But with this claim, she took it too far!<p></p><p>It can be a cultural thing! Or no-culture thing! That's the debate that Arnab shall run for primetime, but here, I have a few cases to make based on my experiences with compensation, aka salary, and how dumb analytics and tech MNC CoEs can get!</p><p>I was HRBP for an American $3 billion power electronics company in their R&D CoE in Bangalore. I had three tech teams to look after, and they sat in different offices in the city! 2 of these R&D teams had their payroll run from the factory operations in Bangalore Suburb, and the third R&D team (Siebel Services, CAD designs, etc.) ran from the sales office in the city! It's interesting, isn't it?</p><p>One day, I visited this third team's office and met a guy I had onboarded a month ago. It was also a check-in meeting with him. He told me that his salary has some mismatches as against the offer letter's salary breakdown. I was curious (damn curious!). I checked his pay slip (which was for a full month) and checked his offer letter breakdown. The offer letter was issued by me and signed by the Head of HR for India. To my shock, the Basic and HRA were different, and there was a component in the payslip that was not even mentioned in the offer letter. I met the finance and accounts team that sent data to the payroll vendor for pay-out. He showed me his excel file, which he used to create a breakdown of payouts from the offer letter, which he sent to the payroll vendor. There were differences, as I had observed. In fact, the team of 45 staff, for 5 or more years, paid less than and even different Basic and HRA than their offer letter, but maybe one asked anything as the difference was less (maybe ~Rs. 900 every month for someone who got Rs. 56K take-home!). This was shocking because no one corrected it for all these years. Even the Big 4 audited this firm every year.</p><p>Shameful, but it happens.</p><p>Case #2: A Chicago-based management consulting firm. 3500 people across 18 global offices. Hires from the Ivy League. I was even ranked no. 5 in the vault rating during that time, not any more.</p><p>My first salary was credited...I was in shock! It was nearly three times my monthly salary. I was paid assuming my start date was May 7, not July 5, which was my real start date!</p><p>(American Day/Month ka chakkar Babu Bhaiya!), but happens! I signed a check in company's name and paid back, wrote a side note : Keep the change! :)</p><p>The same analytics and management consulting firm gives annual salary raises and promotions to campus newcomers from the previous few years.</p><p>Juniors got a salary raise and the same designation as their seniors, with a higher designation! Yes, kids share their new compensation, as they want to know what others in their cohort got.</p><p>Seniors protested, and soon corrections were made! You don't need to go to Ivy League College to act dumb!</p><p>Please take these stories for humor.</p><p>These are real stories, and I have written them with full responsibility and intent, not to demean anyone but to highlight what my mentor said:</p><p>We believe in people, but verify!</p><p>My dad told me what he learned in his civil service training.

Ideally response shall be coming the same way (at least) with title, location, etc. Why not CEO or CHRO or Chief of Staff responding to it? Or the Head of Employer Branding or now a days, The Chief Diversity Office for better grab? <p></p><p style="--artdeco-reset-typography_getfontsize: 1.6rem; --artdeco-reset-typography_getlineheight: 1.5; background-color: white; border: var(--artdeco-reset-base-border-zero); box-sizing: inherit; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.9); counter-reset: list-1 0 list-2 0 list-3 0 list-4 0 list-5 0 list-6 0 list-7 0 list-8 0 list-9 0; cursor: text; font-family: -apple-system, system-ui, BlinkMacSystemFont, "Segoe UI", Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", "Fira Sans", Ubuntu, Oxygen, "Oxygen Sans", Cantarell, "Droid Sans", "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Lucida Grande", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 20px; line-height: var(--artdeco-reset-typography_getLineHeight); margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: var(--artdeco-reset-base-vertical-align-baseline); white-space-collapse: preserve;">2.

Reviewer has given a 5-star rating and has given all green lights to referring a friend, CEO's approval and positive belief on Roche's business outlook, but reviewer seems blinkered and ignored acknowledging any of these positives.

