Assessing Future Executives

Companies retain the Executive Intelligence Group to identify and shape future leaders. Our ability to assess an individual’s future potential as a leader is critical to our clients' decisions about the deployment and development of their future executive talent pool.

Whether bringing in new talent or assessing existing managers, our clients depend on us to identify future high performers and to provide specific development recommendations to maximize performance.

Case Study: Assessing Future Executives

Facing difficult succession and development issues, a major food processing company came to the Executive Intelligence Group for help. One of the specific challenges facing the company was to identify, retain, and grow its high potential managers. We assessed all of the directors and vice presidents, providing the client with hard data on which to make optimal deployment decisions. We provided specific, actionable development feedback to the Executive Committee and directly to the candidates assessed. The client identified and promoted high performers and completely reorganized the management team. The changes in structure and leadership produced immediate improvements in execution and employee engagement. The Head of HR made smart decisions when investing in training and coaching by utilizing a deep understanding of the true strengths and limitations of each candidate.
