Competency model
A competency model is an organization's structured description of the knowledge, skills, and behaviors required for success in each role and level. It is the shared language HR uses to hire, develop, promote, and measure — the org's operating system for talent.
Why it matters for HR leaders
Without one, every manager runs their own model in their head. With one, capability decisions are consistent, defensible, and coachable across the enterprise.
How Leadify uses it
Leadify integrates with existing competency models — Korn Ferry, DDI, SHL, Lominger, or custom — mapping scenarios and rubrics to the framework you already run. No rip-and-replace.
