Actually, I am not really convinced that one of them suites middle and upper level management jobs. But if I have to choose, I will choose the Critical Incident Technique (D)

 

Position Analysis Questionnaire (PAQ model): is a structured instrument of job analysis to measure job characteristics and relate them to human characteristics. It consists of195 job elements that describe generic human work behaviors.

 

Functional job analysis (FJA model)It includes7 scales (numbers) that measure:3 worker-function scales: measure % of time spent with: data, people, things;1 worker-instruction scale;3 scales that measure reasoning, mathematics, language.

Diary method: This method is a useful tool of job analysis to ask worker maintaining and keeping daily records or list of activities they are doing on every day.

Critical incident technique (CIT model) is used to identify work behaviors that classify in good and poor performance.

The critical incident technique (CIT) is a systematic procedure for obtaining rich, qualitative information about significant incidents from observers with firsthand experience, which in turn helps researchers understand the critical requirements for individuals, processes, or systems.

Combination of Option A (Position analysis questionnaire) & Option D (Critical incident technique). No one option can give a close enough analysis specific to middle and top tier professionals.

The competency-based job analysis method is more suitable for middle and top-level management jobs. It focuses on identifying the skills, knowledge, and behaviors required for leadership and strategic roles, which are more complex than lower-level positions.

The more suitable method is functional job analysis, in fact FJA assesses the specific functions, duties, and activities that managers perform, often focusing on decision-making, strategic planning, and leadership tasks. Overall, FJA provides a comprehensive understanding of managerial roles, helping to align job descriptions with organizational goals.
