Executive Selection

Hospital leaders want to select, hire, retain and develop the right people. They also want to put these people in the right positions. We assist in this process with the help of a proven assessment system that complements the traditional interviewing and due-diligence process.

A proven assessment tool establishes a benchmark that measures what an individual CAN do, is MOTIVATED to do, and by inference, WILL DO in a specific job. An effective system assesses job candidates individually and compares each to the position benchmark. Hiring managers are then equipped with a complete position profile and comparison report on each member of their team.

An assessment system doesn’t replace traditional hiring practices; rather, it complements them and helps to ensure that the right person is hired. Here’s how it works:

  • Management identifies a group of stakeholders who are familiar with the job
  • Stakeholders review and modify the job description so that it accurately reflects job responsibilities
  • Stakeholders determine the key job accountabilities, i.e., the measurable deliverables for superior job performance
  • Stakeholders respond to an online questionnaire that produces a consolidated report establishing the benchmark for the personal competencies, motivators/values and behavioral characteristics necessary for superior job performance
  • Top candidates for the position take an online assessment that produces a report comparing their talents to one another and to the job benchmark
  • Hiring manager makes final selection based on the interview results, reference checks, and the talent comparison report differentiating the candidates

"If we get the right people on the bus, the right people in the right seats, and the wrong people off the bus, then we'll figure out how to take it someplace great.”

— Jim Collins, author, Good to Great

Based on a study of approximately 300,000 subjects, the Harvard Business
Review
concluded that “it’s not experience that counts or college degrees or other accepted factors; success hinges on a fit with the job.”
