Abstract: In Korea, there are very few successful cases of Rural Community Support Project management organizations, including the economic (income) part as well as the community revitalization part and the facility operation management part. To counter these problems, competence diagnostic results can assist in building these management organizations’ competences. Previously, studies have been conducted on the diagnosis of an individual’s competence. This study, however, was conducted to develop a tool for such a diagnosis using survey items derived through literature review and by verifying the adequacy of this content. The surveys were then finalized by further verifying the construction validity and reliability of the questionnaires. The surveys were administered to the chairs and the directors of Rural Experience Recreational Village councils, to develop an organizational diagnostic tool for the competent operational management of rural communities. The diagnostic tool developed by this study can be used as an indicator to determine whether a rural village has the capacity to carry out projects.
