Hi there, is there any way to add more skills and more team member names on the purchased version? It can only accommodate 20 but I needed 50 slots. I hope you can see my comment. I’ve also emailed you. Thanks
Hi Guys! Just to let you know. **Version2** of the advanced skills and training matrix is now avialable. Watch the video here: ua-cam.com/video/ci54PsxxNKQ/v-deo.html and download the file here: excelskillsmatrix.com
Amazing solution - we use this to tool to upskill our teams. Its a really simple way to capture and show all information in relation to skills and what targets are set for each individual.
Thanks for you positive engagement guys - have a great day and please do let us know if there is anything we can help with. Take care, Alex.
Really helpful. This will assist me in managing a training skills analysis moving forwards. Highly recommend for others. Thank you.
Thanks for the positive engagement Aly - if there is anything we can help with please reach out to us 🙂
I like how the visual summarize the performance.
Thank you so much for the wonderful feedback. If you like this, then you'll love version 2 available here: ua-cam.com/video/ci54PsxxNKQ/v-deo.htmlsi=InDd2X_dVEO8CGWR In version two we create automated 'Employee Development' roadmap charts that generate automatically from the main skills matrix and can be shared directly with your employees without disclosing the skills of other team members. It took us a year to build and you can download it here: excelskillsmatrix.com/
Very nice video that you give the color coding system to understand the capability of the employees
Thank you for the great feedback. It’s always appreciated. I hope you enjoy the solution and that it helps to develop the capability of your team. Take care, Alex
This is the best template I have ever seen to track skills. How do you measure the capability score such as 2, 3 & also how do you propose that we assess the progress?
Good Morning @icemangrins - thank you for your excellent feedback. Within the template there is a basic 'capability policy' which outlines what is meant by level 1,2,3 and so on. You can change this to your needs. What we find works really well is the capability policy outlined on upleashed.com website (go to their home page and scroll down towards the bottom) - this will help to remove any ambiguity and make the scoring objective. In relation to tracking progress, you can do this by locking in snap shots of the spreadsheet to review over time. We have created a version2, which provides automated 'development roadmaps' at the individual level - i think you'll find this will better suit your needs - you can download it here: excelskillsmatrix.com - if you have any questions please reach out to me alexms@ability6.com - i'm here to help. Have a great day and thank you again for taking the time to reach out to us.

I think this is great and very useful. I wonder how many companies with say, over 50 employees utilize a skills matrix. I was actually looking for a qualification matrix that could provide me information on fellow employees experience as I move towards building internal continuous improvement teams and ended up here in my search.
Hi Kirk, thank you for your email. We have a solution for you. If you manage more than 20 people per team/function or manage multiple teams you can use the cloud-based solution which is unlimited - you can access the solution free for 30 days here: app.ability6.com/ - thank you for your positive engagement, its valued and appreciated. Take care, Alex.
This is absolutely brilliant! I would love to learn how to create this kind of spreadsheet bc I'm not advanced in excel. 3:40 Are the expectations automatically generated in the report? How does this section work?
Hi Siphesihle - thank you for your message and kind comments. We've put many many hours into developing this template to help professionals like yourself identify training opportunties and improve team capability. The expections (targets) are a count of all level 3 or above (e.g capable). So if an individual is level 2 for 10 skills and you set a target for the individual to reach level 3 for all 10 tasks then the expectation would be -10. As the individuals current capability improves tasks by task up to level 3> then this number will go down (this is evidencing that the skills gap is closing and the individual is improving their knowledge and capability. Please do share this solution with your professional network - it will help us out enourmously to develop the next version. Have a great week :-)
Really great way to assess capability. Do you any research which suggests the idea skills that an employee should be measured on ?
Great point Pradnya, thank you for your engagement and brilliant point. If anyone requires help populating the 'required / desired skills' for their team please reach out to me alexms@ability6.com, I would be more than happy to help. There won't be any charge for the initial help / guidance. Have a great day all. Alex.
Hi there please can you help me understand on how to calculate the current skill capability and Target skill capability mentioned at the bottom of you template.?
Good Morning Joshua - thank you for your message. Please message me at alexms@ability6.com and I’ll be able to help you. Please let me know which version of our solution you are using and list all your questions. We’ll be happy to help. Thank you, have a great day, Alex
Is there anyway to add team members up to 100+ employees?
I didn't hear it addressed directly in the video but I think you also need some rather concrete and explicit thresholds at which you can say a person has become "proficient" or "masterful" at a given skill. This is a very subjective decision and it can create stress on a team if it's not handled carefully.
Hi Chris, thanks for your message. You are 100% right. Having a clear, unambiguous capability policy is essential. With the matrix we include a default summary, akin to what is shown on this page www.upleashed.com - scroll down to capability policy. This makes the stage of development clear so that anyone rating (individual or team leader) would come to the same conclusion. It’s also important to consider that skills degrade if not regularly performed and that external factors such as industry changes, regulatory changes etc can impact how the process or skills works and therefore the capability level too will be impacted. It’s an amazing space to work in and the key is to continually develop your team members, providing the right opportunities and tools for success. Great to have your engagement on this post Chris. If you want to discuss more over a virtual coffee drop me as message alexms@ability6.com - have a great day!
Also check this out Chris 👍 you’ll love it: ua-cam.com/video/HeZpfoRGarE/v-deo.htmlsi=zAPPoGxLSodVxMdW
This is great! I have a question on some of the formulas though. There's a whited-out section that feeds into the visible formulas. One of them is the "where a score exists (cur)" which has a formula that starts with: "=IF(G24="",0,IF(G24="X",0,4))+IF(G27="",0,IF(G27="X",0,4))+and so on..." My question is why are we using 4 in this formula? Is it because there are only 4 capability levels?
Hi Danielle, Thank you for your insightful question. It's fantastic we could discuss this in detail via email. For anyone else tuning into this thread, Danielle's inquiry sheds light on the significance of having a clear and objective capability policy. By understanding and applying an objective framework, like the detailed skill ratings we've outlined, teams can significantly reduce ambiguity in capability assessments. This approach ensures that capability development is aligned with strategic objectives, allowing for precise identification of areas for improvement and the necessary steps to advance. Your engagement with this topic highlights the importance of clear communication and structured progression within capability development efforts. For a deeper dive into how we can make capability policies more objective and less subjective, I've shared a new version of our Skills Matrix which offers further insights. Please visit this link: upleashed.com/skills-matrix/ - thanks 👍👍 #skillsmatrix #excelskillsmatrix #capabilitypolicy #capabilityframework
This is cool and very helpful. however, when I tried to calculate, say, Krish Howells's Target Capability score, the result is far from what is shown in the table.

