What are the three key areas in building and maintaining a high performing team?
1) Hire with Accuracy
2) Maximize performance
3) Minimize rotation
But of course the questions are how to do this. After more than 40 years of history and clients including Major League Baseball, National Basketball, National Hockey League, US Olympic teams, Oracle Corp., and well-known training companies, Winslow Research Institute can confidently say that it has the solution.
Recruitment: You are in the process of recruiting an employee and think if you had a detailed personality profile assessment that assessed 24 different areas of their personal attitudes, mental abilities, and emotional reactions, would you think it would be helpful? Now think if you had a profile that had proven to be successful in that particular position and you could overlay the applicants profile with the success profile, would that be helpful? Would you be able to hire accurately if the applicant was compared to over 2,000,000 other evaluations? Would it help to know that if the applicant was not consistent with his answers, answered positively about himself, or did not read at a 10th grade level, the test would not be valid and he would not get a result? So every proof you see will be a valid evaluation! – Tell me, would you be able to contract with Precision? I don’t think I have to answer that question.
Maximizing Performance – This is actually a lot easier than most employers think. How do you maximize the performance of an employee? Evaluate their strengths and which positions would have the greatest ability to succeed based on their profile. You identify areas of concern that would hold them back. When you do a personal assessment, you can easily see which areas are of concern and train the employee in those areas. A coach can quickly address areas of personal attitudes and then move on to emotional reactions. Using the right coaching techniques, you can see quick results in areas of concern, thus maximizing employee performance in their role. A success map can be created based on individual strengths and weaknesses
Minimize turnover – Again, this is not as difficult as most believe that when an employee finds themselves in a position that suits their personal attitudes, emotional reactions, and mental abilities, they are much more satisfied in their role. A Satisfied employee is less likely to move to another company that does not take the same considerations into account. When you work with the employee and develop a success map for his career that is based on his individual personality, the employee realizes that he has a stake in his success.
Winslow Research Institute has worked with companies for more than 40 years to implement individually developed employee development programs. This staff development, once implemented, has increased profitability from 35 to 60% and minimized turnover by up to 50%.
