Skill and competency management is the key enabler of digital transformation. Successful execution requires a series of design decisions. The cascading choices, the use cases and three key decisions are covered here, along with a link to a presentation on this theme.

Once upon a time, work was organized in terms of jobs and the job architecture governed the organization. This model is failing.

It is how we perform our multiple roles that drives performance.

Redesigning the job architecture has become part of implementing a new HRIS. These architectures are hollow shells without a rich skill and competency model.
