Skills Taxonomy, Competency Mapping, Common Language

A company needs to be able to link its resourcing strategy to its business strategy, and that requires consistent skills taxonomy. Skills taxonomy is a common language framework to describe positions/roles across various competencies and benchmarking these competencies against your ideal candidates for that position.

A global organization employing thousands of people across multiple geographies needs the common language framework, not only to recruit and develop the best people it can find, but it also needs to be able to effectively deploy its human resources so that the right people are matched with the right opportunities.

With skills taxonomy in place, an organization can really fulfill the promise of having the right person in the right place at the right time. It can precisely describe the resource requirements, accurately match resources to opportunities, assess skills and talent across internal, external and sub-contracted workforce and create targeted training programs to help plug skill gaps between what is required in a person to what is available.