Reasons for the decline include lack of support, resources, and commitment, and the disconnect between DEI efforts and profitability. Retaining CDOs requires reframing their role, providing long-term budgets and resources, and ensuring executive support.</p><p><a href="https://www.tlnt.com/articles/the-great-dei-resignation-why-are-so-many-diversity-heads-calling-it-quits">The ‘Great DEI Resignation’ – why are so many diversity heads calling it quits? | TLNT</a></p><p> - Hiring boom for CDOs post-Black Lives Matter movement.</p><p> - Decline in CDO numbers, with a 4.5% decrease in 2022 according to a LinkedIn report.</p><p><b>-Who Are Chief Diversity Officers?</b></p><p> - Upper-level management responsible for a company's inclusion and equity initiatives.</p><p> - Tasks include <u><b>recruiting diverse employees</b></u>, identifying diversity gaps, organizing training, and addressing discrimination concerns.</p><p> - Typically hold advanced degrees and have 5-10 years of relevant experience.</p><p><b>- Reasons for CDO Departures:</b></p><p> - Lack of support, resources, and companywide commitment to DEI efforts.</p><p> - CDOs often undertake the work of multiple roles, leading to burnout.</p><p> - Superficial hires without empowerment to address systemic inequities.</p><p> - Financial concerns leading to elimination of DEI-related positions.</p><p>- Challenges Faced by CDOs:</p><p> - Discrimination within organizations against CDOs.</p><p> - Frustration and burnout due to obstacles in creating change.</p><p><br /></p><p>- More Resources Are Needed:</p><p> - Reframing DEI as a profitable strategy.</p><p> - Peer support for CDOs and long-term budgets.</p><p> - Real change champions and visible executive support.</p><p> - Treating CDO positions with the same respect as other upper-management roles.</p><p><br /></p><p>- Diversity Without a CDO:</p><p> - Companies risk losing momentum in DEI efforts and miss out on diverse talent.</p><p> - CDOs address unconscious bias and microaggressions, requiring long-term commitment.</p><p> - CDO presence affects a company's culture, bottom line, and appeal to diverse talent.</p><p>- Conclusion:</p><p> - Companies must view DEI efforts as ongoing and demonstrate a commitment beyond having a CDO in place.</p><p> - The risk of losing CDOs not only affects DEI progress but also impacts the company's culture and financial performance.</p><p>This comprehensive analysis highlights the challenges faced by CDOs, the reasons for their declining numbers, and the necessary steps organizations should take to retain them and ensure the success of their DEI efforts.</p><p><a href="https://www.visier.com/blog/chief-diversity-officers-exits/">Were Chief Diversity Officers Set Up to Fail?

The departure of CDOs, especially within S&P 500 companies, suggests challenges and inadequacies in supporting diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) efforts.</p><p>Summary</p><p>- Exodus of CDOs:</p><p> - A significant number of Chief Diversity Officers at S&P 500 companies left their positions between 2018 and 2021, with an average tenure decrease from 3.1 to 1.8 years in 2021.</p><p> - Notable instances include leaders leaving companies like Tesla and Nike due to burnout and lack of support.</p><p>- Root Causes of Departure:</p><p> - DEI programs were often implemented without proper consideration of how to run and measure a successful initiative.</p><p> - Unrealistic expectations, insufficient resources, and a lack of executive support contributed to the failure of DEI programs.</p><p>- Impact of George Floyd's Murder:</p><p> - The murder of George Floyd in 2020 prompted a surge in DEI-related job postings, with companies appointing diversity leaders for the first time.</p><p> - However, two years later, some programs are being discontinued, and CDOs are resigning.</p><p>- Reasons for DEI Program Failures:</p><p> - Lack of resources, executive support, and funding.</p><p> - Treating DEI programs as one-and-done processes instead of ongoing commitments.</p><p> - Pressure to meet numerical targets rather than focusing on the human aspect of equity and inclusion.</p><p>- Components of Successful DEI Initiatives:</p><p> 1. Proper Funding:</p><p> - Adequate budgeting crucial for a successful DEI program.</p><p> - Costs can range from $25,000 to $450,000 for comprehensive DEI initiatives.</p><p> 2. Clear Objectives:</p><p> - Establishing key performance indicators (KPIs) for measuring success.</p><p> - Aligning DEI programs with overall strategic plans.</p><p> 3. Executive Buy-In:</p><p> - Executive support and resources are essential for DEI leaders.</p><p> - Promised support must be provided for successful DEI programs.