Competency management is a concept linking talent management to how organizations define skills and behaviors needed to optimize workforce performance. In Aberdeen's report, extensive research highlights how companies currently utilize competency management to create a more productive workplace. This informative report also offers recommendations to improve competency management efforts in order to achieve a competitive advantage in the labor market.
"Our study shows investments in competency management deliver tremendous business value," explains Kevin Martin, Research Director Human Capital Management at Aberdeen. "Companies deploying best-in-class competency management strategies realize a competitive advantage."
The report indicates best-in-class companies have achieved results from competency management investments showing that employee performance increased 89 percent, revenue per employee increased by 63 percent and employee turnover decreased approximately 75 percent.
Jim Sirbasku, CEO Profiles International, concurs with Mr. Martin, "Competency management helps organizations achieve optimum employee performance by determining 'fit' based more on behaviors that best match the organization. Fitting the right person to the right job clearly paves the way to competitive advantage. The Aberdeen study offers insight into this assessment-based solution and whole lot more."
