Initially, please install the addon add-on "Skills-Radar for Jira" via Atlassian Marketplace .and proceed step-wise as described below:
- Determine your requirements with respect to a usable list/taxonomy of skills
option 1: create a new custom field of type "Skill" per specified skill as Jira administrator and assign suitable screens
- Determine a set of suitable profiles each having a set of skills including their minimum characteristics
option 2: create a suitable set of profiles. Each profile consists of a set of skills, already existing and re-used or new additional skills (alternative to the creation of skill-custom fields (see above), you can do that as part of creation of profiles) - Each user has got the option to fill out her/his own current skill characteristic within their user profile (skills & profiles)
On your personal page of "Skills & Proficiencies", each user can maintain her/his skills and level of proficiency as percentage on tab "my Skills":
On next tab "my Profiles", each user may compare own skill set with defined reference profiles or select option "automatic determining best fitting profile" for automatic matching:
Resulting e.g. in a skills-radar like the following one after commit via "apply" button at the bottom of the page:
Finally, on tab "my Personality Type", each user can excercize a personality test by answering a couple of questions (just click on answer A or B, which fits as best for the user) - Specify the necessary skills and their minimum characteristic per issue/taskcharacteristics per issue
If the necessary skills are not displayed for your issue, please ask your jira-administrator to assign the existing skills to the related edit-screen and/or create the missing skills (see topic #1, above)
- Assign by skill: automatically get a proposal proposals of best matching users based on the required skills for that issue/task and the maintained/available user skills
...
Click on the link "assign by skill" and you will see a list of all employees configured as "assignable users" of the project on which the process is based, divided into employees with granted data sharing and without them. Employees who have been released are sorted automatically. A "best match" procedure is used as a sorting criterion with regard to the minimum requirements of the relevant transaction. The top 5 of this list are visualized graphically by default. By un/selecting the checkbox in front of each employee you can adjust this as you wish and the skills radar updates itself automatically. In addition to the degree of coverage of the skills and their aggregated total number, the personality type is also displayed if this was previously determined by the employee during the integrated test. With the same technical skills, this serves to make decisions with regard to the typical personality/character of the employees (not everyone is in ideal hands in every project environment: with optimized staffing, the resulting team performance is significantly better and usually leads to fewer frictional losses).
Optionally, you can also search for employees
