MuchSkills Services - Create a skills taxonomy

How it works

Our experts will help you created a bespoke skills taxonomy to your unique business needs

Here is what a project looks like:

Step 1

Skills workshop

Together with you, we identify the roles, skills, certifications and competences needed to satisfy current and future business objectives.

Step 2

Creating the skills taxonomy

Based on your specifications, we iterate & develop a skills taxonomy that satisfies each role, covering both technical & soft skills.

Step 3

Implementation in MuchSkills

We will deploy all roles and skills into the MuchSkills skills management platform. During staggered lunch-and-learn sessions, we walk through how employees can maximise their skills mapping experience.

2. Staffing choices make or break projects

Nearly 2 out of 3 projects are not fully successful because of poor staffing choices, according to the Chaos Report (2020).

3. There is a strong link between efficient skills management, employee engagement and productivity

Firms that match their employees to the jobs most suitable to their skills profiles are more productive, and their ability to do so depends on the quality and experience of their management. (Source: Centre for Economic Policy Research - CEPR – 2022)

Encouraging employers to make the most of their employees’ skills can improve productivity, reduce inequality, and contribute to economic growth. (Source: Better Use of Skills in the Workplace report, by OECD and the University of Warwick Institute for Employment Research – 2017)

4. Increased employee engagement leads to increased productivity

Productivity among highly engaged teams is 14% higher than that of teams with the lowest engagement. Employees who are not engaged cost their company the equivalent of 18% of their annual salary. (Source: Gallup – 2020)

Highly engaged teams deliver 14% higher productivity, up to 18% higher sales productivity, and 23% higher profitability compared to
low-engagement teams. (Source: Gallup)
