Management Assessment

What is it?

Management Assessment is a proven tailor-made evaluation methodology to assess the leadership competencies of top and middle level managers as well as to benchmark the existing management team of the company against the current market.

Why is it useful?

Management Assessment provides a thorough analysis of each executive’s strengths and weaknesses from an external and objective point of view. That adds considerable value to any decision process as well as serves also as an objective platform for feedback.

When is it needed?

While Management assessment can provide benefits at any time, our experience shows that companies most often ask for this service in following situations:
- Identification of High Potential
- Mergers, Acquisitions & Due diligence
- Unsatisfactory results or key persons leaving the company
- Reorganization
- New CEO
- Filling management vacancies and promotion
- Identification of competence gaps and focus areas for key people training and development
- New strategic development or establishment of new business

How is it performed?

Management Assessment is performed by using a set of professional tools that includes:

Interviews (Structured competency based interviews conducted on a 2:1-basis and carried out by experienced interviewers)

Benchmarking (Comparison of the person against an external standard of recognized leaders of the market)

Reference checking (An investigation of a person’s previous employment history, qualifications, performance and personality using the person’s relevant work related contacts at all levels/ 360°)

Psychometric testing (Measuring the person with well-validated psychometric instruments, developed for business needs, which produces comprehensive and reliable profile)

What is the result?

As a result, the client receives objective and professional evaluation of every single participant and an overview of the management team with our findings and recommendations (whom to keep / re-place, what training is required to keep competitive knowledge, who will be a driver of the cultural/organizational change, who will probably not be able to push your company forward in the way you want him or her to do, etc.).
