hospital managers must have the necessary competencies in order for the organizations of health institutions to achieve their goals and objectives. It is thought that success in hospital management is possible not only with management functions. but also, through the execution of all the competencies specified in HCLM 3.0.
