Management and Leadership Assessment 

Good management: the key to success

Good management is the key to the well-being of the personnel and to business success. Therefore, besides taking into account the applicant’s CV, competencies and networks in managerial recruitment, focus should also be put on – and perhaps above all - people management skills. The expression “a chain is only as strong as its weakest link” is especially true when managers are viewed as part of a team and a work community. Management and Leadership assessment is a valuable tool in recruitment but also in developing existing management teams or in evaluating the managerial potential within an organization.

Management and Leadership Assessments focus on managerial capacities

MPS Management Assessment allows us to determine an individual’s capability to succeed in an open managerial position and how well the person fits in the organization, and when necessary, also the person’s capacities to develop as a manager. Assessments are used to evaluate individual working style, characteristics, competencies and motivational factors. Management assessments pay special attention to the essential capacities and competencies in regard to the management position, such as leadership and visionary abilities and perception of entities. MPS Management Assessments consist of in-depth interviews and various tests and tasks determining personality, operating style and different abilities.

Management assessments build up respect for management within the organization

Right decisions are made based on the right knowledge. MPS Management Assessments provide a comprehensive and objective view on the individual’s capacities to manage an organization as well as development areas related to operating and leadership styles. Nobody is born an expert; the personal coaching feedback given after the assessment supports the individual in making the best of personal strengths and creates a good basis for developing as a manager.

Investing in management development and management evaluation increases respect for management and managerial positions not only from the individual’s perspective, but across the entire organization. Management assessment can be carried out as part of a Development Analysis which may include 360° Evaluations and Coaching sessions.
