Assessing the current and transferrable capabilities of key employees can be a real challenge. Relying on an inside view can only reveal a partial understanding of the situation. The Result: adopting the most efficient action-plans in regard to your key people – whether it is regarding promotion, delay or even firing – when the compromise on certain values threatens the mid/long-term value of your business.
This is where an external assessment and evaluation of key people can make the difference
Un-biased understanding of your context & needs
- Objective understanding of your needs, goals, challenges, intended changes and desired outcomes is essential.
- We work with key stakeholders such as General Managers, HR professionals and/or the other members of your management team to draw a map of the values, abilities and competences to be assessed (both current and future competences are sought for). At this stage, we also agree on project deliverables and communication of the results.
This phase might contain all or some of the following, depending on your goals:
- A Management assessment – focused on competences and potential
- A leadership/soft skills assessment – focused on character, mindset, emotional intelligence and leadership practices
After the assessment stage, we prepare the personalized report comprising:
- Strengths & areas for development
- Fit with the current role; other roles where the fit could be high
- Potential type
- Motivators & drive triggers
- Values and competences fit with the ones chosen as benchmark
- Profile summary
- Benchmarking with K.M. Trust Group Leadership Benchmark® (comparison with 20k+ managers from all continents)
- Suggestions of next steps development/ personalized development plan for the assessed individual
The assessment is ended with debriefing sessions, both with the person in assessment and with the line manager and/or the HR Head.
Potential outcomes:
- training recommendation
- mentoring and/or coaching
