What is Talent Management?
• Talent management is about ensuring that people are matched
to the right job for their skills, competencies, and career plans.

realized, organizational priorities can be met, and public service
excellence can be achieved.

Competencies – Key Facts
• Include only the key competencies (behavioural and technical) to
successfully fulfill requirements of a job/profession
• There is a progression in proficiency (logical and cumulative)
• Indicators describe behaviours that an employee demonstrates at
that proficiency level:
o The list includes key behaviours for each competency; it is not exhaustive.
The list has to be manageable and accessible;
o Each indicator is measurable and uses action verbs; and
o The vocabulary must be relevant to users but also be in plain language.

What Does Success Look Like?

Expectations
Successful performers:
– Display professional behavior in a consistent manner;
– Fulfill job requirements by being productive and effective at
their work level;
– Perform at or above the job level (quality, timeliness and
responsiveness) as a matter of course; and
– Use particular approaches and demonstrate specific
behaviours that facilitate the meeting of objectives.
10
How We Use Competencies
in the FM Community
• Benchmarking (Job Competency Profile): Describes the required
proficiency level for each competency for a specific role or position
within an organization
• Hiring the right people: Use competency based tools to get the
right fit between job requirements and candidate competencies
• Learning and Development: Competencies are the basis for
employee learning plans, and can help managers focus resources
on the learning activities that best correspond to the development
needs of their employees
• Performance Management: Use of competencies in the
performance management cycle ensures that individuals are
evaluated on criteria that are relevant to the job and they are aware
of these criteria