</p><p> 4. Diversity Planning Tools:</p><p> - Utilizing analytics for transparency in hiring practices, compensation, and other critical areas.</p><p>- Importance of Supporting DEI Leaders:</p><p> - Building a diverse, equitable, and inclusive organization is a business imperative.</p><p> - Organizations need to focus resources, including funding, on DEI programs and leaders for genuine success.</p><p> - People analytics and diversity planning tools can aid in tracking and communicating progress.</p><p>This report highlights the challenges faced by CDOs, the failure of some DEI programs, and emphasizes the need for proper support, resources, and strategic planning for successful diversity initiatives.</p><p><br /></p>Mrinal Kranthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04106952064550075987noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4679554747074708240.post-58868095419618909702023-12-07T13:13:00.005+05:302023-12-07T13:39:06.975+05:30From Poultry farming to the Employer Branding Strategist Recruiter! Columbus required! <p><span style="font-family: arial;">Imagine, you are a 50 people company//team/GCC unit, etc. and growing 30% YoY on people and attrition rate is conservatively kept at 10%! In 3rd year, you will be ~85 people- 12 people= ~73 people! This means nearly 50% of the company is new people (less than 1.5 year of experience). </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">In absence of an entrenched employee listening system, we lose out on lots of crucial conversations, that could have easily fed action-items, that would have averted crisis and improved employee engagement!</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Talking about Perceptyx--</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://www.perceptyx.com/">Perceptyx - Employee Surveys, Consultation & People Analytics</a> <-This is what Perceptyx does. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Why they do this is here->They do this because they found this in their survey-</span></p><h1 style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #040725; font-family: "Proxima Nova", sans-serif; font-size: 50px; line-height: 1.1; margin: 0px 0px 1.4rem; text-align: center; white-space: balance;"><a href="https://blog.perceptyx.com/news-research-one-third-of-employees-are-working-dead-report" target="_blank">One Third of All Employees Are ‘Working Dead’ — Unhappy, Unmotivated, and Staying Put</a>! 👀</h1><div><span style="font-family: arial;">Having said all that above, I am here to talk about Recruitment Marketing or Talent Marketing? Or Employer Branding and how does this help a firm hire the identified talent defeating other competing firms! I wrote an article on Branding yesterday after listening to some Branding Gurus from the best of branding, marketing firms! Check that article here- <a href="https://krantmrinal.blogspot.com/2023/12/does-our-brand-affiliation-influence.html#more">Reflections--the stoic way!: Does our brand affiliation, influence our personality or behavior? Yes, that's the whole purpose, right? Huh! (krantmrinal.blogspot.com)</a></span></div><div><br /></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">Check pictures below- They are the platforms and services that Perceptyx offers. Qualtrics, Universum, Walker Information, Gallup Surveys, etc. do things similar to it! </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">So, let's talk some obvious facts! </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">Recruiters at best are tele sellers today. Yes, even at best of the fortune 500 firms! IT firms, especially the services one's are the worst! There, what they do in the name of recruiting is at par with poultry farming! Feed-fatten-harvest! This is poultry, not talent way! </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">A tad better step would have been a marketer role, but they in the name of marketing, go to LinkedIn and share the job with a rabid post. No wonder, they get the same treatment! 99% junk and 1% you will not be able to start with, they are too good! </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">You are paying your recruiter and recruitment managers too much in the name of a low input-low output chore! Even if you wish to hold on to mediocrity and keep breeding it, at least do RPO or automate the process! By being cast in the past, you may only be making the <b>Working Dead</b> community grow larger and harrowing! </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">They are worth every single penny if they did the following: </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">Check platform below called ASK/DIALOGUE, ETC- Yes, they are about the employees. