ASSESSING MANAGEMENT COMPETENCE AND SKILL
BIG NEWS FROM GALLUP
Research shows that organizations fail to select the right talent for management positions eighty percent of the time!!!! We have found the same in our own research.Peter Drucker proclaimed decades ago that 2/3 of managers fail to meet up to the expectations held for them when they were placed.
See this important article in the March 25,2014 GALLUP BUSINESS JOURNAL
You do not need to experience this kind of disaster in your organization!!!!

Jim Collins: Good To Great
How an organization goes about​identifying those who will fill important management positions will determine the future of that organization.
Peter Drucker once claimed that two out of three managers who are chosen or promoted will fail to meet the needs of the organization, nor will they meet the expectations held for them when they were chosen.
We think Drucker was an optimist.
The vast majority of managers are selected based on an interview..or on a series of interviews, on the recommendations of a previous manager, on their performance in a previous job, on personality test results, or on any of a number of gimmicks. Too bad..because most provide worthless information when it comes to predicting future performance,
Personality tests, color tests, interviews and group interviews, handwriting analysis, psycho-metrics, etc, add nothing to accuracy in predicting future performance.
Now, given our decades of research, and thousands of assessments, we are able to help you dramatically increase your success rate in placements
​Our goal at Yager Leadership is, as it has been for four decades, to help you achieve the level of success you have hoped for, and to provide effective solutions to the most important task you will perform by giving you better information. Our proven process will give you critical insights about your candidates which will guide you when selecting new team members and leaders, and ultimately help you create jobs.
​
Our assessment process is tailored specifically to the needs of your business in order to insure that you achieve your dreams of success. We all know that nothing can guarantee a persons future performance...but we also know that our experience will certainly increase your odds.
​
Ask us how you can arrange for a sample assessment.
Some people dream of success. We make it happen. Our experience is our greatest asset.
Accurate evaluation of a candidates competence is critical for an organizations success. The cost of a bad choice can be overwhelming. Bad decisions, poor quality, upset customers, suppliers and co-workers, and damaged reputations are the outcomes of poor selections.
The SKILLS ASSESSMENT provides critical information on a candidates skill, knowledge and ability directly related to the position in question. Whether making decisions for selection, or for promotion to more challenging positions, a manager needs to know whether or not the candidate will be able do what is required.

Our individual process of assessment might be thought of as a sort of audition or an athletic tryout. It does not matter what a violinist says about themselves, nor how laudable their motivations and their experience...at some point, you must hear them play the violin.
Great leaders and coaches agonize over key personnel decisions.
Through our MULT-TECHNIQUE PROCESS , we can provide accurate and unbiased information about your candidates.
An additional benefit is that the report is so behavioral it allows the feedback to be used for coaching and development so the candidate can improve in the future.
​​​
It is the process that makes the difference....

You define the supervisory, management or professional sales position in question. This in terms of required knowledge, skills and abilities, using the position survey questionaire we provide.
We send your candidate(s) appropriate instrumentation testing and preparation materials.
Given the completed materials, we then contact your candidate by telephone for an in depth behavioral interview.
We send you a complete evaluation providing detailed results and materials which can, if desired, be used for coaching chosen and/or rejected candidates.
​
Note: We do not recommend that you hire or not hire. WE PROVIDE IMPORTANT ASSESSMENTS AND INFORMATION that will help you in your decision making, given our evaluation, our predictions for success, and the results of your own assessment .
