Skill and competency models are designed. As with anything that is designed, there are different ways to approach this. Ibbaka is committed to supporting the diversity of approaches to designing and applying skill and competency models.

Individual, team and organizational use cases for skill and competency models fit together and reinforce each other. Understanding the connections between use cases will help you implement a skill and competency strategy. Choose one use case of each type to get started.

We conclude by inviting you to think about how you define your own key skills
