Competence Development

Talent Selection Hires and retains the right people according to business needs; leads succession and talent development activities to ensure the company has the right competences available for business development; ensures the organizational know-how is steadily increasing to maintain the company's competitiveness; works constructively with HR functions.

· Is unable to identify the right people for the job;
· fails to motivate and retain key personnel;
· misjudges the competence and the potential of others;
· fails to establish a positive link between performance and compensation.

People Development Uses coaching, mentoring, delegating, training, project assignments, etc. to grow employees' competence and confidence; ensures all employees have and implement quality development plans based on business needs, the employee's motivations and his current level of competence; helps employees to see problems/tasks from different angles in order for them to find the best solution; creates a climate that builds on employee's strength.
