Psychometric Assessments
In the corporate environment, psychometric assessments are used in the personnel selection and recruitment process. In teams, it provides extensive information on interpersonal dynamics, leadership styles and personnel motivation. The data, obtained from such assessments, is often utilised to develop or improve systems to ensure organizational success.
In the educational environment, psychometric testing help adolescents and students understand themselves at a deeper level, and develop awareness of their unique abilities and strengths. Assessments of this nature will provide results that are useful in career guidance, and provide clarity on the student’s unique profile of strengths and areas for development. If an area of development is impeding on academic achievement, interventions are recommended to support students.
In the clinical environment, psychometric tests offer individuals an opportunity for self-knowledge and self-growth. To quote Dr. Maya Angelou, “when we you know better, do better.” By investing in psychometric testing, you essentially invest in a process that will allow you to observe the complexity of your own behaviour, recognize it, and become more open to growth.
