|
| | Atos Origin has rolled out a Global Capability Model (GCM) that provides a standardised, transparent employee framework for its 46,000 staff across 40 countries.
The GCM matrix lets its staff plot their own career path within the company, comparing their current skills and competencies with those of a desired position. This enables them to see | |
| |
| | progression. Once these skills are identified, employees can request the appropriate training from the HR department to bridge the skills gap and progress in his or her career.
Every IT role in the company has been categorised using the Industry Structure Model version 3 (ISM-3) standard, meaning Atos Origin can instantly compare the skills of | |

The GCM also | |
