The assessment process can serve as the foundation for the creation of detailed and targeted action plans, and related on-boarding processes, for an individual’s continued professional growth.
Examples include:
- integrating a newly hired employee that has been recently assessed
- identifying emerging talent in the organization and subsequently accelerating their professional development
- auditing a current senior management team and supporting targeted professional growth
This process frequently makes use of self-report assessment tools, in-depth interviews, as well as multi-rater feedback surveys, 360-degree questionnaires. The use of 360-degree feedback processes provides a rich picture of performance feedback and range of perceptions from those that know the assessment participant best: boss, direct reports, colleagues, peers, and even clients.

Emphasis is placed on providing constructive feedback to increase the assessment participant’s self-awareness and identifying potential blind spots. At the same time, they are designed to provide client organizations with the means to manage future human resource needs and sustain competencies over time.
