Competency management involves translating your vision and strategy into concrete objectives. A successful implementation more than pays for itself by bringing greater clarity and structure to all roles. Although every implementation is tailored to your organization’s needs, hrmforce typically works in three phases.

Defining Strategy

Senior management translates the organizational strategy into an HR strategy. We use scientific principles of performance and competency management as the foundation for this process. If desired, we survey employees regarding their focus on results and their existing or missing competencies. Based on the HR strategy, we develop a concrete plan.

Structuring the HR Organization

To ensure the HR department provides optimal service to the organization, the HR structure must be aligned with the organizational strategy and the HR strategy. Hrmforce provides advice on this based on proven organizational models and HR benchmarks.

Design and Implementation of a Development Cycle

Employee development is an ongoing process that requires support from managers. By establishing targeted development agreements at the beginning of the year and providing ongoing coaching, you can increase employee employability year after year. The central question here is: Does the employee possess the right competencies?

Our consultants can provide you with comprehensive advice on implementing such a cycle through the following services:

  • Best Practice Research within your organization to collaboratively determine the optimal competency profile
  • Setting up a development cycle, ranging from online assessment tools to comprehensive development programs
  • Training for managers in coaching skills

Hrmforce Competency Handbook

With this handy, practical guide, you’ll be able to select, develop, and evaluate employees efficiently, practically, and professionally. It’s a reference guide containing 50 competencies that make behavior measurable and discussable.

Hrmforce Competency Game

The HRMforce Competency Game was developed to help you gain insight into your competencies and discover what is needed for the next step in your development. You can play the game alone, in pairs (with a colleague, your manager, or a coach), or with a group or team. The game is suitable for employees, managers, executives, organizational consultants, career counselors, students, and coaches. In short, it’s for anyone involved in the development of competencies in the workplace.
