Abstract
This research aims to investigate the components, develop a model, and create a guideline manual for enhancing the potential of executives in private vocational education institutions to produce graduates that meet the needs of industrial businesses in the digital era. The POSDCORB framework was employed as the foundation for defining the potential components. The study was conducted using a three-round Delphi technique and focus group discussions. The target group consisted of 18 executives from private vocational education institutions, along with two groups of experts and specialists: (1) 16 experts participating in focus group discussions to evaluate the model, and (2) 5 experts responsible for evaluating the manual. Qualitative data were analyzed using content analysis, while quantitative data were analyzed using median and interquartile range. The findings revealed that the executive potential model comprises 7 main components, 23 sub-components, and 41 indicators. The potential development manual consists of four parts: (1) Introduction, (2) potential development guidelines across seven categories, (3) guidelines for implementing the model, and (4) evaluation based on the main components of the model. The evaluation results by experts indicated that the developed model and manual are appropriate and can be effectively applied to enhance the competencies of executives in private vocational education institutions to produce graduates that meet the needs of industrial businesses in the digital era.
