The Assessment and Development Center is a strategic, science-based approach to identifying, measuring, and nurturing key competencies in an organization’s talented managers and employees. This process is more than a test; it is a simulated environment of future management challenges that allows organizations to accurately discover the true potential of their human capital and design a growth and succession path based on objective and reliable data. In this center, we help architect the next generation of leaders in your organization, with a special focus on the board and senior management levels.
By designing specific competency models that are tailored to the structure, culture, and strategic goals of each organization, we provide a framework for accurately identifying, analyzing, and developing the key competencies of managers and board members.
In today’s competitive environment, decisions related to the appointment, promotion, and development of managers should not be based on intuition or past performance. The focus of assessment is a strategic necessity because:
We follow a structured four-step process that ensures transparency, accuracy, and effectiveness at all stages.
Step 1: Architecting a Specific Competency Model This step is the foundation of the entire process. By analyzing your organization’s strategies and interviewing key stakeholders, we design a model of unique competencies that are critical to your organization’s success. Each competency will have a detailed identity, including definitions and behavioral examples.
Step Two: Implementing a Multi-faceted Assessment Center
In this phase, managers are exposed to a series of simulated exercises and scientific assessment tools designed to fit the competency model. These tools provide a 360-degree view of an individual’s capabilities.
Step 3: Integrated analysis and feedback
Our expert assessors integrate and analyze the data from all tools. Then, in a constructive and confidential feedback session, the results of the analysis, strengths, and areas for growth are presented to each participant.
Step 4: Draw an Individual Development Roadmap (IDP)
The end result is the starting point for a purposeful growth path. We work with the manager and the organization to develop an Individual Development Plan (IDP) that includes specific actions, specialized coaching programs, and gamified workshops to transform potential into superior performance.
