Why do we need potential-oriented talent management?
Typical phrases and signs used by our customers:
- “We can no longer find enough suitable employees to fill our vacancies
- “Even with modern recruiting methods, we are reaching our limits because there are not enough skilled workers on the market.”
- “Our sickness rate, employee satisfaction, productivity and staff turnover are not developing as well as we would like.”
- “Change processes, digitalization, New Work or Industry 4.0 are creating new requirements in the company that make it difficult to fill positions or maintain an overview.”
- “The increasing diversity and speed of change in job profiles and skills requirements is making our personnel development extremely difficult.”
- “Employees want individual and strength-oriented development opportunities, so our previous personnel development no longer generates the same motivation as before.”
- “Quality standards and auditors demand a systematic recording and evaluation of the required and existing competencies.”
Why potential is so important for the development of skills
What is a competence?
A competence is generally understood as a consciously or unconsciously retrievable ability to behave in a targeted, repeatable manner in order to successfully master specific tasks or to apply certain behaviors and procedures in cooperation.
How does a competence develop?
Competencies can be developed through learning, training or other development measures and consolidated through application and experience.
How are potential and competence connected?
The prerequisites for being able to develop a skill well result from the person’s potential. Potential is never absolute, but always targeted at one or more specific competencies. Depending on the competence in question, the required potential may consist of one or more potential factors. At the same time, the person may have (additional) potential that is not relevant to the competence under consideration.
With potential-oriented talent management, you can put the individual pieces of your employees’ personalities together to create a real success story for people and the company.

Managing potential and skills
The basis for effective HR management
Potential and competence management forms the core of effective HR management. Without potential and competence management, the other HR fields of action lack the “common language” that logically connects everything.
In this respect, potential and skills management helps to design the interfaces and fields of action in the development and future orientation of HR departments so that all elements can work together like the gears of a clockwork mechanism.
At the same time, potential and skills management provides the basis for innovatively shaping the working world of tomorrow: Aligning jobs and entire work areas with a focus on potential and skills, selecting new employees with potential recruiting instead of based on qualification headings and designing potential-oriented talent management in such a way that it does justice to the term.
