TALENT SELECTION
Strategic Alignment with Your Goals
Selecting and hiring the best individual is the key to success in any organization
Not only that, but hiring mistakes are costly, directly impacting productivity, profitability, reputation, and staff morale.
At Insight Business Works, we are experts at:
- interviewing and assessment interpretation
- understanding statistics and test construction
- selection of empirically-validated assessment tools
Plus, as psychologists, we are qualified to utilize a wide range of instruments. We are not limited to a select few that we are certified in, like most executive coaches. This is a huge advantage. Plus, we are not promoting any one particular tool or set of tools!
Examples of Hiring Challenges
New Hire Acclimation
The short list of candidates for an expanding IT department is problematic for management. While credentials of the candidates fit the requirements, serious questions remain about how these potential employees will mesh with the existing IT team. How can management ensure that the new hire will work well with others?
Culture Fit
An ideal management candidate was found for a specialized and vital leadership position in a rural health care system. Although a charismatic individual inspired staff, the CEO wonders if this leader will be aligned with the hospital’s vision or be too much of a loose cannon?
Diversity
A closely held family company can no longer ignore diversity–or lack of it–at the management level. How does this successful company address diversity without sacrificing a corporate culture fundamental to its identity?
Assessment Onboarding
With the right person selected, onboard executive coaching can help the new executive acclimate quickly and effectively to bring results.
EEOC compliance is strictly maintained.
