Leapsome Competency Framework is an HR-focused platform capability designed to help organizations define, visualize, and develop the skills employees need to perform and progress. It enables HR and people teams to build company-wide or team-specific skill frameworks, map skill levels to clear expectations, and surface career pathways so employees understand what “great” looks like at each level. The product connects competencies to performance reviews, goals, instant feedback, and learning workflows, creating an integrated development loop that supports fair assessments and targeted growth. Built-in analytics and progress tracking make it possible to monitor skill development across individuals, teams, and the whole organization, while Leapsome AI can generate a complete competency framework in minutes to accelerate rollout and reduce administrative effort. The framework supports tailoring by role or team, visualization of skill levels, and ongoing measurement to inform performance conversations, career planning, and L&D investments.
