Implementing Executive Assessment for a Global Tech Firm

Diagnosis of situation: A leading global tech firm faced challenges in their senior management hiring. Despite rigorous traditional interviews, they had several leadership misfits in the past, leading to decreased morale and a noticeable dent in company growth. Relations between the main European office and the U.S. division were strained. Retaining these Sales Directors, as well as their top-performing members, was crucial. 

 

Implementation: The company collaborated with a specialized assessment firm to restructure its leadership hiring process. This involved:

 

  • Initial Consultation: The assessment firm held intensive meetings with the client to comprehend their unique leadership requirements, corporate culture, and strategic goals.
  • Psychometric Testing: Candidates shortlisted for senior roles underwent thorough psychometric evaluations, determining their psychological alignment with the company’s ethos.
  • Specialized Interviews: Post-testing, the assessment firm designed bespoke interviews, targeting key areas highlighted by the psychometric results.
  • Detailed Reporting: After the interviews, the company received comprehensive reports, amalgamating test results with expert analysis, aiding their final decision-making process.

 

Results: After implementing the executive assessment process, the company observed a 35% decrease in leadership role turnovers within a year. The newly hired leaders displayed better alignment with company goals, contributing to a 20% growth in overall productivity. This strategic move not only bolstered the company’s bottom line but also enhanced company morale, establishing a cohesive organizational culture.
