Description

Competencies are a standard HR tool, but can you ensure your framework really meets the needs of your business?

This simple authoritative toolkit from the CIPD is designed to make it easy for you to set up or refresh effective competency frameworks, link them to your systems and successfully increase the performance capability of your organisation.

To get you started quickly we provide a range of adaptable tools including:
PowerPoint presentations,
checklists,
fact sheets,
examples,
workshop materials,
blank forms; and
flow charts.

Simply download these as Word files from the companion website, then customise or brand them to your own requirements.

Apply your competency framework to key people management processes to:
- increase consistency and fairness in all people management practices
- improve standards and increase consistency of decision making
- align the capability of your organisation to your business strategy and vision.
