Psychometrics 360 Assessment

The Psychometrics 360 and Psychometrics 360 Industrial instruments provide straightforward, intuitive, yet anonymous multi-source feedback to help employees quickly identify their strengths and developmental needs, helping them to drive their work performance in terms of competencies linked to employee effectiveness.

The tools recognise that people often display different behaviours based on the role of the person with whom they are interacting. To account for these differences, ratings are obtained from people with varied relationships to the participating employees. Possible sources of feedback ratings include supervisors, co-workers, direct reports, and customers. The feedback provides employees with ratings that indicate how others perceive their work-related behaviours within relationships that vary by characteristics such as expectations and balance of authority.

ASSESSMENT SCALES

The Psychometrics 360 measures 23 leadership competencies, while the Psychometrics 360 Industrial measures 24 leadership competencies. The extra competency, Acts to Uphold Safety is applicable in work settings where physical and environmental safety are key priorities, such as the mining/manufacturing/construction sectors.  

The competencies measured improves an employee’s self-awareness in three key areas:

• Work and Execution – works to high quality standards, achieves results efficiently, plans work activities, acts responsibly and with integrity, satisfies customers, acts to uphold safety, expresses ideas clearly in spoken form, manages stress

• Interacting with Others – coaches and develops others, empowers employees, fosters teamwork, displays cooperation and teamwork, encourages open dialogue, shows respect, inclusiveness and sensitivity, handles disagreement constructively, influences others

• Thinking and Deciding – gathers and analyses information, solve problems and makes decisions, mobilises activity around clear purpose, seeks innovation, displays flexibility, shows organisational awareness, learns skills and develops capabilities
