Abstract: A dashboard is developed to assess the ability of workers in an organization to accomplish one or more goals of the organization. The dashboard permits defining one or more competencies employees in the organization are required to have, and defining a skill set for each competency. Each skill set has one or more skills the employees are required to have to carry out each competency. Each skill under each competency for each employee is rated according to degree of experience in that skill. A discrete skill level in each competency for each of the employees is determined or calculated from the above rating information. Once the rating information is processed, the information can be instantaneously displayed in various viewing formats to give a snapshot look at the breadth of skill in the organization.
