Our Mission
We help businesses to understand what good looks like within the organisation so they can create talent acquisition and retention strategies which deliver growth. We work in close collaboration with you, providing insights and recommendations which contributes to your organisations performance.
High Performer Profiling has the direct impact of improving succession planning, internal talent pools and employee engagement. In knowing more about the individuals who thrive in your organisation, their behaviours and what drives them to succeed you will be able to identify future internal talent and assess external talent more effectively.
Data-Driven Talent Insight
We blend talent strategy experience with data analytics to provide the platform for organisations to grow. Business Leaders and HR are empowered to create people strategies which focus upon acquiring and retaining excellence.
We use a range of metrics and frameworks to measure behaviours and personality. We combine this data with insight into career background, demographics and needs & wants of your high achievers to create talent profiles.
We will show you; which roles your future high achievers are likely to be currently fulfilling, what would attract them to and keep them within your organisation, what they are motivated by and what high achievers want from their career.
Our High Performer Profiling solution will transform the way your business understands talent.

We will conduct an independent analysis of the existing workforce to determine fact-based person pre-requisites of those who excel; this will provide insight which supports both recruitment and also the wider talent strategy.
Using your measures of success to provide comparison between High and Low Achievers, we will evidence to you what traits and career history are displayed in the talent that succeeds in your organisation, what they want from their career, how they are motivated and why they might leave.

The report will consist of two parts. Firstly the responses to the questionnaire at entire population and split by Achiever level to highlight variances, and secondly the Psychometric profiling of the smaller population in relation to the “Big Five Model” – Openness, Conscientiousness, Extroversion, Agreeableness and Neuroticism. This will enable us to evidence the key elements from Career Background, Needs & Wants and Behavioural features.
