Research Competency Matrix: Mapping Team Growth
A competency matrix maps craft and human skills against career stages to reveal gaps. Use it to plan hiring and align capabilities with organizational needs. The footgun is treating it as a rigid checklist instead of a customizable reflection tool.
A research competency matrix maps the two dimensions of researcher growth—craft skills that execute the work and human skills that make it land—against career stages to reveal where your team stands. Born from the ResearchOps Community, it replaces generic job ladders with a bottom-up, customizable inventory of practices that ladder up toward organizational value. Use it to scope projects, build hiring profiles, and set realistic development goals.
