BUILDING A COMPETENCE  BASED CULTURE

A Proven Blueprint For Mapping Your Human Capital Management 

Needs For Achieving Strategic Advantage

23, 24 and 25 Jan 2006 

In the new knowledge-based organisation, every employee is faced with the challenge of being aware of and sensitive to what is expected of his or her role and contributions to the success of the enterprise. The approach and insights of this workshop represent invaluable tools, techniques and training in meeting this challenge.

No other planning tool has reached the level of applicability and sophistication as the present state-of-the-art approach to mapping and analysing individual, team and organizational competence. Relationships between human performance and the expectations of work and the structure of work can be established with clarity, leading to continuous improvement in the performance of the individual, of teams and of the organisation. Strategic goals and the associated human capital capabilities can be best mapped and aligned with the use of a Line of Sight approach.

As individuals, teams and organizations embrace a competence based approach to improving performance and competitiveness, we will then see the emergence of a truly high performing organization with a deep and genuine commitment to the competences of its human capital. Workshop delegates will be involved with the use of a proven approach that will help them learn to establish the right balance between the level of analysis required and the actual use of the analysis results.
