Competency mapping adds value to organizations in that it helps to scientifically match individual competencies to job roles. This ensures that the correct people are identified well in advance for specific job roles based on competencies. Competency mapping helps the organization to hire, retain and motivate the best people for specific job roles and organizational requirements. Furthermore, competency mapping helps to identify competency gaps which become an invaluable input to the organization’s people development and management strategy in order to ensure a strategic fit for the achievement of its goals and objectives. Competency mapping is a helpful tool for succession planning as well.
