The observation of real work involving high-level competencies is not always a practical option. For example, it is difficult for assessors to directly observe candidates generating designs and ideas, analysing and solving problems, leading teams and developing long term plans. In other cases, the presence of assessors may be intrusive (such as in counseling).
Other critical competencies, such as responding to unforeseen problems and emergencies, are even harder to assess because they are seldom used. Most candidates who work in high-level roles are not closely supervised. Therefore, there is also a question of who can know enough about what they do in order to assess them.
