A job description literally describes a job, but a competency model describes the human being who does the job adequately or superlatively. This webinar explains the difference between a competency-based HR system and a job-description-based HR system. It defines competencies, explains the business reasons to use them, explains how competency models are developed, and reviews each component of HR when it is competency-based. Hear how competency-based HR can lead to productivity improvements in this webinar.

What is competency? How do competency models compare to job descriptions? Why would an organization’s leaders wish to transform their organization from a job-description-based HR system to a competency-based HR system? (the answer is simple: productivity improvement!). This webinar introduces competencies and explains how HR can be organized on a competency-based system.
