Competency Management Programs can include activities in each of the four key areas of people management described in the Competency Management Uses section, consisting of:
Learning & Development Activities
Learning and development activities involve aligning education and training with individual and organizational competency needs.
Recruiting & Selection Activities
Recruiting and selection activities involve building teams with the right mix of competencies through hiring and contracting.
Performance Communication Activities
Performance communication activities are used to have conversations between organizations and their staff about role expectations, performance feedback, and personal growth and development priorities.
Succession & Workforce Planning Activities
Succession and workforce planning activities are used to align the needs and priorities of the organization with the capabilities and capacity of its staff, in the near-term and the long-term.
A description of each activity type is provided in the following pages, along with a table of example activities. The tables provide a sample list of activities that can help organizations identify options which may work in their specific circumstances. However, the tables are not intended to be an exhaustive or comprehensive list of potential activities. Also, regardless of the activity being considered, it is important to make sure it aligns with and enhances organizational and AM goals, closes priority AM Competency gaps, and can do so within any organizational cost or time constraints.
Scaling Options
The tables also identify which of the activities may be useful at different organizational scales. The right-hand “Suitability” columns in each table identify whether the activity listed would be appropriate for organizations at each of the three scales described previously on the Scaling Options page.
Small / New to AM Communities ("S/N")
Mid-sized / Developing AM Communities ("M/D")
