Profile XT™ – for Succession Planning
How are employees identified for promotion? How are individuals developed for key leadership roles within your organization? How are succession plans and training needs for employees outlined?These critical functions must be done well in order to maintain a vibrant, healthy, high-performing business. But unfortunately, this activity is all too often overlooked, rushed, and inconsistently performed, even in some of the best organizations.
The Profile XT assessment is an objective tool that can be used throughout the organization to insure that excellent employees for promotion or transfer are not over-looked; that key individuals slated for senior positions receive the development and training they need; and that succession planning is an integral part of every manager’s job.
This tool gives managers critical information they need to plan the career progression of their employees. It enables them to identify training needs and it empowers the employee to become more proactive in their own development.
The Profile XT is a state-of-the-art assessment tool that measures 3 key areas: cognitive abilities, behavioral traits and occupational interests. No other assessment tool measures these three dimensions in a way that is statistically valid and can be used to understand future, on-the-job performance.
Develop your leaders now, and for the future.
