Where they fall short
- Builds Repeatable Ways of Working −20 pts
There is no evidence in the CV of the candidate creating a template, tool, operating method, or documentation system that was adopted or reused by others.
- Evidence-Led Decisions −16 pts
The CV mentions conducting analyses and preparing memos, but there is no evidence of a decision being changed, stopped, or prioritized based on operational or customer data, nor what happened after such a decision.
- Carries Ambiguous Problems Through to Closure −16 pts
The CV lists multi-stakeholder coordination in event management and relief volunteering, but lacks evidence of driving a messy cross-functional workplace problem or failure through resolution and post-fix follow-up.
