Manage competence clusters

A competence cluster is a grouping of similar competences. A competence can be part of one or more clusters.

Example: 

For example, the Enterprising cluster consists of the Customer Oriented, Networking, Entrepreneurship, Result Oriented, and Vision competences. The Customer Oriented competence can also be a part of the Performance and Environment, Communication, and People and their emotions clusters.

You determine yourself how you will use the competence clusters. You can, for example, use the rule that roles of each competence cluster must contain at least one competence. The Competence dictionary (Profit) report is laid out based on competence clusters.

If you have copied supplied Profit competences during the initialisation, the clusters are already available with the related competences.
