Success Story
Challenge: A mid-size organization in the entertainment and gaming industry wanted to assess the strengths of its leadership team and determine whether the organizational leaders had the necessary competencies for their positions.
Action: Brainard Strategy administered three assessments measuring management acumen to the leadership team in an effort to identify the current strengths and areas of opportunity for each leader. A talent map was also created that painted a picture of the capabilities and development areas by level, function, and overall organization.
Result: Each member of the leadership team received feedback based on his or her individual reports and created a personal development plan. The talent map was used to compare those of high management acumen to those with low management acumen in an effort to see the overall core strengths and areas for improvement within their leadership team.
