What Is Skill Matrix?
A skill matrix is a visual technique of mapping skills, qualifications and levels of proficiency of employees in terms of role and team. It assists organizations in determining areas of strong performance, skills development areas, training requirements, and resource sources. Skill matrices facilitate workforce planning, talent development, succession planning and project allocation. The HR teams usually refresh the matrix on a regular basis to make sure that the skills are well reflected. It helps managers to allocate work in a better way and create a specific learning program to enhance the efficiency of operations and the ability of a team.