Amazing template! I have a question. Where does the score come from? If it from the manager, how do you ensure that you're able to assess them objectively? And how often do you monitor them? Thank you in advance!
Dear Alan,
Thank you for your thoughtful questions and the positive feedback. I appreciate the time and effort you've invested in reaching out to us.
In response to your query, the template you're referring to incorporates a comprehensive scoring algorithm. This includes pre-defined rating levels assigned to each employee based on their specific skills and competencies. These levels are as follows:
'x' indicates an exemption from learning a particular skill
'1' signifies the employee is not yet fully capable but is required to be skilled
'2' denotes some capability, with training underway
'3' means the employee is capable and training is complete
'4' implies the employee is an expert and is capable of training others
These ratings are each associated with a percentage weighting, as such: 'x' is exempt from the algorithm, '1' is 25%, '2' is 50%, '3' is 75%, and '4' is 100%. The algorithm automatically calculates the summary scoring for each individual, the team score, as well as the difference between the current and target scores.
With respect to your question about 'objective' scoring, this is accomplished by simultaneously applying a well-defined 'capability framework'. This framework outlines the specific objectives required to achieve each rating level. For instance, a rating level '2' might be defined as having completed more than 75% of the required training, with the ability to independently perform the task, but evidence of consistent quality and productivity is not yet established. All complex output at this level would require checking and verification. By having these precise descriptions for each rating level, you can be assured that the scores are objective, with no room for subjectivity or bias.
We're more than willing to assist you in implementing all the above. If you need our help, please don't hesitate to get in touch with me at alexms@ability6.com.
Once again, thank you, Alan, for your insightful questions and positive feedback. Your participation in our online community is highly valued.

how to compute the current skill capability and target skill capability per staff?
Hi Mike. Thanks for your message. The scores are calculated based on 1 = 25%, 2 = 50%, 3 = 75% and 4 = 100%. When you score an individual against multiple skills, the excel file will automatically calculate the 'overall' score. So for example if an individual is required to be capable in 5 skills and their scores are 1,2,2,3,2 then the overall score will be the average of these, so Average(25%,50%,50%,75%,25%) = 45% overall score. When you then set upskill targets, say for example you would like the individual to be level 3 at everything, then the average score will be 75% and the system will show you the 'skills gap' of 30%. All of the calculations are done automatically for you in this template. You may also be interested in version2 which now includes an individual summary as well as the team summary - you can check that out here: ua-cam.com/video/ci54PsxxNKQ/v-deo.html or you can download it here: excelskillsmatrix.com/ - thanks again Mike, I hope I've answered your question ok, however please do let me know if there is anything else we can help with.