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">Imagine, if recruiters were having a platform where they had opportunity to capture candidate ASK about career, i.e. meat/juice in the role, brand, flexibility-aka diversity, opportunities to learn, fail, grow, mobility, change track, do sponsored sabbatical for education or hobby, that she is looking at the work? If platform captured a dialogue with them when they are identified for interviewing, and then at each stage of their hiring and at stage where they take a decision to accept offer then join or not and same for company's decision to offer or not or offer a repurposed role, etc. Company's flexibility! </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">Asking for 5-point feedback on their sense of feelings during the interview.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">Similarly, when recruiters are building their farms! How are they growing their networks, both widening, elevating catchment? </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">The last very important point is the candidate feedback that recruiter's capture and using them to improve interviewing process, that may include all aspects of assessments, interviewing, candidate experience, etc. </span></div><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgRGVTwYuAXuDTd7uLWUecWG4mZo-szTHdn9vwIGwmjiLpaupxjROQBJnML9tPZCwm3NDWVrIvA3EyLjKcG8dgbAiHy22ooVtAskkocszSb3n-R7OHSImO_Z7j1rkzN09fpEf1J4xAvlUGIz70dQVM_QsOL4iAzA8oMBKA8qaMWxWmWp3XB5YvUB-l9fOOI" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="569" data-original-width="1791" height="102" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgRGVTwYuAXuDTd7uLWUecWG4mZo-szTHdn9vwIGwmjiLpaupxjROQBJnML9tPZCwm3NDWVrIvA3EyLjKcG8dgbAiHy22ooVtAskkocszSb3n-R7OHSImO_Z7j1rkzN09fpEf1J4xAvlUGIz70dQVM_QsOL4iAzA8oMBKA8qaMWxWmWp3XB5YvUB-l9fOOI" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgbJ3cmEUGaSDyZgXz0UnYk2kHfPzZDaOIwaSd7s6Y6qZCySUveJXerixhvyFtDiLaCZRZB7-fPNLAfLx-ggr5pGzxHMiGGKjILlWLQjb3cGPBSX5hnsYRsNj_EP5GWI3nfDuPO63VuMorVXsa4frVoqE25BOid4xvZDauIW8SCOI3Ch9ykcaQr3v7Np6-l" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="510" data-original-width="1759" height="93" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgbJ3cmEUGaSDyZgXz0UnYk2kHfPzZDaOIwaSd7s6Y6qZCySUveJXerixhvyFtDiLaCZRZB7-fPNLAfLx-ggr5pGzxHMiGGKjILlWLQjb3cGPBSX5hnsYRsNj_EP5GWI3nfDuPO63VuMorVXsa4frVoqE25BOid4xvZDauIW8SCOI3Ch9ykcaQr3v7Np6-l" width="320" /></a></div><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">If your recruiters are not doing the above steps, you can outsource recruiting remorseless for God's sake! Save your company! </span><p></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">If your recruiters are not talking about DNA, EVPs and creating a genuine impact for the employer brand while scouting for talent in social space, they are mere low-end coordinators or admin assistants! </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Let's change the end-to-end recruitment definition! These processes can be automated with built-in feedback involving a collaborative hiring platform, where all hiring folks can collaborate on an open platform and pushing, asking, questioning, challenging, expediting or repurposing any decision! Let's democratize hiring and make it more transparent, fair and agile with high level of accountability by an ombudsman and a regulator, keeping hiring ethics and employer branding promises intact! </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">So, tele callers, poultry farmers, admin assistants, recruiting is not that close to what you thought it was!</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Recruiting is a strategy as closer to business success as any other key metric! </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Recruitment is done by the dumbest in most places, doesn't mean, it cannot be unshackled! </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Let's make hiring strategic! </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Hiring is for the smartest but in HR's social hierarchy, it is at the bottom, left for the marginalized! Want to do a reality check? Ask your HRBPs (method actors?), L&D folks (the sorcerers or high priestess?) and C&B (sorry, Total Rewards,, better still that Excel guy who knew V look up and macros) folks to move to recruiting and they will instantly feel 3-talaaqed! I hope you can bear with the humor! </span></p>Mrinal Kranthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04106952064550075987noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4679554747074708240.post-56318998090437991762023-12-06T15:59:00.003+05:302024-02-28T06:11:49.717+05:30Does our brand affiliation, influence our personality or behavior?

