Re: TechCom skills competency grid or matrix

As I said previously, it's the cost to prevent a good employee from jumping ship 
vs. the cost to hire and train a suitable replacement.  In a market where every 
posting gets 50 applications from senior-level candidates, it's hard to sell 
substantial increases.

As to the question of increases, how do employers currently decide --
not just for tech writers, but more generally? Perhaps that's
something to build on.
