-
Perseverance
-
Solve
-
Lead

Correct Answer
A. PerseveranceExplanation
Perseverance is not a core competency because it is not a specific skill or ability that can be developed or measured. Core competencies typically refer to a set of skills or knowledge that are essential for success in a particular field or role. While perseverance is certainly a valuable trait, it is more of a personal characteristic or mindset rather than a core competency. Core competencies are typically more tangible and specific, such as problem-solving, leadership, or the ability to add value in a particular area.Rate this question:
