Competence

This document discusses competence management in organizations. It outlines several key points: 1. Competence management involves specifying an organization's core competencies, identifying individual competencies, and developing competencies through training to reduce gaps. 2. Competencies can be identified at different levels from organization-wide to position-specific. Mapping current competencies against future needs allows organizations to determine competency gaps. 3. Managing competencies requires estimating their value, developing core and specific competencies, measuring gaps, creating development plans, and continually supervising demonstrations of competencies. Organizations must market competency needs and shift practices to reward learning over job roles.
