Building a Culture of Excellence with Workforce Analytics
Ask any leader what makes an employee a success and you’re likely to get responses such as:
- Team player
- Poise under pressure
- Responsiveness
- Persistence
- Adaptability
- Initiative
Now ask yourself: What do these have in common? They’re all personality characteristics.
Finding and keeping the best talent today hinges on identifying those key talent characteristics that lead to employees performing successfully. Today, up to 70% of organizations (up from 30-40% just five years ago) are using assessments to measure skills, behaviors, cognitive ability and other workforce data that predict and influence employee success (Bersin) and 75% of best-in-class organizations directly attribute changes in revenue or profitability to their assessment strategies (Aberdeen 2013).
But with so many assessments to consider, it can be challenging to identify the right solution that will deliver real results for your environment and circumstances. To help cut through this complexity, we’ve put together a list of 10 questions that will help you choose the assessment that’s best suited for your needs and business.
