We conduct individual assessments and management audits to assist important personnel decisions. We appraise the competences and the potential of the chosen internal and external candidates in comparison to a defined requirements profile and meaningful external benchmarks.
Our work mitigates the risk of poor staffing decisions in selection and appointment processes and the reduces the considerable follow-up costs that they can entail – in particular for strategic or high-profile management and executive positions.
Sophisticated management diagnostics can increase the likelihood of success for strategic realignment or merger and integration projects. Our work gives experienced managers detailed feedback and a sense for where they are in their development.
It is a widely accepted truth that executives will receive less and less genuinely detailed feedback about how they are perceived the higher up they move the corporate hierarchy. This is a side-effect of the power accumulated in their functions and personalities.
The consultants of aestimamus apply a discrete process to produce feedback on the participant’s unique strengths and areas for improvement – also in comparison to other executives (benchmarking). This helps executives work on their blind spots and stop their often exceptional strengths and qualities from being affected by the slow creep of hidden weaknesses.
