The Magic Formula: How Success Profiles Drive Engagement and Performance

Levin HR Consulting

What if you could unlock higher engagement, better collaboration, and clearer career paths—without adding more processes or complexity? Success Profiles provide a simple yet powerful framework for ensuring employees and leaders align around what truly drives success in their roles.


What are Success Profiles?

Success Profiles are structured frameworks that define the competencies, behaviors, and traits essential for success in a specific role. Unlike traditional job descriptions, which focus on tasks and responsibilities, Success Profiles emphasize how success is achieved, ensuring alignment between individual and organizational goals.

 

How Success Profiles Work–The Process

🔹 Initial Review: The manager and consultant collaborate to review a list of competencies, tailored to the role.

🔹 Manager Selection: The manager selects the 10 most critical competencies that predict success.

🔹 Employee Input: Direct reports review these competencies and highlight the top 5 they believe are most crucial.

🔹 Collaborative Conversations: The manager and employees discuss why these competencies matter, using real-world examples.

🔹 Final Profile Development: Together, they create a clear and actionable Success Profile for the role.