More than map, compass is more important as it helps the course to the North Star, while plugged into its DNA!</b></p><p><b>Compass addresses needs to realign in dynamic market, new marketplaces, company's new avatars and rebranding, 2.0, 3.0 etc... diversified or divested, etc....all part of strategy you know. </b></p><p><b>How does this alignment work? -Through Discovery and definition -Direction and Delivery -<u>4D process-Used to arrive at DNA messaging</u>!

Being disengaged is not against engagement with the org purpose, or one's role, job etc . Or being oblivious or ignorant of one's tasks. There is still the feeling of belonging and making a difference, but it is self driven not org driven. </span></b></div><div><b><span><br></span></b></div><p></p><p>This disengagement is due to missing links, that culture builds! Leaders create and promote core values in thoughts, speech and action! </p><p>Branding is not marketing! If branding was marketing, it was a department's task. Branding is done by all and every employee by creating consistent, coherent, longitudinal, omni-channel experience for anyone who interacts with the brand! So, people are at the core of creating and sustaining brand! Employer branding is the same! Talent/Recruitment Marketing is a way to mobilize communication (aka messaging) to the marketplace, with values that brand resonates with! Communication as marketing is full of, gets noticed (visuals/noise, etc.) while messaging is a narrowed approach to communicate to a select/identified audience with the communication that matters to them and needs their attention and helps them associate with the brand and connect to do business! </p><p>Smart employer branding teams are very conscious of building their brand and not fall prey to the vanity metrics! A company may have 100 or more brands/products/services and maybe just 10 of them are power brands, marketing will still be showing same ROIs, through sales growth but in Recruitment Marketing, only number of hires is not the Real metric. The real metric is quality of hire, sustained attraction and engagement, employee referral, etc. Penguins hire penguins! </p><p>Is Recruitment Marketing same as Talent Marketing? Is there anything called Talent Marketing? What's your thought? </p><p>Imagine if it was. Perceptions drive brand recognition. Perceptions overtime become reality! </p><p>A new hire becomes Talent, when he proves his worth! Not every art of Leonardo Da Vinci or Mozart or Shakespeare created brand Vinci or Mozart or Shakespeare! Similarly, companies showcase their talent to attract clients and other talent.</p><p>Talent produces enviable work, not just work. Enviable works are marketed as identity builders, differentiators and uniqueness creators. Someone said in a conversation, McKinsey is a brand because, it has use cases, models (aka capabilities, as is) and people (aka capabilities, as unfolds) and all of them are on the top deck of being looked up to! </p><p>When we talk of brand Airforce, we picture mighty fighter jets and battle hardy fighter pilots! When we picture top management consulting firm, we picture power-dressed, super confident Consultants on swanky workspaces with clients listening to them! So, Air Force or Management Consulting firms, they are all leveraging and showcasing power of Talent marketing/talent branding!

