Why Employee Assessments?

In order to be successful in today's competitive environment you have to have the right talent in the right position. The right talent in the right position spells success. One of the keys to utilizing talent to its fullest potential is to understand it, and use effective ways to measure it. That's why we use the finest employee assessments to help determine if there is a right fit between the person and the job and to determine the training and development needs.

CAPITAL iDEA provides employee assessments so organizations can measure and know an employee's motivators, behaviors, personal skills and capacities. When properly used, employee assessments allow organizations to hire the right employees, implement succession-planning programs, establish a basis for employee development, and restructure with accurate knowledge. We always use assessments as part of our executive leadership training and sales development training processes. The benefits of employee assessments include reduced turnover, increase productivity, and employee satisfaction.

CAPITAL iDEA's provide an in depth view of an employee by measuring motivators, behavioral traits, personal skills and capacities. The motivators measure the values an employee brings to the organization. The motivators answer the question: Why the employee would do the job.

The behavioral traits measure the behavioral styles and emotions of the employee. The behavioral traits answer the question: How the employee would perform the job. The attributes measure the specific talents or personal skills an employee possesses.

The personal skills and capacities answer the questions: Can and Will the employee be able to do the job. In addition, we conduct 360° surveys to measure employee performance and identify development needs.

Employee assessments allow organizations to have an unbiased view of the employee.. By answering the “Why,” “How,” “Can,” and “Will” questions, the organization can select talent that can “hit the ground running,” increase productivity, and reduce employee turnover.

Employee assessments should always be used as part of the hiring and selection process. Employee assessments give you a completely unbiased view of a candidate and are very accurate predictors of performance. Reduced turnover, less "ramp up" time, and increased productivity are just a few of the benefits of using employee assessments in the hiring and selection process

Having the right person in the right job is a function of knowing what the job requires. Our state of the art job benchmarking process allows the job to “speak for itself” and tell what behavioral styles, motivators, personal skills and capacities are needed to be successful in the job.

The candidate screening process is primarily a subjective process. When organizations include job benchmarking in their selection process, they gain an objective unbiased tool that substantially increases the success rate of having the right person in the right job.

Employee Feedback Survey

An employee feedback survey is a way of having external eyes validate and clarify internal issues. CAPITAL iDEA customizes each employee feedback survey to meet the needs of your organization. The survey questions are customized to focus on your organization’s specific concerns and the employee feedback survey can be administered in a variety of ways. We can conduct an online, one-on-one interview, or paper employee feedback survey

Our post employee feedback survey follow-up is one of the most important aspects of the employee feedback survey. It does no good to survey employees if you are not going to take action on the results of the survey.

We interpret the employee feedback survey results and work with the leadership team and staff to develop specific action plans to address areas of concern.
