People Development Planning

In today's complex and knowledge-intensive world, the importance of capability development is even more crucial. Whilst changes in the business environment will alter current skills needs, skills development must be based on the objectives defined in the strategy.

Continuous evaluation and development of the organization's strategic competences is essential for future success. We can support your organization in competence development planning, creating development models and building competence development practices.

The first step in capability development is to identify the core capabilities required to execute your strategy, that will make your organization succeed, and that will create a competitive advantage for your organization. This is followed by an identification of the capabilities that exist within the organization and the capabilities that need to be enhanced. Once the strategic capabilities have been prioritized and defined at the strategic level, it is necessary to consider what they mean in departments, teams or key functions. Often, capability development starts at the individual level, meaning that an individual's capability may not be aligned with the capability defined in the strategy. A coherent people development plan for the organization will ensure that competences are developed in a way that supports the business. People development planning should be conducted for a few years into the future so that capabilities can be developed in a scheduled process.
