Assessment Center e Valutazione delle Competenze delle Risorse Umane

Assessment & development is the division of GSO Consulting that provides organizations with the quantitative and qualitative elements to optimize teams and develop the talent needed to achieve corporate goals.

The Assessment Center is a methodology for assessing human resource skills and potential based on the simulation of work situations, with the aim of measuring individual professional skills. In these simulated sessions, various tests and tasks designed to test the resource’s ability to deal with complex issues, manage relationships with other people, and innovate creatively are performed.

Through the assessment center, a company can obtain useful information to make more thoughtful decisions about which personnel to hire or promote. The main objective is to assess potential and possibly identify weaknesses to be corrected through programs aimed at improving skills with respect to a specific role.

The Assessment Center is therefore a very versatile system and a key tool in the workforce selection process, but also as a means of career guidance and vocational training.

SKILLS ASSESSMENT

We design specific business assessment interventions to assess the behavioral competencies and potential of human resources. Through observation of behaviors and analysis of personal characteristics, we are able to map individual areas of strength and improvement, returning to the company a timely snapshot of the person, with a view to current employment and future development. Through a rigorous process customized to the client’s needs, we offer assessment of a company’s executives, managers, and staff through Assessment systems using our team of qualified assessors and the use of state-of-the-art psychometric tools produced by GSO Psychometrics.

This allows us to provide the client with a gap analysis against the companies’ competency models, thanks to an integrated methodology that returns insights into both the potential and the hard and soft behaviors and skills expressed by each individual. Maturing a concrete awareness of what are the resources on which to build the organization’s success is an important step for a company that believes in the value of people and bases its strategy on a solid foundation. GSO Assessment offers companies the opportunity to identify their talents and leaders, based on the assessment of the professional skills needed to ensure the implementation of the Strategy and the potential of each resource.

Assessment of skills

Competency assessment is a process by which an individual’s professional and soft skills, knowledge and abilities in a given field are measured. This process is critical in evaluating the effectiveness of a training program or personnel selection process and can have a significant impact in helping organizations and their people achieve their goals.

The ways in which skills are assessed

Competency assessment can be done through various tools, such as tests, practice tests, interviews, and evaluations by experts in the field. The results of these assessments can be used to identify areas in which an individual needs to improve, to select the best staff for a particular position, or to evaluate the effectiveness of a training program.

Assessment of Potential

Potential assessment is a process that is used to identify and measure an individual’s abilities, skills and personality traits. The process can be carried out through both qualitative and quantitative methods. Assessment results can help organizations identify the most suitable resources for various crucial positions in the company, but also provide the employees themselves with useful information on how to improve themselves and group them into optimally functioning and efficient teams.

Evaluation of executives and managers

Assessments aimed at evaluating managers are tools used to assess the skills, capabilities and characteristics of an organization’s executives and managers, as well as their performance. These assessments may include a series of tests, interviews, feedback from colleagues, and evaluations of the manager’s achievements.

The goal of the manager assessment is to identify the manager’s areas of strength and weakness in order to provide constructive feedback and develop an improvement plan to enhance his or her skills and abilities. In addition, assessments aimed at evaluating executives can be used to identify potential candidates for leadership positions, and to provide support for their professional development, contributing to the achievement of corporate goals.
