Behavioural Competencies

Behavioural Competencies provide a common language and frame of reference for attracting, retaining, developing and recognizing the best talent. They were identified through a series of interviews with McGill senior management, staff focus groups and benchmarking research, as the most vital behavioural competencies for the continuous growth of our institution:

  • Change Agility
  • Resourcefulness
  • Teaming
  • Managerial Courage
  • Self-Awareness and Management
  • Client Service Orientation
  • Performance Orientation

Expected proficiency levels have been linked to job grades according to the specific job family (HRM, IST, ADM, etc.) and level (M1, M2, M3, M4).


Note: To confirm your grade, log into Workday, access your “Personal Information” and view “About Me” to find your Job Profile Information.


The following resources have been developed to help supervisors apply the Behavioural Competencies as well as coach employees and ensure effective talent management
