Profiling and Psychometric Testing
Helping you get the best people and helping you get the best out of people !!
Why are so many clients currently interested in the benefits of profiling ?
People are the biggest potential resource in any given context and yet how many truly meet their full potential ?
Whether you are recruiting new employees or coaching an existing workforce, figuring out people, understanding their strengths and their weaknesses, is the only way to ensure they can truly meet their full potential.
Using a good profiling tool is the best way to really get to understand people. With our profiling expertise we can provide in depth information in the following areas:
- How a Profile can be as Good as a Reference
- Why your Best People are your Best People
- Real Strengths and Weaknesses
- How to Manage for Peak Performance
- How best to Motivate People
- How to Troubleshoot Performance Issues
- How to use Coaching and to get Results
The motivational and behavioural profile maps out the highlights of this set of traits, providing a picture of how we are most likely to behave and respond in given circumstances.
In what situations is it appropriate to use profiling ?
We use profiling tools in a number of diferent contexts and often the profile is a first step. The tools we use are  Context Specific which means that the results are bound to specific contexts rather than generalised to global statements about personality.
Individuals and organisations can gain significant value if they are engaged in any activity where self awareness or awareness of the behaviour and motivations of others is of value. Profiling has been succesfully applied in the following areas:
What the CIPD say: "testing enables managers to act on more informed and accurate perceptions about individuals"
- Recruitment and Outsourcing
- Implementation and Management of Corporate Change
- As a Dimension in Appraisals
- As a Foundation to Training Activities
- A Cornerstone of Coaching
- A Tool for Troubleshooting People and System Performance
- Structuring Advertising to Maximise Appropriate Response Rates
How are the profiles completed ?
When we profile people the profiles are available for completion in one of three formats: online for anyone who has internet access; paper and pen version for manual processing and we are also able to conduct conversational elicitations. We offer a choice of three different profiling tools each is suited to different needs. The format of the three tools we offer are as follows:
| Profile |
Format |
| iWAM |

| DISC |
Available via internet link and also paper and pencil |
| LAB Profile |
A face to face conversational style elicitation |
What else do we offer as part of our profiling service ?
Profiling is such a powerful tool we wanted to be able to offer more than just a profiling service. We are qualified to conduct Certified Trainings for the iWAM and LAB Profile tools. This means that we can spend time training our clients to facilitate their own online profiling or to elicit their own conversational profiles. This means you are then able to generate your own results independantly which may be more cost effective for those who adopt profiling as a tool of choice.
Our Training area has details of the Open Access Training and In-House Training courses we provide. Additionally please feel welcome to contact us and discuss your requirements any time.
