âWorkitect brought a significant amount of practical expertise in Competency Model design to the table. This helped us decide on what the best approach would be early into the project, given our particular corporate culture and context. Workitect was able to present alternatives that felt right for us, without feeling like we were getting âoff the shelfâ products.â
âMy organization uses the Workitect methodology for writing competency models because itâs structured enough to give us direction, but the many tools provided also allow for flexibility. Youâre not forced into using a cookie-cutter approach when youâre faced with time constraints or the complexities that often arise when youâre trying to pinpoint success factors for highly technical or ever-evolving jobs. The models we designed using the Workitect approach helped our company revamp our entire performance development process.â
âIn an environment where everyone is quick to tell you the value of competency models, Workitect is one of the few organizations that actually teach a repeatable process for building customized models.â
âWorking with the Workitect consultants was refreshingly different from the usual consultant experience. Not only did they demonstrate significant expertise in building competency models for our organization, they were dedicated to providing our internal staff with the skills needed to follow the process and build additional models ourselves. Their goal was to teach and guide us to be self-sustaining, and they did this by providing training, allowing us to shadow them during the building process, and being available to address questions and concerns throughout the process.â
âOverall, our relationship with Workitect has been invaluable, and we are quick to recommend them to anyone who is interested in creating customized competency models for their organization.â
