When they do, the competencies are very broad (e.g., communication skills, decision making) and provide limited value to a manager or employee trying to use the competency information to make a decision.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What multipurpose uses do you make of competency models and what are the limitations you experience with the competency models you use?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3151436120357762596-5040241194234686058?l=appliedskillsknowledge.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://appliedskillsknowledge.blogspot.com/feeds/5040241194234686058/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://appliedskillsknowledge.blogspot.com/2009/08/limitations-to-todays-competency-models.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3151436120357762596/posts/default/5040241194234686058'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3151436120357762596/posts/default/5040241194234686058'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://appliedskillsknowledge.blogspot.com/2009/08/limitations-to-todays-competency-models.html' title='Limitations to Today&apos;s Competency Models'/><author><name>Paul</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09926506634437376866</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='13' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_GE0KRSuZmig/SdEn6BeTX_I/AAAAAAAAAA8/zEGQcHLe39I/S220/logo_woslogan.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3151436120357762596.post-3942732130671261350</id><published>2009-08-03T10:05:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2009-08-03T10:05:32.769-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Welcome to the AS&amp;K Blog!</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;Hello and thank you for visiting AS&amp;amp;K's official blog!
