OUR
APPROACH
REDUCE ERROR RATE IN SELECTION DECISIONS
Every employee we appoint should be more qualified and more talented than the one they replaced, but we are notoriously bad at picking people. In fact, it’s unlikely that even 2 out of 10 hires in your business will ever achieve world class performance.
Typically, we evaluate a candidate’s resume and references, we bring them in for round robin interviews, and we are easily influenced by impressions of motivation and personality.
None of these activities are significantly increasing our hit rate.
A candidate’s experience, technical expertise, personality factors and motivation cannot predict for top quartile performance.

FUTURE LEADERS FROM THE FRONTLINE

Yet our talent acquisition teams often find themselves behind the ball when it comes to taking a more holistic approach to succession planning.

MEASURE TALENT.
PREDICT PERFORMANCE.
SOCRATES
Decades of research have shown that experience and expertise fail to predict for superior performance. Motivation and personality are important factors in personal development but still fall short. Research tells us that talent is the top predictor for superior performance.
