Skills & Behaviours Assessment
Skills & Behaviours Gap Analysis
Skills & Behaviours Development Plan
Very few people view their behavioural competencies as strategic assets, to be moulded and developed to meet their personal or professional objectives. Each individual possesses very specific competencies, but most people do little to formally map those competencies to their specific advantage. WSC believes that skills and behaviours can be strategically applied to achieve everything you want.
The WSC Competency Model© is a skills & behaviour-based management model that measures, tracks and aligns skills & behaviours to your treasured life objectives and sits at the centre of the WSC Transformation Programme©.
Skills-based management is about instilling change into the mindset , values and behaviours of our students and is a conscious strategy, laid out and underwritten in the following framework:
| Skills & Behaviours Assessment |
The Skills & Behaviours Assessment is a systematic process that identifies your present stock of skills and behaviours, prioritised according to the proficiencies required to achieve the objectives defined in your Transformation Plan©.
A self-assessment process commences prior to Spa Camp© and is reviewed by your programme coach and learning group as you progress through the programme. The assessment inventories 16 key improvement areas.
These are not lofty concepts, but day-to-day competencies that allow you to effectively harness the potential of your talents, established abilities, innate qualities and aptitudes and are the building blocks of competence and success. It also neatly rules out things that won't suit you!
The assessment is used to identify skills required to achieve your objectives and starts the process of defining the elective course units required to achieve a particular objective.
| Skills & Behaviours Gap Analysis |
WSC's Skills & Behaviours Gap Analysis is a critical part of the WSC Assessment Model© and measures the difference between an individual's actual capabilities and their desired capabilities, in the context of the stated objectives within the Transformation Plan©.
Gap analysis is important because it allows you to compare your actual performance with your potential performance and answers two core questions: "Where are you?" and "Where do you want to be?".
The gap analysis process involves determining, documenting and approving the variance between your current skills and behavioural capability and the desired capability. Gap analysis naturally flows from benchmarking and other assessments described in the Competency Model.
Once the general expectation of performance, based on your objectives, is understood, it is possible to compare that expectation with your current level of performance. This comparison becomes the gap analysis. This analysis is performed in Spa Camp© and provides the foundation for determining the elective course units required to achieve a particular objective.
It also indicates the amount of student effort is needed relative to the course unit value to ensure consistency of student workload across the entire programme.
| Skills & Behaviours Development Plan |
The Skills & Behaviour Development Plan sits at the centre of the Transformation Plan© and is the comprehensive working out of the skills & behaviours development requirements identified in the gap analysis process.
The Development Plan sets out the elective course units and learning activities that support the development of behavioural competencies, skills and personal attributes required to achieve of your objectives.
Students work in consultation with Programme Coaches to bridge the skills & behaviours gaps with learning objectives implicit in selected elective course units. The best course units are selected in the context of development opportunities considered from every dimension of each life objective.
