Interested in competency development? Start with what the job requires.
We define what each job requires, assess your people against it with evidence, and turn the gaps into plans. The detail belongs in a conversation.
Six stages, in the order they happen
Every engagement follows the same arc, whether it covers one job family or the whole workforce. Step through it here; the scope is what we settle on the call.
Stage 1 of 6: Requirements gathering
Requirements gathering
- Scope
- Job families
- Discovery
A scoping call, then a short discovery: which job families are in scope, how many people, what frameworks, records or systems already exist, and what the programme must answer to — a regulator, a board, a localisation target.
Where you start
The sequence differs depending on who you are assessing. The first three begin with the framework; the fourth begins with what you already have. Pick one and the enquiry below is pre-filled.
Existing staff
- 01Prepare the competency framework
- 02Assess
- 03Define improvement areas
- 04Prepare IDPs
- 05Execute and re-assess
Fresh graduates
- 01Prepare the competency framework
- 02Assess
- 03Prepare IDPs
- 04Execute with frequent performance follow-up
- 05Re-assess
New hires
- 01Prepare the competency framework
- 02Use the model for screening and assessment
- 03Manage progress and promotion
- 04Annual re-assessment
A stalled system
Usually the framework was built and the assessment never repeated, or the gaps were reported and no development plans followed. A specialist reviews what exists before proposing anything new — there is often more to salvage than clients expect.
- 01Review what exists — framework, assessment records, plans
- 02Salvage and update the framework
- 03Re-run assessment against it
- 04Prepare IDPs for the gaps that were never actioned
- 05Set the re-assessment rhythm
Tell us what you are trying to fix
Competency work is scoped, not priced off a list. Give us the shape of it — how many people, which job families, and whether you are starting from nothing or repairing something that stalled — and a specialist will come back with a realistic path and what it takes.
