Identify the firm's collective capability gaps
Judges which capabilities the team collectively is short on by comparing the bench's skills against the pipeline of work the firm is winning.
In / outBench skill inventory + work pipeline + past project strain signals → prioritised list of firm-level capability gaps worth investing in
You might say…
“We keep sending the same people to every hard problem because no one else can do it. This shows me where that bottleneck actually lives.”
What it does
From the spread of skills across the bench, the pipeline of work the firm is winning, and where projects strain, judge which capabilities the team-as-a-whole is short on and which are worth investing to build. Used periodically (or when planning a learning cycle) to aim development at real gaps rather than fashionable topics.
Trigger: Use periodically or before planning a learning cycle to target development at real capacity gaps.
