What Clients Are Saying


  • Testi-Photo

    In an environment where everyone is quick to tell you the value of competency models, Workitect is one of the few organizations that actually teach a repeatable process for building customized models.

    Shannon Johnson / Blue Cross Blue Shield

  • Testi-Photo

    Workitect taught us how to build effective competency models. More importantly, they shared with us ways to use the models. We established hiring and selection criteria, created effective training and development courses, and developed unique incentive reward programs. If you want to learn to internalize the processes of competency modeling, you can't pick a better organization to show you how.

    Walter Hogan / Corporate Manager, Human Resource Development, Cable & Wireless Communications

  • Testi-Photo

    Workitect's competency modeling process gave us a solid foundation to select and develop high performing branch managers and customer service reps. Their consultants worked well with all levels - from executive to front-line employees. They were professional, easy to work with, and good at sharing their expertise and organizational insight with us.
