Benefits
At SBLC, our clients work with highly experienced and fully trained assessors who are certified in multiple assessment tools, instruments, and methodologies. First, we focus upon the key benefits for our client organizations (sponsors) who smartly choose to invest in their most valuable asset – people! Second, clients of SBLC also include consulting firms who request assistance with their own clients in the areas of assessment and succession.
One key differentiator is that we will customize an assessment process taking into account our client’s unique needs. For example, we are not wedded to any particular survey or psychometric, but rather we first aim to understand our client’s objectives and only then identify the most optimal assessment methodology and process.
Executive assessments may be conducted on a “stand-alone” basis such as is in the case of a Finalist Assessment/Selection situation. Alternatively, assessments are integrated within a succession process, coaching engagement, or even a multi-stream consulting project.
Another key differentiator of SBLC is our focus upon the “candidate experience”. While many executives do not welcome, or even dread, the prospect of going through an assessment, we ensure that the candidate/participant experience should not only be worthwhile (e.g. through learning and insight), but also a pleasant, valuable and efficient one. All said, feedback is highly positive from assessment participants after working with our experts.
