Assessing Senior Executives For Selection and Development

talk with us
Assessing senior executives’ readiness to undertake new or increased responsibilities requires a combination of knowledge and judgment. Understanding their strengths, capabilities, gaps, and areas of growth — and how that aligns with the job to be done — is invaluable to putting leaders on the right path for success for themselves and the organization.

Our assessment approach varies depending on the needs of the individual and organization. We use a variety of tools, including multi-rater feedback, personality assessments, and cognitive tests, to identify the technical skills, business-focused experience, people-focused abilities, and personal awareness to lead the organization.

CASE STUDY: Identifying Leadership Strengths and Development Opportunities

A prominent healthcare organization partnered with us to conduct a comprehensive, developmentally focused assessment of 25 senior leaders. The objective was to identify each leader’s core strengths and development opportunities while evaluating the potential organizational impact of these findings.

 

Our approach centered on establishing a dedicated Leadership Assessment Center, utilizing three distinct assessment methodologies to ensure comprehensive data collection. In addition to formal testing instruments, we conducted in-depth structured interviews with each participant to capture their professional background, leadership experiences, and key activities. These interviews also allowed us to assess specific competencies that standardized testing might not fully capture.

 

The assessment process yielded detailed individual profiles highlighting identified strengths, targeted development opportunities, and potential risk factors for each leader. Beyond individual results, we provided strategic recommendations designed to help the organization maximize both current leadership capabilities and future potential, creating value for the executives and the broader company.

  • Comprehensive Leadership Profiles: Delivered detailed assessments for 25 leaders using multiple methodologies, providing a complete picture of individual strengths and development needs
  • Strategic Development Roadmap: Created targeted recommendations that aligned individual growth opportunities with organizational objectives and succession planning needs
  • Risk Mitigation Framework: Identified potential leadership risk factors and provided actionable strategies to address vulnerabilities before they impact organizational performance
  • Enhanced Leadership Pipeline: Established a foundation for evidence-based leadership development initiatives that support both individual career advancement and company-wide leadership effectiveness
