Multidimensional Leadership Diagnostic

Leadership represents a critical domain where precise assessment can transform the trajectory of an entire organization. Our Multidimensional Leadership Diagnostic (MLD) service offers an in-depth analysis of current and potential leadership capabilities within your organization.

Methodological Approach

Our diagnostic examines ten strategic areas of leadership growth, establishing an objective score measurable over time. This scientific approach evaluates sixteen fundamental leadership competencies and fourteen systemic capabilities essential for navigating today’s complex environments. The methodology integrates 360-degree assessments, gathering perspectives from superiors, peers, and subordinates, to offer a complete view of leadership capabilities.

Dimensions Evaluated

The diagnostic explores four fundamental principles that determine a leader’s effectiveness:

    1. openness, allowing the flow of ideas and information;
    2. diversity, fostering innovation through multiple perspectives;
    3. depth, ensuring strong professional relationships;
    4. and resources, identifying critical networks for organizational success.

Each dimension is analyzed through observable behavioral indicators and scientifically validated measures.

Customized Cognitive Assessment for Professionals

Our Customized Cognitive Assessment for Professionals (CCAP) is an essential tool for optimizing individual and collective performance.

Assessment Methodology

Our self-administered digital cognitive assessment precisely measures twenty-two essential cognitive skills, including working memory, divided attention, planning, processing speed, and visual-motor coordination. Adaptable to different professional contexts, this assessment uses a battery of specialized tests to create a comprehensive and personalized cognitive profile.

Cognitive Domains Explored

The assessment covers five major cognitive domains:

    1. attention, examining concentration ability and distraction management;
    2. memory, evaluating short and long-term retention of critical information;
    3. coordination, measuring movement precision and action synchronization;
    4. perception, analyzing sensory information processing;
    5. and reasoning, evaluating complex problem-solving and decision-making.

Professional Applications

The assessment results help identify cognitive functions to strengthen for optimizing professional performance. For positions requiring sustained attention, the assessment specifically measures concentration and vigilance. For roles requiring excellent coordination, it precisely evaluates visual-motor capabilities. This targeted approach allows organizations to optimize the match between their employees’ cognitive profiles and the specific requirements of their functions.

Comprehensive Organizational Diagnostic

The Comprehensive Organizational Diagnostic (COD) is a fundamental service for any organization facing challenges related to its operations, resources, or strategic development.

Analysis Process

Our diagnostic follows a rigorous seven-step methodology, allowing an in-depth analysis of your organization’s internal and external mechanisms. The process begins with diagnostic planning, followed by comprehensive data collection through document analysis and interviews with key stakeholders. Analysis of the collected data identifies gaps between business strategy, work organization, and corporate culture.

Dimensions Evaluated

The diagnostic examines five critical organizational dimensions:

    1. operational structure, evaluating the effectiveness of processes and workflows;
    2. financing structures, analyzing the economic viability of operations;
    3. governance, examining decision-making mechanisms;
    4. internal management policies, measuring their impact on performance;
    5. and human resource practices, evaluating their alignment with strategic objectives.

Internal and External Perspectives

Our approach combines an in-depth internal diagnostic based on document analysis and interviews with key personnel and an external diagnostic that examines the organization’s positioning in its ecosystem. This dual perspective ensures a holistic understanding of organizational challenges, allowing for precise strategic recommendations tailored to your specific context.

Strategic Skills Assessment

The Strategic Skills Assessment (SSA) represents an essential approach for precisely measuring the level and quality of your employees’ skills, thus aligning your human capital with your strategic objectives.

Assessment Methodology

Our assessment adopts a structured approach in three distinct phases:

    1. an in-depth understanding of the context in which the employee operates,
    2. establishing an evaluation grid with measurable criteria,
    3. and producing a detailed report highlighting achieved objectives and development opportunities.

This systematic methodology ensures an objective and actionable assessment of professional skills.

Categories of Skills Evaluated

The assessment examines two major categories of skills:

    1. technical skills (hard skills), easily quantifiable such as degrees, mastery of technological tools, or languages spoken;
    2. and behavioral skills (soft skills), more nuanced but equally crucial, such as time management, flexibility, communication, and leadership.

This balanced approach provides a complete profile of professional capabilities.
