Description
Internal leadership placement decisions are crucial determinants of how the business and people strategies will be adopted and lived. This service clarifies the behavioral and leadership competencies that the client is looking for in their leadership applicants and conducts detailed leadership assessment with the prospective candidates to present findings around strengths, development areas, leadership potential & readiness. A rank order can also be shared if the client so requires based on the assessments. This entails internal company talent leadership succession assessments or other internal candidates seeking senior & executive level roles in the company.
