Competency mapping is a process used by HR to assess employees' strengths and determine their competency levels. It examines emotional intelligence and individual strengths in areas like leadership. Techniques for competency mapping include behavioral interviews, critical incident reports, and assessment centers. The implementation process involves identifying positions and their required competencies, conducting job analyses, and measuring competency gaps to determine training needs. Competency mapping benefits both employees and employers by helping employees strengthen skills and employers deploy the right employees for each role.
