You need to determine what talents are needed to successfully met your business strategies, identify who your emerging leaders are and then see what additional experiences they need to help prepare them for future roles.

Consulting firms do this by administering a battery of tests, interviews, simulated exercises, etc. They have the advantage of standardized tests, but they still need to match the talents to what top leaders deem important.

Start by asking your top leaders what they think.

Good morning:

In answer to your quwstion concerning "Gap Analysis" I am happy to report that we have developed an on-line process for doing just that. Following is an outline for your review:
1. Conduct an on-line Job Analysis of the Generic or Transfrable skills to determine the Job Requirements
2. Conduct and Employee Asset Analysis to identify the Transferable skills possessed by the employee
3. The process will compare Job Requirements with the employee assets and generat a "GAP Analysis."
4. The transferabl;e skills is a fixed data base that was developed after ten years of research working with employers in the private sector
You can learn more by visiting www.match2jobs.com.
We can also provide you with a complimentary trial for both the job analysis and employee assessment finishing up with the Gap Analysis.

Thank you!

If you are interested in using a standardized assessment, I recommend the Hogan Assessment. Hope this helps.

I´ve been identifying competency gaps as follows:
1- Elaborated updated job descrptions
2- Separated job descrptions in 3 sections: a) responsabilities info, b)job requirements info in terms of skill, knowledge, abilities, interest, style, c)behavioral info.
3- Gathered employee info regarding 2b from personnel record.
4- Compared 2 and 3 to identify gaps clasified by importance and urgency levels.
