Rapid Executive Assessment Package

Our most popular new service package is a rapid, customized approach to assessing the developmental needs of your management team in both technical/business and leadership/management areas. We have found that self-awareness is critical to efforts of building executive communities.

Our approach is unique in that we assess managers not by looking at isolated traits, skills and interests, but by analyzing the dynamic interplay between the manager and his or her work community and organizational setting. We regard our work in executive assessment as a first step in assisting client organizations with the task of building executive community.

Benefits to Managers

Our assessment includes both face-to-face interviews and one-on-one feedback reports that permit each manager to:

a) (short-term) make immediate, positive adjustments to their management skills and style, team contributions and achievement of their short-term business goals through concrete and specific recommendations that emerge from the assessment and

b) (long-term) to have a clear long-term “road map” for specific ways of improving their overall management skills, collaborative methods and leadership capabilities. This road map may include recommendations for management behavior changes, different approaches to team-building and performance management, improved contributions to your firm's leadership team, coaching, mentoring, further management studies in specific areas and directed independent reading.

Benefits to Your Organization

Completion of this project will provide our client organizations with:

1) Highly reliable and customized-to-your-firm feedback for each of the managers who are assessed in this project by providing specific feedback on their individual strengths in key leadership competencies as well as developmental needs;

2) A customized tool and process for coaching and developing your managers;

3) After completion of this project, this same tool can be included as one of the steps to assist you in selecting future managers by predicting success according to your firm’s competency criteria; and

4) Finally, the overall results of this project can be used by your firm’s Training Department to accurately diagnose the exact training needs of your entire management team and thus, plan and deliver management training that precisely matches their needs.

This approach is currently being utilized with great success by clients who are moving toward the “virtual corporation model", technologically-oriented and poised for rapid growth in emerging markets.
