Quick Certainty Centre

RAPID DECISIVE ANSWER ABOUT INDIVIDUAL COMPETENCIES SO THAT A CLEAR SELECTION OR PROMOTION DECISION CAN BE TAKEN.
 

Signs from the client

"We have a highly promising candidate; there is just one small uncertainty that is stopping us from making a decision.”

“Despite a very positive interview we have the feeling that the candidate is keeping some things back.”

“Our candidate has excellent/functional expertise, but what are his/her intrinsic people management skills given that he/she has not had a chance yet to develop in this area?”

Our confirmed belief
Success in organisations depends on small details more than once. Getting the right people into the right place is a frequently heard mantra for ensuring the organisation reaches its full strength. The story here goes further than pure skills and revolves more around conviction, values and attitudes.

As a recruitment manager you are in daily contact with internal and external candidates and attempt to gather as correct a picture of them as possible. However, we feel a hesitation about a specific element in someone’s story more than once. Then we too often allow ourselves to be led by our instinctive wish, fear or hope.

We can bring up specific items in a behavioural way from our expertise in assessing profiles so that they create the desired clarity for you.

Our proposal
Together with you we look for a correct, oriented outline in words of your hesitation. Based on this we determine a true-to-the-organisation setting and assignment to stimulate the candidate to show colour in his/her behaviour. An efficient, oriented programme that lets you acquire an insight into your candidate quickly is set up, depending on your specific question.

The unique aspect of our approach
Fit, fast & flexible. The Quick Certainty Centre creates a clear picture associated with a well-determined skill or possible derailer in an extremely short time frame. It takes place in:

  • A positive and appreciative climate where we start from the candidate’s intrinsic strengths.
  • A framework in which we give immediate feedback on what we see during the simulations. This leads to a rapid opening-up for reflection on this topic by the candidate and the HR/line manager.

Your question as well as the context in which this takes place are clarified based on a telephone intake. The Kaleido consultant makes a proposal for a simulation in which the desired skill/derailer can be triggered in a behaviour-oriented way.

After a brief introduction and preparation time, the candidate enters into a simulation with the Kaleido consultant. As an attentive watcher you observe and make a bridge to previously discussed points linked to this topic. You also link the observations to your organisational culture and the function-specific environment.

Space is created for reflection with all of the parties involved immediately after the simulation. The Kaleido consultant facilitates this process and ensures an appreciative, positive climate. Based on a clear observation, orientating reflection and an indication of possible opportunities and risks, you are enabled to make a fast, but justified decision about possible recruitment or promotion.

Added value for your organisation

  • You stay in the driver’s seat. You make your final decision based on your own observations during the simulation exercise. This enables you to switch gear quickly without a waiting period for a report and advice.
  • Through the short programme, the Quick Certainty Centre can also be held after office hours and in your business premises. This minimises your time investment as well as the candidate’s and makes it easier to involve line managers.
