Highly engaged employees actively and enthusiastically work together to pursue your company goals. Harrison Assessments provides a robust, analytical framework for hiring, engaging, developing and retaining people who are likely to thrive in your culture and make a positive contribution to advancing your purpose.
Unlike personality profiling tools that categorise someone into fixed quadrants, Harrison is instead very granular, measuring 175 different behavioural traits and 10 primary engagement factors about the individual. This makes it more actionable than other tools. Depending on whether it’s being used for recruitment, development or engagement, this raw data is surfaced through specific reports, each with a different focus.
+Data-Informed Recruitment
Harrison Assessments is built on enjoyment-performance theory – which states that when you recruit people who enjoy the behavioural traits required for the role, they are far more likely to succeed. So, knowing before you hire, what traits a candidate will naturally gravitate to and which traits they will likely avoid, gives you solid data to help inform your hiring decision. For recruitment, we typically use the following 5 reports combined with a detailed debrief with the hiring manager:
Job Success Analysis
Maps an individual’s traits onto a specific role to help managers determine how suitable the person is for a particular job - grouped by essential traits, desirable traits and traits to avoid. This report includes a suitability score for the candidate. (sample reports)
Traits and Definitions
This report distills about 50 of the most important traits from ‘life themes’ down to traits the individual would ‘prefer not to do’. It also identifies the individual's most important engagement factors. (sample reports)
Paradox Graph
Based on Paradox Theory, 12 pairs of ‘paradoxical’ traits – traits which look like opposites, but are in fact complementary, and re-enforce each other – are graphed so you can determine how flexible the individual's behaviour style is. In this report, stress related behavior is also flagged. (sample reports)
How to Attract this Candidate
Identifies an individual’s key leverage points that will help you construct a package that will attract them to your organisation. (sample reports)
Interview Guide
A set of custom questions, based on the candidate’s likely fit for a specific role, designed to help an interviewer explore potential job specific strengths and derailerers. (sample reports)
If you have a Culture Code, we can also build a custom Values Map which maps Harrison Assessment behavioural traits to your organisation's values. Used in recruitment this map tells you what values a candidate is likely to express naturally and what values are likely to be a struggle. This data can inform your hiring decisions by helping you choose candidates who are likely to thrive in your work environment and positively contribute towards your culture. (sample report)
