Abstract: The dynamic nature of today’s business environment demands a skilled, adaptable, and competent workforce. This study explores the impact of competency mapping on employee performance, satisfaction, and organizational growth.

The primary objective of this research is to examine how competency mapping influences employee skill, knowledge, ability, and behaviour. A structured questionnaire was used to gather data from employees at Nexone Resources India Pvt Ltd. The results indicate that effective competency mapping leads to improved job clarity, better alignment between individual and organizational goals, and increased employee engagement. This study concludes that incorporating competency mapping into HR practices not only boosts individual performance but also contributes significantly to the overall efficiency and competitiveness of the organization.
