Translating technical excellence into impact and value in the new world of work.
Using SAICA’s Competencies Framework to enable and accelerate own and other’s performance in the digital workplace.
Do you think about what you can do to accelerate your career? Does it ever feel like your value is not fully seen or is held back? Does it frustrate you that some team members do not pull their weight? As a leader, do you wonder how to unlock other’s potential?
The reasons people thrive or fail in a role are often not related to their level of technical knowledge. Technical competence is only one of three aspects of impact and performance. The ability to lead ourselves and others requires awareness and application of a range of competencies at different levels of complexity, both to thrive in our roles and fit and adapt to the culture of our teams and organisations. The shift to an increasingly digital workplace and the advent of virtual working has emphasised the importance of behavioural and team fit competencies more than ever before.
Competencies are often seen as little more than HR jargon rather than key areas of accountability. What is also not often well understood is how competencies look at different levels of work.
This series of six two hour workshops aims to provide members with a framework for understanding their own and others’ performance enablers and disablers using the language of competencies. It will provide members with tools to evaluate their own and others’ effectiveness and identify key levers for selection, performance management, career pathing and succession. Each workshop takes a particular competency cluster as a theme and focuses on unpacking SAICA’s Professional values and attitudes and Enabling competencies by asking these questions:
