Competence

Organizations must have the capability to meet changing needs. In current parlance this is often expressed in terms of competences - skills, knowledge and abilities. These are qualities possessed by the people who work for those organizations. Competences can be brought into businesses through the recruitment of skilled individuals. They can also be developed within existing people by investing in training, education and experiential programmes.
