How do we add Competencies?

Category: Performance

Competencies are measurable skills or abilities that an individual needs to perform their job roles successfully in an organization. These competencies are measured through rated scores. For example:

Team Player

A person who plays or works well as a member of a team.

Technical Skills

Technical skills are the abilities and knowledge needed to perform specific tasks.

Leadership Ability

Skills and abilities individuals demonstrate to help and steer their employees toward the achievement of shared goals in an organization.

 

Why this feature?

In Profit.co, the competencies are measurable skills or abilities that help in monitoring the performance of employees. Based on their competencies, the employees are given scores that reflect their overall performance in the organization.

To create competencies:

Step 1

Navigate to Settings  →  Performance  →  Reviews from the left navigation panel and click on the competencies tab and click on Add a new Competency button.

Step 2

In the Create Competency side panel, enter the Competency Name, Group Name, and Description. 

You can also enable the toggles for Who can Rate the competency ratings of employees in Performance Reviews.  

Step 3 

You can enable or disable the Competency Rating toggle to choose whether to include a rating option for this particular competency.

Once a competency is disabled, the slider bar will no longer be visible, allowing you to leave comments only for that particular competency.

Note: You can now easily rearrange the order of competencies by dragging and dropping them in the settings, and the updated sequence will automatically reflect in reviews.
