In business today it is becoming increasingly more difficult to make the "correct" selection, promotion and developmental decisions. The costs, both financial and psychological, of a poor fit between the individual and the job can be significant - both to the organization and to the individual. Psychological Assessments provide information to companies to help in the decision-making process.

Psychological Assessments are offered for:

• Selection and Hiring
• Executive Development
• Management Development
• Career Development and Planning
• Career/Vocational Profiling
• Training Needs Identification
• Succession Planning

The Psychological Assessment begins with a thorough understanding of the requirements of the assessment. Assessments for selection and hiring include a job analysis to ensure that the specific dimensions/competencies are understood and assessed.

The Psychological Assessment includes in-depth interviewing and a comprehensive test battery. The psychological instruments administered are valid and reliable.

The Psychological Assessment Feedback includes both verbal and written feedback.

The Psychological Assessment Report provides complete information on the profile of the individual, including strengths and limitations. Most assessment reports also emphasize developmental needs and specific strategies for addressing them. An individual Development Profile can be prepared outlining areas of strength and potential risk related to the individual's growth and development and career track.

Feedback and follow-up development coaching is also available.
