COMPETENCY MAPPING Competency mapping is a process to identify key competencies for an organization and / or job and incorporating those competencies throughout the various processes (i.e. job evaluation, training, recruitment) of the organization . A competency is defined as behavior rather than skill or ability. Competency approach to a job involves competency mapping.The steps involved in competency mapping is presented below:a) Conduct a job analysis by taking incumbents to complete a Position Information Questionnaire (PIQ). This can be provided for incumbents to complete or used as a basis for conducting one-on-one interviews using the PIQ as a guide. The primary goals is to gather from incumbents what they feel are the key behavior necessary to perform their respective jobs.
b) Using the results of job analysis, a competency based job description is developed.
c) With a competency based job description, mapping the competencies can be done. The competencies of the respective job description become factor for assessment on the performance evaluation. Using competencies will help to perform more objective evaluations based on displayed or not displayed behavior.
d) Taking the competency mapping one step further, one can use the results of one’s evaluation to identify in what competencies individuals need additional development or training. This will help in focusing on training needs required to achieve the goals of the position and company and help the employees develop toward the ultimate success of the organization.
