On our today’s Q&A we’ll have a conversation about how to do a competency gaps analysis and more importantly show also how to close these kinds of gaps in your projects, teams, and organization. Let’s figure out why it is important to distinguish between skills and competencies, how you balance between these attributes, and how virtual teams can actually help you to close gaps when they appear right away and not after months of analyzing and looking for the right talent.
