In an attempt to materialize the aims and achieve the goals of Resilient Economy, it is imperative to identity and appoint competent managers in the banking system. This research is an exploratory mixed – design (qualitative – quantitative) study which strove to investigate the performance of senior managers through a competency model with regard to the policies of resident economy. For the qualitative phase of the study the literature of the study was thoroughly explored and the techniques of the Ground theory were meticulously applied. Then interviews were conducted with 25 senior managers using Snowball Method (Theoretical Saturation) the data were subsequently coded in three level and analyzed. As a result, a model based on competency-based dimensions, competency components and competency indicators of senior banking managers was extracted.
