Competency Mapping
Competency Mapping
Nowadays, the competition is not between products; it is between people. What is at the
core of this is the competence of the organizations. Competence is, however, different from
competency. While competence is the ability to do a particular task, competency concerns
the underlying characteristics which allow a person to perform well in a variety of
situations.
The entire concept of the competency management is based on the second definition.
Arya Chanakya, a well-known royal adviser and prime minister from Vedic India, penned a
famous book known as the Arthashastra, which is probably the first book on competency
mapping. The book contains competency mapping models, the thesis and theories of human
aptitude, intelligence quotient, emotional quotient and in general everything that is related to
human behavior regarding work, logic and emotions. This book is an excellent leader and
management book and is more than 3000 years old.

The roots of competency modeling date as far back as the early I 900's but these models
have become widely popular these days. A competency model is an organizing framework
that lists the competencies required for effective performance in a specific job, job family

organized into competency models to enable people in an organization or profession to
understand, discuss, and apply the competencies to workforce performance.

set standards in Indian Industry.
Jamnalal Bajaj was the founding father of the Bajaj Group. The adopted

wealth he created in trust for the people of his country. Trust - a simple
word that contains a whole philosophy handed down by Jamnalal Bajaj
to his successors. He valued honesty over profit, actions over words and
common good over individual gain.
Ramkrishna Bajaj took over the reins of the "Bajaj group" in 1972 after
Kamalnayan Bajaj and steered the Group from strength to strength for
over 22 years. He had also actively participated in the freedom struggle
of the country. In post independent India, he had led the youth
movement. All along, he actively strengthened the foundations of
business through ethics and practices both within the group and
amongst the business community as well.
Shekhar Bajaj, Chairman & Managing Director of Bajaj Electricals
Ltd., started his career with Bajaj Sevashram after which he worked at
Bajaj International, the group's export company. Mr. Shekhar Bajaj
joined Bajaj Electricals in 1980, became the Managing Director in 1987
and took over as the Chairman and Managing Director in 1994.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Research methodology is a way to systematically solve the research problem. It may
be understood a science of studying now research is done systematically. In that
various steps, those are generally adapted by a researcher in studying his problem
along with the logic behind them.
Data collection plays an important role in research work. Without proper data
available for analyze you cannot do the research work accurately.
1. Primary data
2. Secondary data
Primary data
Data used in research originally obtained through the direct efforts of the researcher
through surveys, interviews and direct observation. Primary data is more costly to
obtain than secondary data, which is obtained through published sources, but it is also
more current and more relevant to research project.
Here we have collected the data by interviewing the Head of the department
Secondary data
Secondary are those which have collected by someone else and which have already
been passed through the statistical process. The secondary data consist of reality
available competences already compiled statistical statement secondary data consist
of not only published record and reports but also unpublished records.
Here we done the analysis on the basis of secondary data which include -

Concept of Competency at BAJAJ ELECTRICALS LTD.
A formal appraisal form is been prepared and filled by employees and reviewed by
respective Heads of the department for checking the behavioral competencies of the
executives.
The forms have been devised with a view to ensuring maximum objectivity in the
preparation of the report. In filling up the forms, tick marks and dashes are not to be
used. Both the reporting and the reviewing officers have to indicate their opinion by
writing out in full and appropriate alternatives which best describe the officer’s
qualities.
Organizations use Competency Mapping records for a variety of things. But the
best way of utilizing them is to develop people and improve their performance
through a clear understanding of their work goals, so that they realize and reach what
Maslow calls "Self actualization" (i.e. fully realizing their potential and thereby
achieving their own professional and also organizational goals). Competency
Mapping is used for reward and punishment sometimes, in such case great care must
be taken so that it forms objective, honest and accurate record of formal evaluation of
on the job performance of the employee and supports or corroborates the kind of
rewards and punishments proposed.
The achievement of the stated objective is the mutual responsibility of both the
reporting officer and the subordinate by making the appraisal process as objective as
possible. It should be a joint participative, sensitive and positive exercise rather than
being one sided, evaluative and judgmental.
26
Competency Mappings are for determining training need identification and for
promotions etc. The Competency Mapping has delinked itself from being an
instrument of evaluating performance through performance review discussion and
bringing about better performance in the organization. Application of performance
management practices enables organizations to improve their performance and bring
in a performance driven culture.

SUGGESTIONS
Following Suggestions were given and action plan is prepared
1. Job Knowledge/Technical Skill and Relationship & communication Skill training for
Senior Manager of Accounts department.
2. Job Knowledge/Technical Skill training for Senior Manager of TLT and Pre Production.
3. Time Management Training for Senior Manager of TLT and Pre Production.
4. Leadership Training and Job Knowledge/Technical Skill training for AGM of TLT and
Pre Production.
5. Effective Managerial skills training for AGM of TLT and Pre Production.
42
LIMITATIONS
1. New competency cannot be identified.
2. Due to the time frame could not study the competency of all departments.
3. The study which I have done is for middle management level employees, the top and
lower management employee study is not done.
4. If information about specific individuals is requested, confidentiality becomes
an important and sometimes problematic issue that must be addressed carefully.
43
CONCLUSION
A competency framework was developed for each job position under the study. There were 5
competencies for each job position. All competencies were common to all departments (Account, TLT &
Pre production, QA, PE, HMNP). A Twenty point scale was developed to rate the competencies and
determine the levels.
It was found that training is required for the all 5 department at every level. The details about the people
who require training is given in the chart.
