The profile also provides laser accuracy into how well a candidate "sees
big picture" and how pieces of picture fit together to make a whole.
Added insights include measuring ability to use practical thinking and ability to project a goal into future and develop a plan to attain it.
In second section of report, Developing a Strategy, Richard gains insights on candidate's ability to plan and manage project. This is only tool that provides you with specifics of how each candidate can plan for consequences of actions and decisions, and how he reacts to crises. As a CEO, it's more important than ever for you to know which candidate best knows how to quickly identify source of a problem and factors relating to problem.
You can know which candidate has best combination of skills to manage project and move your company forward if you know who has ability to come up with alternative solutions for problems and who can control flow of events.
But it doesn't stop there. You can take an even closer look at your selection of candidates. In third section of report you take out your magnifying glass and see management abilities of candidates.
Utilizing this section of report, Richard can benchmark each candidate's ability to identify problems and critical issues. You know how well they can determine what needs to be done and whether or not they know how to do it in most effective manner.
Another component of report tells you if they can determine and understand what is needed to carry out your objectives, whether they are clear about potential problems and abilities of their people to resolve those situations.
The last part of this section provides Richard with a clear picture of which candidates are best equipped to create an efficient process or manage a system that others can follow.
These are a few of many insights Axiology and Value Profile can provide Richard and other CEO's who want to fulfill vision they have for future of their company.
There's more to come; this is first part of a three part article series. In second article Richard, our CEO, will discover how he can assess candidates' organizational abilities, inner drive to succeed, and how much of a self-starter each candidate is.
