Skills Management as a Competitive Advantage
On November 11, 2026, our article on skills management was published in manage it. Alexander Friesen, Managing Director of HCM Consultant Group, explains how companies can connect their employees’ skills with business requirements and operational decisions.
Whether in production, project staffing or shift planning, having the required skills available at the right time matters. The article outlines the shared framework that business functions and HR need, and how skills data can support planning and management systems.
Another focus is getting started with a clearly defined pilot. A specific business challenge allows companies to test which skills are needed, how to assess them reliably and how they can support better decisions. Two diagrams illustrate the connections and the implementation approach.
The original article in manage it is available in German only.
