Hi all, Is there any difference between "Competency Mapping & KPIs". Thanks, Jyothi

Hello Jyothi,

One word answer to your question - Absolutely!

Competency Mapping is the exercise conducted to 'map' or identify the competencies (core requirements) required for each position to appropriately discharge their duties. Thus, as the process suggests, it identifies the key criteria each candidate MUST possess to be in their position.

KPIs on the other hand, are Key Performance Indicators. That is, they are the results which an individual is expected to produce during the course of their duties, such that they will indicate to the organisation that the duties are being performed at, or above, the minimum specified benchmark.

So, whilst KPIs (like competencies) are established prior to the commencement of duties for the relevant performance measurement period, their achievement (or not) are only ascertainable 'after the event'. That is, once duties commence.

Competencies on the other hand, are demonstrable by a person prior to commencing their work. And, in almost every instance, this demonstration is based on their past achievements, challenges, and/or areas of improvement.

I realise my answer is really simplified, please also note that whilst competencies are attached to a cluster of positions, KPIs on the other hand are, more often than not, attached to an individual role.

I hope this helps!
