Our desire to control our environment is as old as humanity. Over the century’s philosophers and theologians through discussions of free will and determinism have debated our desire for domination and the extent of human capability. 
The current understanding of personal efficacy as a psychological concept has evolved from social cognitive theory during the past 30 years. The assumption that your sense of self and the social contexts in which you live, and work have mutual influences is one of its principles. 
The environment in which you live and work influences who you are, including beliefs about self-efficacy, and who you are. You don’t believe just what you see from this perspective; you also see what you believe (Maddux, 2002). 
We will discuss the power of personal effectiveness to influence what you see and thus what you believe. First, we will define the competence of the manager and then discuss why it is important. 

The competence of the manager 
Organisational success is based on the manager’s competence. Where the manager has the ability, skill and attitude, s/he can do any task that s/he has, but s/he needs a sense of motivation to become an achievement or a role model for the rest of the organisation. 
The ultimate motivation is to make an employee efficient. An employee’s effectiveness depends on the potential effectiveness of the employee, his technical skills and experience, and his role in organisational design. The integration of the person and the role ensures the effectiveness of an employee in the organisation. If the role cannot use their skills and they feel constantly frustrated in his role, their efficiency will be probably low. The individual’s integration into the role only occurs when the role can meet the individual’s needs and when the individual can contribute to the evolution of the role. The more we move from role, the more we move from role-taking (in line with the expectations of different other individuals) to role-making (the initiative to design the role more creatively, to integrate the various expectations and the roles of others) the more effective is the role. Therefore, the effectiveness of a person within an organisation can depend on his own potential efficiency, potential role effectiveness and organisational climate.
