Executive Assessments
Our business began 45 years ago with assessing key external candidates for hire—and that core expertise remains foundational to the work we do. We have a unique perspective on world-class talent, and our experienced assessors compare each candidate to benchmarked industry norms that can easily be mapped to your organization’s competency model. These include:
- Consistently delivering extraordinary results
- Establishing and driving significant enterprise change
- Attracting and developing outstanding talent
- Providing thought leadership
- Demonstrating real leadership presence
- Building high-performing teams
Just as great leaders help reduce uncertainty in their organizations, we aim to decrease the uncertainty involved with your hiring, promotion, and succession planning decisions.
Through interviews, testing, and the use of success profiles, we dive deep to understand a candidate’s behavior and their impact. Before every assessment, we learn about the role, the team, the organization, and the candidate to ensure we understand what an extraordinary leader looks like for you.
After the assessment, we make clear recommendations and talk you through our thinking before delivering an in-depth written report.
Vantage assessments offer an objective perspective for key talent management processes, including:
- Hiring and promoting managers and executives
- Evaluating bench strength and auditing the management team
- Identifying and accelerating high-potential leaders
- Planning for succession
Individual Assessments include a comprehensive interview and test battery and are used for both the selection of external candidates and promotional decision-making. Our feedback can jumpstart onboarding and drive development planning.
360° Assessments are conducted using either MRG’s Leadership Effectiveness Analysis online survey or through a series of interviews. This type of assessment is best suited for the identification and development of internal leadership talent – accelerating high-potential leaders and readying successor candidates.
The specifics of our assessments are customized every time. Contact us to learn more about how our process would work for you.
