One of the biggest failings of many corporate competency frameworks is a lack of engagement with employees and managers. This is often due to lack of engagement with the ground truth of people’s work during the development of the model and a misalignment of goals around what these models should be used for. Try a bottom up approach to competency model development.

Apart from the new name—Ibbaka Talio—in the 14.6 release, we have included a new user management feature for corporate users. In addition, we have also opened the skill coverage tool along with the new Skill Bars, Skill and Learning Resources Cards and a detailed SkillRank™ and experience for each skill.

SkillRank is how Ibbaka estimates a person’s level of expertise on a specific skill. Bayesian methods are used to estimate both competence and our confidence in the evidence. Various forms of evidence are used to estimate expertise of which the most important are social proof.
