The Missing Half of Your Hiring Assessment

from Business Resources One

In this episode, Mike Voories from BR1 discusses a major oversight in how companies use personality assessments like DiSC during the hiring process. While many organizations focus on evaluating candidates, they often neglect to assess the managers and existing team dynamics. Mike underlines the importance of understanding the interaction between a new hire and their future team to prevent friction and enhance collaboration. He emphasizes that knowing both the candidate's and the team's profiles helps in making strategic hiring decisions, ultimately leading to higher performance and reduced workplace conflict. For companies looking to improve their hiring process, BR1 offers comprehensive support in running and interpreting assessments to build stronger, more cohesive teams. 00:00 The Missing Half of Your Hiring Assessment 01:41 The "One-Sided" Trap 03:03 You Have to Assess the Leader 04:30 The "Same-ness" Mistake 05:51 Turning Conflict Into Collaboration 07:10 This Is About ROI, Not Just HR 08:31 BR1 Can Help https://BusinessResourcesOne.com
