The Fifth Annual Conference and Exposition on
USING COMPETENCY-BASED TOOLS AND APPLICATIONS TO DRIVE ORGANIZATIONAL
PERFORMANCE
November 2-5, 1998 * Boston Marriott Copley Place, Boston, MA
COMPETENCIES ARE IMPROVING THE BOTTOM LINE
The results from a competency study of 7,000 senior HRD practitioners
indicate that:
7 83% report using competency-based systems
7 Those using competency-based systems perform better in the marketplace
7 More organizations are using competency-based systems with success to
communicate strategy and manage change, attract and retain talent,
develop people, and measure and reward performance
Few dispute organizational performance is a function of having clearly
defined individual, team and organizational competencies. When an
organization identifies and communicates what competencies it needs to
be successful in the present and future, the organization is providing a
powerful tool to ensure the business meets their strategic objectives.
Competencies become the roadmap for defining and communicating the
organization's strategy to employees to ensure that the organization will
achieve its goals.
