ASSESS - Establish Objective Baseline

We establish a skill and behavioral baseline to provide objective feedback about competency gaps and needed changes. We use standardized assessment tools in concert with structured interviews to assess knowledge,
skill sets, leadership capability, communication style, approach to conflict, team orientation, and learning agility.

We offer the following assessment solutions that provide objective baseline data for individuals, teams, and organizations:

360 Degree Feedback

Our 360 degree feedback tools provide rich information on an individual’s key leadership capabilities as viewed from multiple perspectives.  We offer highly reliable, multi-rater instruments that provide comprehensive and structured feedback as assessed by managers, direct reports, peers, customers, and the individual themselves.  Administered by a certified 360 degree feedback coach.

Standardized Assessments

We utilize a battery of highly reliable leadership assessment tools to provide structured feedback on leadership style, emotional intelligence, approach to conflict, team orientation, communication style, personality type, and cognitive ability. Utilizing these tools leads to measurable increases in self-awareness and awareness of how individual behaviors positively or negatively affect group performance. Administered by a certified professional.

Team Assessments

These tools provide structured feedback on team dynamics as well as individual capabilities.  Using team assessments to enhance group dynamics results in:  higher performance, less need for formal leadership, deeper commitment, more collaboration, higher trust, and improved conflict management.  Administered by a certified professional.

Structured Interviews

Behavioral-based, structured interviews with key constituents in the organization (including the individual being assessed) are an efficient and cost-effective way to obtain specific developmental feedback on individual performance and behaviors.  Interview feedback is collected, analyzed, and reported back to the individual so that a development action plan can be created.

Organizational Analysis

We offer a comprehensive review of the human performance systems in your organization by analyzing the strategic plan, organizational culture, productivity metrics, and talent management systems (recruitment and selection; performance management; compensation and rewards; promotion and succession, learning and development).  This information provides key insights into competitiveness and efficiency in order to best manage changes in organizational behavior and better position the business to execute the strategic plan.
