Executive summary

A competency model defines the knowledge, skills, and behaviours that drive superior performance in a role, anchoring hiring, development, and assessment. This is the Competency Model from the Stratenity Library, a governed consulting deliverable that is already built for you. It gives your team the full working method for competency, and it walks through everything from types: core, leadership, functional, technical to avoiding bloat: the vital-few principle. Every asset ships with a worked client example, a clear RACI, defined KPIs, and governance you can defend, so your team adapts it to a live client engagement instead of starting from a blank page.