Deep listening is like the refined filter mechanism that does scientific listening as collecting high value data for further data warehousing and analytics. Code to EE and Business Outcomes emanate from what employees are speaking on and about. Review/community platforms like Glassdoor and Reddit are designed to capture EE in a certain format. Data there is of high quality and importance, and they must be captured to build a Big Data warehouse, before we do analysis and modeling and reporting and insights building or writing Call To Action (CTA)/Activation plans as discussed in below passages. <br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUHh61PIt52DcPPuJxhsFQ6OagC-RoxgI7R3TFCM_ku3Os4p0KOwjG6UHn8L8HzdZMsh4bmU6TLiVmCYbIdgksr7vN7mJr2Dc7HbFh2VN5vj2yY5S3ctcPLnwVr7OaKGSCkzA2M4Yxy6lRSG2gSLihk9CaHRRl6XgA9dX2R1ecKLW-lHZeJF4qr1X8mR0t/s960/Qualitrcs%20Survey%20of%201000%20CHROs%20report%20on%20XM.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="720" data-original-width="960" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUHh61PIt52DcPPuJxhsFQ6OagC-RoxgI7R3TFCM_ku3Os4p0KOwjG6UHn8L8HzdZMsh4bmU6TLiVmCYbIdgksr7vN7mJr2Dc7HbFh2VN5vj2yY5S3ctcPLnwVr7OaKGSCkzA2M4Yxy6lRSG2gSLihk9CaHRRl6XgA9dX2R1ecKLW-lHZeJF4qr1X8mR0t/w400-h300/Qualitrcs%20Survey%20of%201000%20CHROs%20report%20on%20XM.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>In above picture we can see a culture element as we know Singapore is a compliance driven market and culturally, run by rules and partly leader centric organizations and so bit top-down!

proposition,” or EVP: what employees get for what
they give. “Gives” come in many flavors—time,
effort, experience, ideas. “Gets” include tangible
rewards, the experience of working in a company,
the way its leadership helps employees, and the
substance of the work.</div><div>If your EVP
is truly stronger than the competition’s, you
will attract and retain the best talent. But for
three reasons, few companies have EVPs that
meaningfully help them win this war</div><div>1. NOT DISTINCTIVE: Work for Google if you want to face
complex challenges, for Virgin if Richard Branson’s
leadership stirs you, or for Amgen if you aspire to
“defeat death.”</div><div>2. NOT TARGETED'. What kind of skills and roles are you hiring as key talent. Your EVP shall target them as inspiring and meaningful proposition. Not what sells. </div><div>3. NOT REAL: An attractive EVP cooked up by HR and
pushed through PR used to help secure the best
talent. In the long term, however, this was always a
losing proposition, since great people would quickly
become disillusioned if the reality didn’t measure
up.</div><div>Sites such as Glassdoor or
Job Advisor offer peer ratings and reviews of what
it’s really like to work for a company. Your EVP can’t
be spin—it has to be distinctive, targeted, and real. </div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEj12CWAtimwvRg0J0kGGE-OZF28JyKegh-FNnDfObrsRfSEMn5Ms1ST4g0Mkrdyedeba3W1Fmng1H6lZVXl-gkO8YOTPMcEdATLcuxPfbQVd4C_WmFKPtsUugyTflrcyPU38OGsBiXaY8vps7PYDCjHeQt3VFFr_VIQG58eOKbps0q1ysUj3xL9NlCpwWBr" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="545" data-original-width="1004" height="348" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEj12CWAtimwvRg0J0kGGE-OZF28JyKegh-FNnDfObrsRfSEMn5Ms1ST4g0Mkrdyedeba3W1Fmng1H6lZVXl-gkO8YOTPMcEdATLcuxPfbQVd4C_WmFKPtsUugyTflrcyPU38OGsBiXaY8vps7PYDCjHeQt3VFFr_VIQG58eOKbps0q1ysUj3xL9NlCpwWBr=w640-h348" width="640" /></a></div><br /><br /></div>Mrinal Kranthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04106952064550075987noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4679554747074708240.post-68289473072275075512023-11-12T16:20:00.000+05:302023-11-12T16:20:07.840+05:30Leadership assessment tests Hogan, SHL, The Leadership Circle, Gallup Strengths<p> Leadership assessment tests!

Leadership Circle Profile is unique because it is the only 360° assessment that measures Creative Competencies and Reactive Tendencies, combining leadership’s inner and outer attributes. This 360-degree assessment feedback gives the leader greater insight into how they are perceived, including strengths and current limitations in their leadership effectiveness.</p><p style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
