Workforce Readiness Atlas

Understand where capability lives; from the organization as a whole to the individual people who hold it.

03 / THE EXPLORATION

Where does capability live, and who holds it?

Explore the organization, compare a team, then meet the people behind its strengths and development gaps.

All organizations, people, capability ratings, and outputs shown here are fictional and illustrative.

Behind the productExplore how the atlas is built

From question to decision

A BI workflow expressed as a focused product.

The implementation follows the same reasoning path as Excel → Power Query → Power BI, while using a web-native interaction model.

  1. 01Fictional source data

    People, departments, roles, assessments, and targets at explicit grains.

  2. 02Capability model

    Relationships connect each person and team to one curated skill hierarchy.

  3. 03Business definitions

    Targets, holder coverage, dependency, risk, readiness, and mentor eligibility.

  4. 04Question-driven views

    One stable treemap, one focused drawer, and a role-level capability fingerprint.

  5. 05Workforce conversation

    A common picture for discussing strengths, gaps, knowledge concentration, and support.

Stable geometry

D3 sizes tiles from fixed skill importance. React changes values and emphasis without moving the hierarchy.

One set of measures

The metrics, skill drawer, radar, and mobile list all derive from the same deterministic calculations.

Honest boundaries

Readiness is a planning aid. A real product would require governed assessments, permissions, and validated taxonomies.

How to read the measures

Targets and holders: proficiency uses a 0–5 scale. Targets are manager-defined for each role or department. Qualified holders meet the active target; required holders are the target headcount, not the total team size.

Readiness: for organizations and departments, average each active skill’s current / target ratio (capped at 100%), then round down. Current is the relevant people’s mean proficiency, rounded to one decimal. Individual readiness instead counts role targets met, divided by role targets, rounded to a percentage.

At risk: more than half the relevant people are below target, or qualified holders are fewer than half the required holders (rounded up). Watch: otherwise, average proficiency is below target or holder coverage is short. Ready means neither shortfall applies. Status uses unrounded averages so display rounding cannot hide a gap.

Consultant contribution: external qualified holders / all qualified holders. No qualified holders means zero coverage, not independence. The dependency indicator counts skills with any qualified consultant contribution.

Mentor coverage: the percentage of non-ready skills with an eligible internal mentor; 100% if there are no gaps. Eligibility requires a recorded mentoring skill and proficiency meeting this scope’s target. Consultants appear separately in the drawer and do not inflate internal mentor coverage. These illustrative measures support a conversation, not an objective assessment of people.
