How to improve competence. Gram: Comparative and superlative adjectives, Comparing nouns

What are competencies?

Before we can say anything useful about competence development, it is important to agree on a clear definition of competencies. They are often conflated with skills while the two are clearly distinct concepts.
The main difference between a competency and a skill is that competencies make up a much broader category than skills.
Competencies are the sum of:
-The specific knowledge someone has on a certain topic or within a certain field.
One or multiple skills. Skills mainly refer to physical and mental actions and tasks that someone has mastered.
-The attitudes and character traits of an individual. Such as someone’s attitude towards colleagues, someone’s sense of duty, or their temperament.
In this blog you will read all about the difference between competencies and skills. You will also find practical examples of both terms.
What is competence development?
Today’s labor market is a dynamic environment. Digitization continuously demands new competencies and skills while a lot of traditional jobs are disappearing or losing ground. In addition, an increasing proportion of companies and government institutions needs highly qualified employees who are eager to learn and prepared to grow along with the organization.
On the flip side, today’s professionals are demanding as well. A lot of millennials don’t just work to pay the bills but are also looking for a meaningful position that offers growth opportunities and satisfaction. In a recent study, almost two-thirds of participating employees preferred a job with a moderate income and a lot of growth opportunities over something unchallenging and monotonous yet royally paid.
This means that employers and employees both benefit from competence development. But what exactly does the term mean? Competence development is the practice of developing one or several competencies in a specific way and in a particular direction..
‘Development’ refers to:
Improving existing competencies. Ways of accomplishing this include targeted exercise, gaining additional knowledge and changing your attitude.
Adding new competencies to your professional arsenal. This involves continuous learning and openness to new challenges.
From an organizational perspective, competence development serves two main purposes:
To improve the alignment between the competencies of employees and the strategic goals of the organization.
To stimulate and develop employee involvement in the organization. The result? Content staff and less attrition.
