In a worldwide Hay Group study of 1,214 leaders, one finding stood out a mile: people were more likely to overrate themselves as they became more senior. Reliable 360° tools – used rigorously, early and often – can clear up the ‘blind spots’ to which leaders are prone, helping them base their development on meaningful feedback.
Hay Group’s capability assessment work traces its history back to competency pioneer Dr. David McClelland. Our competency portfolios reflect the complex realities of current day roles and demands. They show how characteristics interrelate in different situations to differentiate performance. Based on the behavioral data of thousands of leaders, Hay Group’s 360° tools:
- are built around organizations’ business strategies
- measure the competencies that deliver outstanding individual performance
- help leaders to identify, and build on, their strengths and resources
- support different development priorities and career paths
- are delivered globally with advice and support in local languages and time zones
- are available online and processed through flexible, accessible technology.
