Building Your Leadership Pipeline: Discovering Potential with Psychological Insights
Finding and Retaining Top Leaders
Finding and retaining high-potential leaders is crucial for organizational success. However, relying solely on traditional competency models for hiring and retention can leave critical aspects of leadership development overlooked.
Beyond Skills: True Leadership Potential
Competency models, while valuable, often focus on skills and experience. They tell you what someone can do, but not necessarily how they will behave under pressure or how they will motivate and inspire others.
This is where Leadership Circle shines. We go beyond skills to leverage the power of psychological measurement. Our solutions provide a deeper understanding of a candidate’s behavioral tendencies, leadership motivations, and ability for growth.
