Army Talent Attribute Framework: FY23 Annual Update
Abstract
The Army Talent Attribute Framework (ATAF) is a universal, standardized taxonomy of the knowledge, skills, and behaviors (KSBs) required of Army personnel. The ATAF was developed by the Army Research Institute for the Behavioral and Social Sciences (ARI) along with the Army Talent Management Task Force (ATMTF) to inform talent management Army-wide. The ATAF undergoes planned annual review cycles in order to ensure the framework continues to support an up-to-date and effective personnel system. This report describes the FY23 refinements made to the ATAF. Chief among these revisions was the development of KSB descriptions aimed at operational users, which can be used alongside the scientific definitions to increase usability. One KSB was renamed for clarity while two KSBs were consolidated into a single KSB, bringing the total KSBs in the ATAF to 194. Talent Domain definitions were also created. This report provides the final Talent Domain definitions and KSB user descriptions developed this review cycle.
