Competencies are the building blocks and the measure of an individual. Each of us have some competencies which are our signature strengths and some which are our
Achilles heel.
iMantri’s offers members a free competency profile questionnaire and a competency development need analysis.
Each member is not only encouraged to complete the questionnaire for themselves but also get their superiors,
peers, friends and family to complete one on their behalf for a 360 degree perspective. Click on any the
Competency Heat Map to learn about these various competencies and the associated mentoring resources
available at iMantri and beyond.
What is a Competency?
A competency is fundamental skill, knowledge and abilities required to help perform a task.
The risk of Peanut Butter Spread
- Most of us are far from perfect and need to improve on several areas. However, taking on too much will dilute your focus, divide your attention and lead to conflicting priorities. This is akin to spreading peanut butter on a slice of bread. A mile wide and not even an inch deep!
- Focus on one or two competencies and/or goals which are important, urgent and have an impact on your life.
- The essence of iMantri's approach is to help you build solid fundamentals which will help you develop/enhance skills and capacity which can stand you in good stead beyond the short term
- Mentoring doesn't work well for ad hoc, one time advice seekers. You need to be committed to the mentoring process and focus on long-term results, not short-term solutions
