WHAT IS TALENT OPTIMIZATION?

The essence of leadership is aligning employees with business strategy—and that begins with taking an intentional and data-driven approach to getting the people part right.

Talent optimization utilizes quantitative data and analytics so you can comprehend job requirements, identify the best candidates, understand the team dynamics needed to accomplish business goals, and manage employees in a way that pushes everyone to the top of their game.

A talent optimizer knows that the way people behave and interact in organizations is in fact predictable given the business context. By using people analytics to ensure candidate job fit, a company saw a 1.2 percent increase in profit per customer, a 6.3 percent rise in engagement, and 43 percent reduction in turnover. Disengaged employees cost their company approximately $3,400 for every $10,000 in annual salary.

We provide a well-established, business-relevant, and scientifically-proven measure of behavioral tendencies in the workplace—the Predictive Index platform. For over six decades, thousands of organizations have used The Predictive Index in nearly every job and industry around the world. More than 25+ million assessments have been conducted since Arnold S. Daniels delivered the first Behavioral Assessment in the 1950s, and though the assessments have been refined over time, our mission has never changed.

It’s a platform whose tools are scalable and repeatable, so you can always stay ahead of the curve to stave off any issues that seem to be brewing. Contact us today to inquire more!
