With the difficult economic climate and the development of stringent employment legislation, hiring the ‘correct’ individual within any organisation has become a critical issue as is optimising the use of current resources within your sales organisation.

A key factor is that managers are not able to objectively measure key DNA sales attributes such as call reluctance, time management, closing capability and leadership orientation with 100% certainty.

Personality assessments afford the element of objectivity and predictability, eliminating the ‘guess work’ out of selection and development. These tools increase the probability of predicting future performance as well as strengths and weaknesses and have a direct impact on revenue generation.

We use the highly reputable Self Management Group (SMG) psychometric tools which focus on training and coaching programmes to help clients improve performance by focusing on self-management in all its aspects (commitment, effort, attitude, and lifestyle management).

Top organisations are using SMG’s online screening and selection tools to improve performance by getting the right people doing the right things.

SMG partners with clients to attract and select top potential and maximise results through the use of proprietary, psychometric assessment tools, innovative self-management training, coaching and leadership consulting services. It’s success has been built on a proven formula for the selection, training, coaching and retention of ‘self-managing’ individuals, sales professionals, service representatives, managers and leaders.

SMG were the first company to provide normative, psychometric profiles on the internet and since then have become the largest sales profiling company in the world.

• The volume of items provides for considerable psychometric depth and as all of the items are strengths in some context, candidates who plan to enhance their profiles artificially find it difficult to do so.
