How Do You Use a Blank Skill Matrix for Effective Grading? Let's Discuss!

Dear Friends,

I am attaching herewith a blank format of the grading skill matrix. In case of any queries, please feel free to ask.

Dear Sunil,

The matrix is not self-explanatory. The attributes can be defined, but the parameters for 1, 2, 3, and 4 need to be defined. However, the work is providing some guidelines.

Keep it up.

Hi,

How does this skill matrix work? Can you explain briefly or give a hint? Attributes can be defined, and whether 1234 can also be defined for each skill.

Hi Sunil,

The Skill Matrix Spreadsheet is impressive. Could you please explain in detail how to use this format and what major outcomes we can derive from it? It would be nice if you could share some more formats from your treasure.

Thank you,

The same questions that each one has... How does it work? Does the grid have any specifications? Does this help in competency mapping if I have to use it for the ground-level staff.

Would appreciate if you email.

Dear Sunil,

Here is my understanding:

The sheet is depicting one particular department where for different kinds of roles, you need various attributes. For example, a trainer would need good communication, training module development, TNI, etc. This will apply to all employees under this department, but due to their level of operation, the level of attributes would vary. For instance, a manager would be required to be proficient in all attributes, meaning he should have a score of 4 in all attributes. In contrast, a Trainer Coordinator would need Communication 4 but TNI 3 or Training Modules Development 3. A trainee would require Communication 4, and other attributes cannot be defined for him because he is a trainee. However, once he advances from this level, his minimum standard of attributes would increase and become fixed.

Use of this skill matrix:

This skill matrix will help in identifying the right candidate during recruitment because this will serve as standards.

During performance appraisal, you can match their performance as per these set parameters.

I hope my understanding is correct. I have described this in layman's language.
