Mastering Skills Mapping

Totara Talks Talent

In this episode, we're joined by Brendan Kilshaw, Performance Consultant at the Met Office, and Malcolm Taylor, Head of Capability at the UK Health Security Agency.

We delve into the significance of skills frameworks, sharing insights into the process of skills mapping and its importance in measuring competencies. Brendan and Malcolm guide us through the initial steps of setting up a skills framework, including identifying key competencies for various roles, and the importance of customising these frameworks to meet specific industry needs.

We explore the challenges they faced, strategies for successful stakeholder involvement, and how they integrated skills frameworks into their training programs. They also highlight the metrics used to measure skill improvements, the role of technology in tracking progress, and the real-world impact on organisational performance.

Finally, they offer advice for organisations looking to implement or improve their skills frameworks, discuss future trends in skills development, and share strategies for staying ahead in this evolving field.

Tune in for actionable insights to elevate your organisation's competency frameworks and drive success.
