In today’s fast-evolving business landscape, identifying and closing gaps in performance, skills, and competencies is no longer optional—it’s a strategic necessity.
Many organizations mistakenly treat Performance Gap Assessment (PGA), Skill Gap Analysis (SGA), and Competency Gap Analysis (CGA) as interchangeable. But each serves a unique purpose:
- PGA uncovers why actual performance isn’t meeting expectations.
- SGA identifies missing technical or functional skills to drive immediate improvements.
- CGA builds a holistic, future-ready workforce by aligning behaviors, leadership capabilities, and long-term strategies.
