Management Assessment
Some of the toughest decisions made within an organisation involve
the recruitment, promotion, development and counselling of key
personnel.
Too often these decisions are made with a
maximum
of uncertainty and a great deal of hoping. The cost of error
is too great for both the individual and the organisation to
take chances based on track record or interviews alone.
These are useful but incomplete. Past performance in a technical speciality is not in itself predictive of future managerial performance. Further more are personal styles and personalities compatible with the needs of the organisaiton.. Career objectives need to be probed; leadership qualities assessed and future development needs identified. All of which requires a formal, structured and transparent process to ensure fairness.
How Vital Resources fills the need
Through intensive discussions with both superiors and peers
we determine the profile of the person required for the job.
Then, we will help you determine: -
  |
How driven is the candidate? Will they
stretch themselves for achievement? |
|
|
|
How much pressure can they work under and
what impact does it have on their performance. |
|
|
|
Are they overview or detail orientated.
Long range or short term? |
|
|
|
Can they make decisions? Will the individual
operate independently, assertively and take intellectual
risks? |
|
|
|
How will they relate to superiors, peers
and subordinates? |
|
|
|
What level of self-confidence and maturity
does the individual possess? |
From the information provided using the above the process
significantly increases the effectiveness
and reduces the
cost of recruitment and promotion.
The identification of key
competencies for the individual's development increases success
for
the job incumbents and therefore the success
of the organisation.
Debriefing leads to agreement on specific steps
to achieve
optimum job performance and a commitment to take the necessary
actions to
make it happen.
Because of Vital Resources 20 years experience
in organisation consulting, performance management, and managerial
/ leadership training we can assess individuals in terms of
the real organisational climate not academic theories.
