Competency Mapping: Building a Framework People Use

Competency Mapping: Building a Framework People Use

Competency frameworks fail when they are bought rather than built, or built so elaborately that nobody can apply them. This session covers a practical method for deriving competencies from the work, writing behavioural indicators by level, and wiring the framework into hiring, development and promotion.

  • By the end of the program, participants will be able to:

    • Derive competencies from job analysis and business strategy rather than a generic library
    • Write behavioural indicators across proficiency levels
    • Build a competency matrix mapped to job families and grades
    • Connect the framework to recruitment, learning, performance and succession

    • Types of competency: core, functional, leadership (8 min)
    • Derivation methods: critical incident, repertory grid, strategy mapping (14 min)
    • Writing behavioural indicators by proficiency level (14 min)
    • The competency matrix and job family mapping (10 min)
    • Wiring it into HR processes - and keeping it alive + Q&A (14 min)
