The following unit covers the management of Competencies and Libraries from the Job Description Manager (JDM), also known as Families and Roles and we will explore the Talent Intelligence Hub (TIH) as well. The TIH is the newest platform framework which includes several unique capabilities.
The following screenshot provides a high level overview of the different platform frameworks that exist in the SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite that help to manage this type of content.
Note
Since there are several considerations to complete the migration from either Job Description Manager, Job Profile Builder or Center of Capabilities to the TIH framework, this topic will be revisited in future releases. More information about the migration steps and capabilities of TIH can be found in the following guide: Using Talent Intelligence Hub
Competencies
Competencies are the basic abilities employees must have in order to perform their role successfully within the organization. They are observable, measurable, and critical to successful individual and company performance. There are two broad categories of competencies.
Competency Categories
| Competency Category | Description |
|---|---|
| Core Competencies | Competencies that are core to the organization. The Performance Form and 360 Review Forms can be configured to pull these competencies for all employees. |
| Job-Specific Competencies | Competencies that are specific to the role or job of the employee. Competencies can be mapped to the role and job code of the employee and dynamically displayed on an individual’s Performance and 360 Review Forms. |
