kyvykkyyksien

Kyvykkyyksien is a Finnish term referring to sets of capabilities or competencies possessed by an entity, such as a person, a team, or an organization. The base noun kyvykkyys denotes the ability to perform a task, combining knowledge, skills, and capacities. Kyvykkyyksien, the genitive plural form, is used when speaking about multiple capabilities or the collection of capabilities held or required by someone or something.

In organizational and management discourse, kyvykkyydet are often discussed as the built-in abilities that enable performance. This includes both individual competencies and organizational capabilities, such as routines, processes, technologies, and resources that together allow a group to achieve goals. A related concept is ydinki kyvykkyydet or core competencies, the essential capabilities that provide competitive advantage. Another important term is dynaamiset kyvykkyydet, or dynamic capabilities, referring to the ability to adapt, renew, and reconfigure capabilities in changing environments.

Kyvykkyyksien are assessed and developed through education, training, and talent management, as well as through organizational development and strategic planning. In practice, distinctions between kyvykkyydet, taidot (skills), and competencies can vary by field, leading to different measurement approaches and language choices. The term is widely used in Finnish business, human resources, and higher education literature to describe both current abilities and the potential to acquire new ones.
