Data Set Combinations and their Interpretation
Self Assessment and Improvement
The chart illustrates the correlation between individuals self-assessed confidence (grey bar) and demonstratable competence (blue + green bar) relating to specific topics. The green bar (if present) is an extension of the blue and indicates the amount of improvement seen from reassessments.
A close correlation between confidence and competency is ideal, whereas a significant discrepancy where confidence is high, and competence low represents a risk to an organization.
Mentoring and guidance from senior leadership is strongly suggested if personnel predominantly show ‘Cumulative Perception’ (perceived-confidence) that is greater than ‘Cumulative Results’ (measurable competence).
Corporate Targets and Improvement

The green bar (if present) is an extension of the blue and indicates the amount of improvement seen from reassessments. The light blue band indicates the target range for an organizations average cumulative results.
Organization leadership typically desire to see workforce average results that fall in the target range (mid comprehension to mid application.
Attention is required anytime the average results of participating personnel (total bar length) do not extending into organization target area (light blue).

Organization leadership typically desire to see workforce average results that match or exceeded the industry average.
Attention is desired if the average results of participating personnel (total bar length) is less than the correlating industry average.
Highest Results and Improvement
