Resumo: This thesis proposes the production of a scale able to establish the necessary skills for a consultant in human resources management. Being an abstract and relatively new scientific debate topic, there is no single definition that is totally accepted. However, we can characterize competence as a union of knowledge, skills and attitudes that are demonstrated in job performance. With regard to consulting, this can be conceptualized as a set of activities from an internal or external agent to the company, which is responsible for assisting client-companies in decision making. By using methodological procedures such as Focus Group, Semantic Analysis and Analysis of Judges, the scale has been taking shape for validation, attended by 238 people who met certain criteria, such as being a senior student or a post-graduate course student related to consulting; being professional degree in any area related to the work of the consultant; being a consultant or teacher in people management; or business manager. The sample had a predominance of women (75.6%) with an average age of 32.19, with lato sensu post-graduate studies (45.4%), and an average individual income of R$ 2,800. Held factor analysis, the scale remained with 31 items, getting a factorial structure consisted of three factors (KMO = 0.83, r² = 25.93%): F1: Practices (17 items, r² = 11.70%, α = 0.87); F2: Posture (8 items, r² = 8.12%, α = 0.71); F3: Intellectual repertoire (6 items, r² = 6.11%, α = 0.68). From the analyzed results, it was found that the factors that have arisen in the exploratory factor analysis allude to the hypothetical dimensions designed in this study, concluded that the validated scale displays good psychometric indicators, serving requirements of statistical technique, achieving to cover a range of items that deal with the main behavioral, attitudinal and theoretical characteristics of the consultant in People Management. This study contributes to the professionals, because with the scale they can constantly evaluate their own performance, as it will also help business managers to measure the results achieved by that professional practice in his/her organization.
