Many times we come across organizations interested in designing career management or career progression framework, tool or system. From my experience there are three factors that are a MUST CONSIDER for success of any such systems. In no order of importance they are.
a) What the individual wants (Aspiration)
b) What the individual brings to the table (Capability or Competency)
c) What the organization needs (Need)
If you have an imbalance or misalignment between these three you are bound to fail.
For simplicity call them ACN.
The three need to be in alignment for any kind of successful program you want to drive. If you have identified A and C but there is no N then for the organization there is no meaning to invest in the same.
Similarly if individual wants A and there is N but no C then it is a decision about whether to Train and Build and at what Cost.
Organization may have the N and individual the C but the individual has a different A then you run the risk of losing the employee so look for other individuals with the same A.
Quite Simple in Hindsight Isn't It.
