Competency Modelling
Competencies are the skills, knowledge and attributes that people need in order to perform well in their jobs. Competency modeling is the process of identifying and profiling the competencies required for individual jobs, job levels or job families.
What are the Benefits of Competency Modelling?
- Competencies drive everything from selection and development to succession and performance.
- Competencies are at the core of a good talent management strategy
- Your people will be motivated to work with your chosen competencies if those competencies have a clear link to success.
- Being clear about your competency needs is necessary for your organisation to stay competitive.
LDN’s Approach to Competency Modelling
The best approach to competency modeling is one that is centered around your goals.
We start by looking at your organisation's planned business outcomes along with the challenges you face - for example, you may be interested in cultural change or building a strong pipeline of future leaders.
We help you decide upon the scope of application. Would you like to take a company-wide approach for multiple jobs and levels or just focus on creating success profiles for your high-impact jobs ?
Once the scope has been defined, we work with you to cover the six key components of competency modeling:
- Define job performance criteria
- Choose people within your organisation who understand the job and its context
- Have those people select the most significant competencies
- Take into account the challenges of the job
- Identify what differentiates superior performers
- Validate the results.
