KNOWLEDGE OF SELF - The Profile XT

The Profile XT™
The Profile XT™ is a "Total person" assessment. It measures the job-related qualities that make a person productive - Thinking and Reasoning Style, Behavioral Traits, and Occupational Interests. It is convenient and easy to use on the Internet - no administrator or proctoring is required.

In the Golden Triangle, The Profile XT Coaching Report is used for self-improvement, coaching, and succession planning. Our clients tell us The Profile XT is three to five times more effective than any other assessment they have used. It is a versatile management tool that develops Job Match Patterns that can be customized by company, department, manager, position, geography, or any combination of these factors.


Job Match Patterns Make the Difference
Job Match Patterns are effective because they compare the qualities of your job candidates to the attributes of your most productive employees. The patterns tell you whether candidates are like or different from your top performers. A study published in the Harvard Business Review concluded that Job Match more accurately predicts job success than any of the commonly accepted factors, such as education, experience, or job training. Matching people so they fit the work they do builds productivity and job-satisfaction and diminish negative factors such as stress, tension, conflict, miscommunication, and costly employee turnover.


Easy to Use
The Profile XT is conveniently administered on the Internet, so you can assess employees and job candidates anywhere there is Internet access. Other administration options are available on request. Results are available immediately and can be shared with decision makers in any of your company's offices, anywhere in the world. You can retrieve any or all of the variety of Profile XT reports at no additional cost. Results are immediate thanks to computer technology and you get your requested reports in minutes.


Use with Complete Confidence
The Profile XT satisfies all requirements of the EEOC, the ADA, the DOL, and the Civil Rights Act. It was designed and developed to be specifically job-related and has been validated in accordance with American Psychological Association standards. The Profile XT is validated to be Age-blind, Gender-blind, and Ethnicity-blind. It measures only those factors relevant to selecting the best people to fit the requirements of specific jobs.


The Profile XT is the One to Use
The Profile XT is much more than an assessment. It gives you customized Job Match patterns, yields a percentage match when comparing a candidate to your top performers, provides a detailed positive analysis of the individuals you assess, and can provide thousands of "experienced" Job Match Patterns for use in developing your own patterns.

The Profile XT is the assessment to use for a thorough analysis of people, job responsibilities, and Job Match. It is an extremely valuable management tool that will help you build a stronger, more productive organization and reach your important goals because you are putting the best people in the best jobs.

KNOWLEDGE OF SKILLS - The CheckPoint 360 Competency Feedback System

The Profiles CheckPoint 360 Competency Feedback System is a multi-rater feedback process that provides managers and leaders with an opportunity to receive an evaluation of their job performance from the people around them – their boss, their peers, and the people whose work they supervise. From this feedback, managers can compare the opinions of others with their own perceptions, positively identify their strengths, and pinpoint the areas of their job performance that could be improved.

This assessment process is concerned with a manager’s job performance in eight skill clusters and 18 universal competencies, described as follows:

 
  • Communication
    • Listens to others
    • Processes information
    • Communicates effectively
  • Leadership

The Process
Each participant completes an evaluation, a process that takes about 30 minutes. They are guaranteed anonymity (except for the “Boss”) and urged to be honest and objective in their responses. Participants may complete their assignments via the Internet and results from all participants are compiled in a report that is returned to the manager.

Full Color Report
CheckPoint Reports have colorful graphs and charts as well as narrative descriptions of the results to help the manager read, understand, and effectively use the data for self-development. The report has a special personal growth section that coaches the manager and helps improve performance in development areas.

The CheckPoint 360 Competency Feedback System is an effective managerial development system that pays big dividends in improved performance.

There are three separate reports available: 

1. CheckPoint Competency Feedback Report

2. CheckPoint Comparison Feedback Report - Reports the results of two consecutive feedback sessions. The results are presented in a side-by-side format for easy comparison and analysis. Points of significant improvement or significant decrease in performance are identified for the reader to easily identify areas of concentration. 

3. CheckPoint Organizational Management Report - This report is a summary of the data from all of the individual CheckPoint 360° feedback reports from a selected group. It verifies individual alignment with the corporate vision, mission, purpose, and strategic goals. This analysis aids in charting a course to achieve organizational goals with purpose, clarity, and certainty.
