The key to talent management begins with having the right people in the right positions. However, before an organization can do this effectively, it must first identify those key organizational, success and leadership factors needed to achieve the business goals and objectives of the organization. Developing a competency model for your organization is the best method for identifying, engaging and developing key talent.
A competency model describes the particular combination of knowledge, skills, behaviors, and personal characteristics needed to effectively perform a role in an organization. Competency models are used to guide staffing, performance management, training and development, succession planning, and compensation practices. The ability to distinguish the average or below average employee from the superior employee in the recruitment and employee selection, performance management and professional development process is fundamental to a competency-based system.
See below for a list of documents and tools available with the Competency Modeling Success Kit. Upon request, a needs assessment/best practice consultation is also available from a TMS subject matter expert. |
