We can assist you in assessing:

1) Personal Profile Analysis (PPA)

The work personality profile tool, Personal Profile Analysis (PPA) provides an insight into how people behave at work answering questions such as –What are their strengths and limitations? Are they self starters? How do they communicate? What motivates them?

Key Benefits

• Fast, accurate and cost effective
• Takes only 7-8 minutes to complete
• Eliminates the need for guesswork
• Enables more effective people management

Personality profiling can be used to:

• Improve your recruitment process
• Increase staff retention
• Enable more effective people management

2) Human Job Analysis (HJA) - Job profiling

Thomas designed its job profiling tool specifically to make the creation of job profiles much simpler and more intuitive.

Before you can recruit the right person to the right job you need to understand not only the candidate’s profile but that of the role itself. Just as behavioural profiling with PPA enables you to understand the behavioural characteristics of an individual, job profiling helps you identify the behavioural requirements of a job.

Why use Thomas job profiling tool?

Job profiling complements the psychometric profiling that PPA delivers. Both enable you to 'fit' job and candidate together seamlessly. By comparing a PPA profile against that of a job profile you are able to assess how well a person would 'fit' the role.

3) Team Audit

Benefits of team audits:

• Identify ideal team culture
• Assess existing team profile
• Provide a gap analysis in terms of behavioural and role short fall

A team test helps members understand themselves and the impact their behaviour has on others and can have a massive impact on team development. A team evaluation can be used when teams are not performing as well as they should, when a company strategy calls for change, if an organisation is not performing or when there is a change to the membersip of the team.

Why team assessment?

Team audits help you build high performance teams. Good team work is the cornerstone to business success but too often companies get it wrong. So, what makes a good team great? A successful team needs the right proportion of people with the right mix of skills, experience and perspective.

A high performance team relies on three factors:

• Self awareness
• Recognition of different team member’s contributions
• Modification of behaviour to enhance team effectiveness

Team development can deliver this.
