COMPETENCY
FRAMEWORK
Competency
A combination of skills, job attitude, and knowledge which is
reflected in job behavior that can be observed, measured and
evaluated.
Competency is a determining factor for successful performance
*
Competency and Job Description
Job description looks at what, whereas competency model focuses on
how.
Traditional job description analysis looks at elements of the jobs
and defines the job into sequences of tasks necessary to perform
the job
*
Managerial competency (soft competency)
Functional competency (hard competency)
*
Competency Identification
Gather Data through Behavior Event Interview and Focus Group
Conduct Benchmark Study
Generate Competency Models
Adaptability—Maintaining effectiveness when priorities change and
new tasks are encountered, and when dealing with individuals who
have different views and approaches. Effectively performing in
different environments, cultures, and locations, and when working
with different technologies and levels of individuals.
KEY BEHAVIOR
Seeking understanding—Makes efforts to better understand changes in
the environment; actively seeks
information or attempts to understand nature of individual
differences, logic, or basis for change in tasks and
situations.
Embracing change—Approaches change or newness with a positive
orientation; views change or newness as a learning or growth
opportunity.
Making accommodations—Makes accommodations in approach, attitudes,
or behaviors in response to changing environmental
requirements.
*
Analysis/Problem Assessment—Securing relevant information and
identifying key
issues and relationships from a base of information; relating and
comparing data
from different sources; identifying cause-effect
relationships.
KEY BEHAVIOR
Identifying issues and problems—Recognizing major issues;
identifying key facts, trends, and issues; separating relevant from
irrelevant data.
Seeking information—Identifying/Recognizing information gaps or the
need for additional information; obtaining information by clearly
describing what needs to be known and the means to obtain it;
questioning clearly and specifically to verify facts and obtain the
necessary information.
Seeing relationships—Organizing information and data to
identify/explain trends, problems, and their causes; comparing,
contrasting, and combining information; seeing associations between
seemingly independent problems or events to recognize trends,
problems, and possible cause-effect relationships.
Performing data analysis—Organizing and manipulating quantitative
data to identify/explain trends, problems, and their causes.
*
Benefits of Using Competency Model
For Managers, the benefits are:
Identify performance criteria to improve the accuracy and ease of
the hiring and selection process.
Clarify standards of excellence for easier communication of
performance expectations to direct reports.
*
Identify the success criteria (i.e., behavioral standards of
performance excellence) required to be successful in their
role.
Support a more specific and objective assessment of their strengths
and specify targeted areas for professional development.
Provide development tools and methods for enhancing their
skills.
*
Alignment: Competencies impact systems that actively support the
organization’s vision, strategy, and key capabilities.
Integration: Competency initiatives that produce the most
significant change are applied systemically across a range of HR
development processes.
Distribution: Competency standards alone produce little effect.
They must be actively and relentlessly communicated and installed
with users.
Key Characteristics of Successful Implementation
*
Self-Directed Application: Competency systems frequently fail
because they are too complex or require an unsustainable level of
sponsorship or program support. Implementations that work best
focus on the development of “tools” that can produce results for
users with relatively little ongoing support.
Acculturation: In competency systems that work, they become part of
the culture and the mindset of leaders through repeated application
and refinement over a significant period of time.
Key Characteristics of Successful Implementation
*
Unstructured :
Is a type of interview where the questions are not designed
systematically and not properly structured.
There is no standard format to follow, therefore the process of
interviewing can go in any direction.
*
Has low reliability and validity – there is no accuracy in
predicting performance
Susceptible to bias and subjectivity (gut feeling)
Conventional Interview
Competency-based Interview (CBI)
Is a structured type of interview. The questions are focused on
disclosing examples of behavior in the past.
The process of interview is intended to disclose specifically and
in detail examples of behavior in the past.
*
Has a high level of validity and reliability.
Equipped with a standard scoring system which refers to behavior
indicators
Competency-based Interview
S What was the Situation in which you were involved?
T What was the Task you needed to accomplish?
A What Action(s) did you take?
R What Results did you achieve?
*
Where and when did the situation happen?
What events led up to it?
Who was involved in the situation (work colleagues, supervisor,
customers)?
Approach in Competency-based Interview
What tasks were you supposed to do at that time?
What did you actually do at that time?
How did you do it?
What specific steps did you take?
Who was involved?
Can you tell me the results of taking such action?
What specific outcome was produced by your action?
Results
Competency Sample Question
Persistence In the process of selling, we are sometimes not
successful in securing a new transaction. Can you
tell me about one or two situations where you repeatedly failed to
get a new client?
What specific steps did you take? What was the result?
Influencing Others Can you describe one or two cases in your effort
to
*
Competency Sample Question
Interpersonal Can you tell me about a situation where you faced
Understanding a client who was disappointed with your
product?
What was the situation like? What specific steps
did you take? What was the result?
Planning & In working, we often face a number of
priorities
Organizing that must be tackled at the same time. Can you tell me
about one or two actual cases where you had
to face such a situation? What did you do? What was the
consequence?
Sample Questions in CBI
First
Impressions
An interviewer might make a snap judgement about someone based on
their first impression - positive or negative - that clouds the
entire interview.
*
Halo
Effect
The "halo" effect occurs when an interviewer allows one strong
point about the candidate to overshadow or have an effect on
everything else.
*
Contrast
Effect
Strong(er) candidates who interview after weak(er) ones may appear
more qualified than they are because of the contrast between the
two.
*
Implementation of Development Program
Defining Career Path
Career Path is a series of positions that one must go through in
order to achieve a certain position in the company.
The ‘path’ is based on the position competency profile that an
employee must have to be able to hold a certain position.
What Is Career
Analyzing a position or job based on the competency required
Categorizing the positions that require similar competencies into
one job family
Identifying career paths based on the job family
Competency profile (Functional and Managerial Competency) Per
Position
Categorizing the positions into a Job Family

Assessment Center Characteristics:
Multiple trained observers and techniques are used.
Judgments about behaviors are made, in major part, from
specifically developed assessment simulations.
*
Types of Test in Assessment Center
In-trays or in-baskets involve working from the contents of a
manager’s in-tray, which typically consists of letters, memos and
background information. You may be asked to deal with paperwork and
make decisions, balancing the volume of work against a tight
schedule.
In-Basket
Exercise
In a role play, you are given a particular role to assume for a
certain task. The task will involve dealing with a role player in a
certain way, and there will be an assessor watching the role
play.

In a fact-finding exercise, you may be asked to reach a decision
starting from only partial knowledge. Your task is to decide what
additional information you need to make the decision, and sometimes
also to question the assessor to obtain this information.
Fact-Finding Exercise
Types of Test in Assessment Center
You may be required to make a formal presentation to a number of
assessors. In some cases this will mean preparing a presentation in
advance on a given topic. In other cases, you may be asked to
interpret and analyse given information, and present a case to
support a decision.
Presentation
Types of Test in Assessment Center
Group exercises are timed discussions, where a group of
participants work together to tackle a work-related problem.
Sometimes you are given a particular role within a team, for
example sales manager or personnel manager. Other times there will
be no roles allocated. You are observed by assessors, who are not
looking for right or wrong answers, but for how you interact with
your colleagues in the team.
