Emerging Trends in Leadership Assessment
Friday, March 8, 2013
3:30-5:30pm
Rapid advancements in measurement technology and the explosive growth of the internet have led to a paradigm shift in the way we design and deliver leadership assessments. Technology-enabled assessment tools can be designed as theatrical, first-person stories—complete with a compelling organizational and situational backstory—to effectively measure potential, readiness and fit for leadership roles. This presentation will describe how technology-driven, immersive simulations can be effectively architected to help organizations fulfill their commitment to a robust and diverse talent pipeline for leadership positions.
