Competency models are at the core of HR practice from the talent development standpoint. However, companies are increasingly finding them irrelevant and even confusing as succession planning puts more emphasis on specific things that make a person suitable or unsuitable for a certain position. Joining Andy Storch today is Susan Schmitt, the CHRO of Applied Materials, who presents a comprehensive model of what she calls the “suitability model.” The suitability model is composed of four broad categories which can be used to effectively assess a person’s potential for a position or their performance in a current position. Susan also talks about her upcoming book with co-author Martha Finney, Healing at Work.
