Identifying and developing the potentials of executives and employees

Background Reading
Spielarten der Potenzialeinschätzung (E. Domayer) (Varieties of Potential Evaluation, E. Domayer)

The future of a company springs from the minds and hearts of its workforce. Companies become innovative when new ideas grate against the familiar and when executives provide realms to accommodate the unprecedented. When the potentials behind the faces are acknowledged, valued, and purposefully fostered, an atmosphere emerges that encourages high performance along with productive irritation, which leads the way into the future.

In today’s international competition for talents, companies must develop clear notions of the talents they will need tomorrow, and at the same time remain attractive to high-potential employees already on their staff. The individuals whom they hire now will become the people who advance the organization if the selection and support are aligned with the challenges faced by management, strategy develop­ment, and change management in today’s complex environments.

• We support decision makers in selection processes and provide applicants and candidates with differentiated feedback on their potentials as well as needs for development. The result is a productive and sustainable dialog between the two such that corporate and personal goals can be attained.
• Our consulting services
• ensure high-quality decisions,
• provide guidance for development, and
• create a common language for continuously keeping an eye on personal potentials and their further development.

Our work is based on a portfolio of well-coordinated procedures and tools, most of which are available online. They provide valid and reliable starting points for decision-making and resource develop­ment.

• Management audit
• Self-assessment (individual or as a group)
• 360° feedback
• STAB
• Career Anchor

The instruments are selected and applied, and the results are analyzed in accordance with the specific diagnostic purpose. They make up the starting points and milestones on an efficiently controlled decision-making and development path.
