The likelihood of success in both personal and professional situations depends upon knowing your own strengths and weaknesses, knowing what is expected of you, and then being able to adapt accordingly. Understanding your individual competencies, and those of others, is a necessary step to building successful relationships.

Job
performance is a function of aptitude, ability, and
proficiency. Aptitude determines the suitability of an
individual for a role; ability determines their expected
quality of performance for an activity; and proficiency
defines their level of competence.
Competence is characterized by both knowledge and skills.
Every individual has three competency areas to varying
degrees:
- Personal
- Professional/technical
- Enterpriship (entrepreneurship, leadership, management)
Personal competencies...
Personal competencies are about who we are, and have both intra-personal and inter-personal components. Intra-personal competencies are about the self. They include the basics of anticipation, aptitude, comprehension, deliberation, preferences, and stress tolerance. Inter-personal competencies include both oral and written communications, and the ability to build relationships with others.

Professional/technical
competencies...
The terms "professional" and "technical" can be used
broadly or narrowly.
When used broadly, the terms apply to domain knowledge in
subject areas, and the accompanying technical skills.
Subject areas include both arts and sciences disciplines -
business is both an art and a science. Subject areas in
business include: legal, finance, human resources,
information technology, program management, engineering,
operations, and business development. The accompanying
technical skills have mental and physiological
requirements, depending upon subject area.
When used narrowly, the terms apply to occupations.
Professional occupations include accounting, architecture,
consulting, law, marketing, medicine, and sales. Technical
occupations include construction, engineering, and
information technology. These terms are used by government
agencies to classify jobs.
Beware of the subject matter expert - an individual who
appears knowledgeable, but lacks the technical skills to
achieve results. Subject matter experts may do well in
interviews, but do not necessarily perform well on the job.
Hence, it is important to assess the aptitude, ability, and
proficiency of a candidate before hiring, or risk being
fooled.

Enterpriship
competencies...
Enterpriship competencies relate to the disciplines of
entrepreneurship, leadership, and management. These
competencies are distinct from professional competencies
because they apply in both personal and professional life,
and in both community-at-large and workplace settings.
Enterpriship competencies enable value to be earned and
results to be achieved. They include transforming
innovative ideas into value, setting direction that others
will follow, and applying resources to activities to
achieve results.
For example, executive directors of charities are faced
with the need to find innovative ways to raise funds, to
motivate others to contribute, and to manage resources on
tight budgets.
For example, designers of electronic equipment have to find
innovative ways to cram components into devices, be able to
persuade others to use their products, and conserve
resources such as batteries.

Playing
to strengths and accommodating
weaknesses...
When taking on any new responsibility, an individual should
compare their competencies to the expected requirements of
the assignment, identify the gaps, and take steps to close
them accordingly. Competencies can be acquired through
experience and training, if an individual is so motivated.
When building a new relationship, an individual should
compare their competencies to those of the other person,
identify gaps, and explore the synergistic opportunities
from working together. This approach is especially
beneficial in teamwork, where weaknesses in one team member
can be offset by strengths in another.
Inter-personal competencies, and especially effective
communications, are perhaps the most important of all. The
ability to entertain, inform, convince, persuade, and
negotiate with others to get things done is essential -
nothing happens in business without people.
Understanding your individual competencies and those of
others, so as to play your strengths and accommodate your
weaknesses, is essential to success in both personal and
professional relationships.
