Bill was recently promoted. The new job required well-developed interpersonal communication and management skills. Bill was extremely competent in product knowledge, yet lacked the communication skills necessary to be an effective leader and motivator. After completing 360 and leadership assessments, very specific communication skills were targeted for development. In addition, Bill completed the Interpersonal Power program (a crash course in human motivation and interpersonal relationships). By his six-month review, he was well on track. By the ninth month, he was not only meeting his job requirements, he was functioning as a positive instrument for organizational growth and development.

A VP position in IT was open. The search had been narrowed to three candidates. Comprehensive selection profiles were completed on each. The process included a three hour structured interview to assess cognitive, emotional, interpersonal, and motivational styles; online comprehensive personality and leadership assessments; and blueprint for action integrating strengths and developmental needs. The result was a well-thought out hiring by design, not by chemistry.
