Building Competency Models

Three-Day Workshop   
This comprehensive three-day workshop arms HR professionals with the information they need to develop competency models to improve hiring decisions, increase productivity and enhance organizational performance.
Competencies count:
  • Research suggests that the cost of a bad hire can range from one to five times of that position's annual salary - for a $50,000/year employee that can mean as much as $250,000.
  • A study of the productivity value between average and superior performers showed that, in highly complex jobs, the output of a superior performer was 48% greater than an average performer.
  • Think of how much more your top salesperson sells than an "average" salesperson. $100,000...$500,000...$1,000,000... More?
HR professionals can have a direct, bottom-line impact on their organizations' hiring costs, productivity levels and outputs by developing and implementing competency models based on a proven approach that gets results. Building Competency Models will give you all the information you need to develop and implement a results-oriented competency model.
