Independent psychometric assessment

Psychometric assessment.
Independent.
Online. Personal.

We help HR leaders and managers develop the right people and make better decisions about them. We work with leading psychometric instruments and choose the one that fits your question.

In the debriefing, this becomes a conversation: Why is delegating difficult when decisiveness is high? That is where development begins.

The starting point

People development is usually well intended. It is rarely measurable.

Many companies invest in training and programmes without knowing where their people actually stand. Without that baseline there is no direction, and development comes down to chance.

On top of that, most providers sell one instrument rather than a solution. These are the three sentences we hear most often in first conversations, and how we deal with them.

What we hear
I do not know which instrument fits our situation.

Our answer: We are not tied to any provider. In the first conversation we clarify what you need and recommend the instrument that fits, including when that is the cheaper one.

What we hear
I have to justify this internally.

Our answer: You get results your leadership team understands. Specific development areas and specific next steps, not personality prose.

What we hear
I do not want a vendor who sells me a tool.

Our answer: We do not hand over a tool. We stay with the whole process, from choosing the instrument to the debriefing and the follow-up eight weeks later.

Leadership programme

With PD on Demand, we built a leadership programme that creates real impact. Our senior leaders complete a Harrison assessment and receive individual feedback on their strengths and development areas through 1:1 coaching. This makes our internal leadership programme more targeted and relevant to the people it is designed for.

Talent programme

Together with PD on Demand, we created a talent programme that makes appreciation visible. After an individual assessment and debriefing, the leader, participant and PD develop a personal development plan that is transparent, concrete and motivating. It strengthens retention and development at the same time.

Our position

Our position on AI.

We use AI where it makes the process simpler: analysis, preparation and documentation. The conversation itself remains human. People develop better when they speak with someone who listens and asks useful questions.

That will not change.

Frequently asked questions

What HR leaders ask us most often.

The results belong to the person assessed. They receive the full report and decide what is shared. We process all data in line with applicable data protection requirements and retain it only as long as necessary. We share results only to the extent agreed in advance, never with uninvolved third parties. The providers used for scheduling and contact are listed in our privacy policy. We can provide a processing overview before a project starts if you need it for internal approval.
We decide that together in the first conversation. We are not tied to one provider and work with Harrison, PI Company and Hogan. Development and talent deployment call for different instruments than senior-level selection. If an approach is not right for your question, we will say so.
An individual assessment is usually completed within two weeks. The assessment takes 20 to 40 minutes, depending on the instrument, and the debriefing around 90 minutes. The person receives the development plan after the conversation. If you need it faster, tell us. Because we work online, we can respond at short notice.
We work exclusively with validated psychometric instruments based on established models and regularly normed. That distinguishes them from personality quizzes without a robust basis. Certified coaches and psychologists interpret the results; they are not interpreted automatically.
Scepticism is justified and we take it seriously. The frame matters: this is about development, not judgement. The person receives their results first and discusses them with us, rather than receiving a report by email. In practice, the conversation usually changes the perspective. At tesa SE, 96% of participants rated the conversation valuable or very valuable.
No. There is no licence, subscription or minimum volume. You pay per person and service. Larger cohorts receive a lower rate, but you are not committing to anything. Starting with one person is completely fine.
