Abstract: Introduction: In today's organizations, governance has transformed into a multi-layered structure that is not limited to corporate oversight and compliance processes, but is also related to stakeholder management, digitalization, ethical responsibility, transparency, and team-based decision-making processes. This transformation necessitates a reevaluation of the competencies that individuals and teams involved in governance processes must possess—a brief contextualization of the problem addressed by the article that is presented to the reader; ii) objective: The aim of this study is to develop an integrated conceptual framework that explains the relationship between individual and collective competencies, organizational governance capacity, and governance mechanisms at the team level. iii) methodology: The study is a conceptual and theoretical literature review. Competency modeling, corporate governance, digital governance, stakeholder management, and team-level governance literature have been examined; classical competency theories have been integrated with contemporary studies to propose a comprehensive model. iv) Results: The review shows that effective governance is not only dependent on structural mechanisms but also on competencies such as leadership, ethical judgment, communication, data-driven decision-making, stakeholder sensitivity, and intra-team coordination. v) conclusions: The study reveals that governance competencies should be considered dynamic capabilities that support accountability at the individual, collective, and team levels, and proposes a behavior-based governance competency framework for contemporary organization
