Competency Model Myth-Busting
Successful companies seek to determine the actual or potential of each employee’s capability to add value to the organization. The key to accurate capability evaluation and, therefore, appropriate intervention for development, lies in the determination and assessment of identified competencies. Every organization has its unique set of competency models that are crucial to the success of each employee, and the success of the entire organization.
Competency models, when done well, can increase clarity around performance expectations and establish a clear link between individual and organisational performance. When developing and implementing a competency model, care needs to be taken to balance detail with flexibility, and to avoid an overly prescriptive and non-inclusive approach. In this Masterclass workshop, we will explore some myths and the reality of competency models.
Workshop Highlights:
By the end of the workshop, participants will be able to understand the reality behind the following myths:
- Myth 1: Competency models focus on the past and can’t keep up with rapidly-changing environments
- Myth 2: You can use an external competency library to build your organization’s competency model
- Myth 3: Competencies can only be validated through benchmarking with other firms that are considered best in class
- Myth 4: Competency models are cumbersome, complex and not user-friendly
- Myth 5: Competency models fail to deliver on anticipated improvement in performance

Design Thinking for HR Practitioners
There’s a shift under way in organizations, one that puts design much closer to the centre of the enterprise. But the shift isn’t about aesthetics. It’s about applying the principles of design to the products and services they offer, and it is a human-centered approach to design.
This new design approach is in large part a response to the increasing complexity and chaos of the world that we live in. In these trying times, innovating to survive and thrive amidst unprecedented volatility and numbing challenges of the unknown is no more an option. HR is certainly not excluded from this new reality.
This 1-day Masterclass is designed to provide HR practitioners with the PRACTICAL knowledge, capabilities, and competence to understand, internalise and apply design thinking and agile mindset to revitalise innovation capacity in the HR realm.

- Understand the agile mindset and behaviors required for design thinking
- Understand the human-centred design thinking processes
