Competency

 

This is a set of information, skills, abilities, and personal characteristics that help employees
perform better. Business planning and decision-making, for example, could be the competencies of a Product Manager. Written skills, awareness of the user’s experience, and market awareness are all possible qualities for a technical writer.

Competencies can be assigned to Departments and Designations. You can use it as one of the
modules for performance evaluation once it’s been tagged. Competencies can be assigned a
weighting, rated, and included in an appraisal cycle.

For example, if you’ve specified Goal and Competency as modules to include, you can
determine how much weight KRA and Competency should receive. This option helps define the
relevance of a module by assigning different weights to it. Goals, for example, are given more
weight in specific organizations than competencies. It is possible to determine which module
should be given priority by using this option.

• When an appraisal cycle is started, the rating will be supplied for the modules selected
  according to the weightage that is established (by Self/Multi-Rater/Reviewer as
  configured in the cycle).
