Competencies
Whether the type of development you envision for the employee is to help her or him improve past performance, enhance current capabilities, expose the employee to skills needed in the future, or simply provide enrichment opportunities that make the current job more interesting, fun, or meaningful, what you will probably focus on developing are competencies. Competencies areobservable and measurable knowledges, abilities, skills, and behaviors that must be applied to achieve results aligned with the goals of the organization.
You may select whatever competencies you feel are most important to develop and list them into your IDP.Competencies are fairly broad. You may find that, in addition to including the definition in the IDP, you will want to include some sub-tasks, or behavioral indicators, to help clarify what exactly you want the employee to develop. This is all stated in the "Development Goal." Once this is laid out, determining the purpose and method/activity for accomplishing it will be easier.
