Most CEO’s and business
owners recognize that their most valuable asset and leading competitive
advantage is their employees.
However, many of these same executives will clearly state that while
they are willing to readily invest in improving and maintaining their
physical plant and equipment, they are less willing to invest in improving
the efficiency and effectiveness of their management staff, top performers
and emerging leaders.
In
order to merely survive in today’s rapidly changing and highly competitive
markets, executives need extraordinary results from ordinary people. For
all employees, including your top performers, productivity is a direct
reflection of their relationship with their immediate managers. Companies also need to constantly look to
increase revenue and decrease costs.
To do this, organizations need to tap the inherent potential of each
employee, in particular their leadership.
It has been proven that companies that strongly support leadership
development, out perform those that don’t by 35%.
Effective
leaders, as well as top performers in organizations, are looking for
development opportunities to improve their skills and interactions. When an organization fails in this
regard, those employees will look for opportunities elsewhere.
Rather
than rely on one day canned seminars from national training organizations,
effective training programs are well planned and developed around the
company’s strategic goals, organizational values and specific needs.
Leadership
programs should include elements of: strategic planning and goal setting,
behaviors and behavioral diversity, communications, change management,
conflict resolution, high performing team building, time and productivity
management, delegation and coaching skills.
One-on-one business success coaching is the next most important and
logical step to reinforce the learning experience.
Results
clearly show that most people retain approximately 30% of their training
over a six-month period. However,
with effective one-on-one coaching, the learning curve is significantly
reduced and training retention improves to 88%. Weekly coaching sessions should include
elements of how training is utilized on the job. Positive effects from coaching are
sustained over the long term.
There
is a clear indication that the average return on an effective training and
coaching program is approximately 529%.
Thus, for every $20,000 spent, the return is well over
$100,000. Therefore, your investment
in a well planned training and coaching program will have direct effects to
your revenues, return on investments and employee retention.
The
Birch Group can work with you in developing an effective training program
that includes one-on-one coaching to ensure that your top performers and
managers can maximize their potential.

The Personal Talent Skills
Inventory

Discover and develop
personal talent for success!
THE NEED FOR
TALENT
Today, business
success is measured in TALENT – the RIGHT talent for the job! Lack of job performance and related
employee turnover result in missed business opportunities and increased
costs. It makes sense that
business leaders are now seeking better ways to accurately assess,
develop and retain top talent. Now
there is a proven assessment that will assist you in these endeavors –
the Personal Talent Skills Inventory!
ABOUT THE PERSONAL
TALENT SKILLS INVENTORY
Unique to the Personal
Talent Skills Inventory is its ability to assess an individual’s
cognitive structure (i.e., how their mind perceives themselves and the
world around them). Unlike any
other instrument, the Personal Talent Skills Inventory has a direct
relationship with mathematics, and this is the secret behind its ability
to accurately measure the core dimensions of how we think. The result is an accurate ranking of
personal ATTRIBUTES describing individual potential for workplace
performance.
Personal Talent
Skills Inventory was designed, from the beginning, exclusively for use in
a business environment. Its
overall intent, format and output are specifically tailored to meet the
needs of business owners, managers and executives today.
When combined with
an assessment of BEHAVIORAL TRAITS and VALUES, the Personal Talent Skills
Inventory presents a complete picture of individual talent.
VALIDATION
The Personal
Talent Skills Inventory has been validated in over 28 individual
validation studies, conducted over 20 years by more than 19 separate
examiners. It is proven to meet
the rigorous standards for employment assessments referenced by the US
Federal Government Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC).
APPLICATION
The Personal
Talent Skills Inventory can contribute successfully to a number of
business processes requiring effective talent management, including:
·
Employee Selection
·
Employee Development
·
Coaching and Mentoring
·
Performance Appraisals
Targeted reports
are available to identify key talents required in a number of business
positions, such as: General Employment, Management, Sales Management,
Sales, Healthcare and Customer Service.
