What is Competency Gap Analysis?
Competency Gap Analysis measures the difference between the current competency level and the competency level required for a specific position or role. This gap analysis provides critical data for creating targeted development plans, increasing training ROI, and prioritizing investments in strategic competencies.
This approach is a scientifically grounded assessment based on the TMA Method’s competency library of 53 competencies.
What Does Competency Gap Analysis Bring to Your Organization?
| Challenge | Cost | Solution | Outcome |
|---|---|---|---|
| Development needs are determined based on assumptions | Wasted training budget | Data-driven competency gap analysis | Targeted development investment |
| Role–employee mismatch | Low performance and dissatisfaction | Role–competency alignment map | Person–job fit |
| Lack of strategic competencies | Strategy cannot be executed | Strategic competency map | Strategy-focused development |
| Promotion decisions made subjectively | Risk of the Peter Principle | Objective readiness assessment | Promotion of leaders who are truly ready |
