Keys To Success: Competency Part 2


To summarize the first post on competency as one of the keys to success we discussed several points.
  1. Competency is the ability to do something well and to do it consistently.
  2. Competency is measured by others capacity to depend on you.
  3. Competency is about focusing yourself in your strengths.
  4. Competency is mastering the details and getting things 100 percent right.
Let’s look at competency a little further….

Competency: Consistency

In the last post I pointed out that whether you are a self-employed business owner, entrepreneur, solo professional or individual competency is about dependability. You may have all the ability in the world, but if you are not dependable your gifts and talents will be wasted.

Competency whether you are seeking in your life or in small business growth is about consistency. Consistency is developed by doing the ordinary things extraordinarily well.

In fact, when you do the ordinary things extraordinarily well in your organization and life, it allows you to have more time to use your gifts and talents.

Competency: Focus

To demonstrate consistent competency, as we have just pointed out, you must be consistent. Focus is the fuel that drives consistency.

Have your day and life set up for focus. Set up your day to focus on the things you do very well. And, the things that aren’t fun…..allot time for them but don’t mix them, if at all possible, into your time when you are doing the things you enjoy and do well.

Competency: Details

Details are very important. No one says when a product or job doesn’t meet expectation that it was great that it was 95% right. No. That last 5% determines success or failure.

And, I can promise you from my personal coaching practice that it is paying attention to the details in the last 5% that will take you across the finish line and to having a winning product or service.

Competency: Putting It All Together—Implementation

What is generally the most difficult part of any job? It is implementation. Therefore, give it greater attention. You may have a great product but without precise instructions the customer may never get the maximum value.

Or, you have an excellent service but the customer doesn’t realize the full value of what he is receiving because it was never made clear to him.

Implementation is a key to competency or the perception of competency. Get others together who are part of your process. Or, if you are a solo professional ask questions of other to improve your implementation.

Process determines outcome. Create a great process around your product or service. When you do you will increase your odds of achieving a high level of competency and the success you desire.
