Episode 47 — Build competency assessment that links skills directly to business outcomes (2B2)
This episode teaches you how to build competency assessment so skills are linked directly to business outcomes and enterprise risk needs, not just job titles or training completions. You’ll learn to define competencies in practical terms, including technical skills, governance skills, operational discipline, and decision-making ability, then map them to capabilities the enterprise must deliver reliably, such as secure delivery, resilient operations, regulatory reporting, or data governance. We’ll cover how to assess competency using evidence like performance results, incident patterns, quality metrics, and role-based expectations, and how to identify gaps that create delivery risk or control breakdowns. Real-world scenarios include overreliance on a few key experts, inconsistent practices across teams, and training programs that do not change behavior because expectations were never operationalized. For CGEIT scenario questions, the best answers often emphasize competency assessment tied to outcomes, with clear remediation plans that include staffing, training, process improvements, and accountability for improved performance.
