What Is a Skill Will Matrix?
The Skill Will Matrix compares willingness to perform a task to the amount of skill the employee has to perform the task well. The matrix is plotted on a 2×2 quadrant. Each quadrant indicates how the manager should deal with or manage employees who fall into that specific quadrant.
How to Use the Skill Will Matrix?
- Once you identify the employees, assess their skill levels, performance and willingness to get work done.
- For the analysis, you can use a Creately skill will matrix template or quickly create one using Creately block diagram maker.
- A person who has both high skill and will, is someone with experience. The best managing style for them is to set challenging goals, and continuously motivate them while closely monitoring their progress.
- For an employee who has the necessary skills but a low will need to be coached properly. Motivate them and instill confidence necessary to finish their work.
- With employees who fit into the low skill and high will category, try supporting them. Assist them with decision-making and performing their tasks.
- If an employee has low skills and shows a lack of willingness, the role of the manager is to supervise and inspire them at the same time.
- Based on the evaluation, alter your management style when dealing with employees that belong to the different quadrants of the skill will matrix.
- If you wish to share the skill and will matrix with the employees or other stakeholders, you can easily embed it in your intranet, website or your Wiki pages using the Creately Viewer.
- Now, compare yourself to your biggest competitors. What skills, positions or departments do you lack? This will help you analyze their plans for the future and what you are missing.
- Identify key players in your industry and gather information on them. This will help you create a database of potential candidates and compare them and build early relationships with them.
