Assessment

At Natural Talent Bristol and South Wales, we utilize Occupational and Psychometric Tests for Recruitment, Selection and Development, as they are designed to provide an objective and fair assessment of abilities and aptitude. We use them ahead of any Executive Coaching, Career and Transition Coaching and Outplacement Support or Leadership Development or Management Training Program to find out more about your strengths, development areas and blind sports.

There is strong evidence that tests can provide information which is reliable in predicting job success. Personality Questionnaires give a comprehensive picture of how you are likely to behave at work, how you relate to others, the way you solve problems and approach conflict. Leaders and Managers are able to benchmark themselves against global peers and be further inspired to improve effectiveness, with results also providing useful input for Talent Management and Succession Planning.

360 Feedback is one of the most powerful tools in identifying where leaders and managers need to focus efforts in order to be more effective.  We have used our Face to Face 360 Feedback Process very effectively with CEOs and their senior management teams in global organizations in order to identify areas for improvement which can be addressed in Executive Coaching.  ROI is often in excess of 7,000%.

‘10/10: I was very happy with the process. The Consultant was fast, listened well, and she  helped you articulate your thoughts without putting her own words in your mouth. She quickly identified patterns and connected the dots.’

Senior VP, Technology

‘The two exercises the senior management team took part in as part of the Leadership Development Centre were spot on; the scenarios were completely relevant and covered the key issues and challenges we have to deal with on a day to day basis.  Thanks to you and Sue for your excellent facilitation of the day and valuable input to the team dynamics.’
