The research outlines the facts surrounding the properties of healthcare executives and administrators in competencies and can be tested by the evaluation of skills, abilities, knowledge and attitudes. A comprehensive literature review from 2000 to 2020 has been undertaken to describe management and leadership characteristics that are meant to validate and/or classify the qualifications of healthcare managers. Reviews are performed for the electronic database using the set object collection criteria. A total number of 23 papers were inductively reviewed and found a capabilities model for healthcare management can be developed by drawing the competences and behaviour objects. The following classes were divided: communication, transition, professionalism, evidence, health care, operational and general. The study and evaluation of skills described in earlier studies resulted in a recommendation to extend the leadership and management skills structure for healthcare providers. It provides advice for health care staff in various forms in the development of preparatory and development directions.
