Assessment & Profiling Solutions
Our behavioural assessment solutions are designed to catch individuals doing the right thing and generate objective, data-driven behavioural profiles.
We work with you to deconstruct competencies and behaviours, to define what they look like in action, in the context of your organisation. After building the behaviour dictionary, we design experiential simulations, challenges and group-working projects that create opportunities for candidates to demonstrate your required behaviours.
We increase objectivity by eliminating ratings. Instead we use binary scoring, with multiple assessors to create objective, yet ranked scores.This allows us to build holistic, strength-based, objective candidate and cohort profiles.
