Discover How 夜色直播 Uses Psychometric Assessments at Scale to Reimagine Talent Management
Earlier this week, our CEO Caitlin MacGregor joined Ben Eubanks on the HR Tech Talks livestream to talk about how 夜色直播 is using psychometric assessments at scale to reimagine talent management.
They talked about the talent data that every organization needs that only 夜色直播 has, and how taking a more human-centric approach to talent management sets both employees and companies up to thrive.
Here are some highlights from their discussion:
On playing to your employee鈥檚 strengths....
鈥淓veryone is exceptional in their own way,鈥� said Ben. 鈥淭here isn鈥檛 a right or wrong answer, but it鈥檚 about finding what your strength is, what your value is, and where you fit into the bigger puzzle.鈥�
When managing talent, Caitlin stressed that it鈥檚 important to learn about what drives employees and what drains them, so that they can focus on the activities that give them energy. If they鈥檙e focusing a lot of their time on activities that are physically or mentally draining, they鈥檒l feel like their batteries are drained. Instead, she said that it鈥檚 important to give people opportunities to spend their time on activities in their jobs that energize them and give them a sense of fulfillment.
She added that psychometric assessments, which are typically used for executives and high-volume hiring, are the key to understanding and unlocking the exceptional qualities that exist within each employee. 鈥淥nce you have this data on your people,鈥� she explained, 鈥測ou can apply it to every talent decision.鈥�
On aligning talent to business needs in a rapidly changing world...
As we face constant disruption in the world, Caitlin talked about the importance of aligning talent to business needs, and how assessments are they key to making that happen. 鈥淵ou need to understand your talent and you need to understand the business needs,鈥� she explained, 鈥渁nd you need to map them together.鈥� She emphasized that 夜色直播鈥檚 Talent Resilience Platform leverages assessments to empower organizations to do both, so that they can align talent to business needs at speed and scale.
On helping teams work better together...
Another benefit of understanding people as individuals are the insights it gives leaders about how to manage their teams. 鈥淚n order to effectively execute as a team,鈥� Caitlin said, 鈥測ou need to be aligned with what the goals are and how you鈥檙e working together to get the work done.鈥� She explained that giving leaders insight into each employee鈥檚 talents allows them to figure out how the team can best work together, and that 夜色直播鈥檚 platform gives every leader in an organization those valuable insights to help their team thrive.
On looking beyond past experiences to unlock potential...
Caitlin talked about how important it is to see employees for more than what they鈥檝e done in the past. Using an analogy about picking apples from a barrel, she told the story of an employee who went from being an underwriter to a product manager because she had the behavioral competencies necessary to succeed in the job.
鈥淭hat鈥檚 an incredible story,鈥� Ben replied. 鈥淲hen you鈥檙e reaching into a barrel of apples to find the next one, the bottom of the barrel doesn鈥檛 mean they鈥檙e bad, it just means they鈥檙e not near you.鈥�
Caitlin explained that 夜色直播 helps organizations see talent differently, focusing on opening up their talent pools to include people they might not have considered before. She emphasized that it鈥檚 all about screening in people for opportunities based on what they can do, if given the opportunity.
