Technology now allows us to understand some of the “special” genes that we have inherited that could cause us problems in our future, like cancer, diabetes, or heart disease. This technology provides you information, in many cases, to proactively deal with an issue that has not yet become a problem. The earlier a problem is identified and treated, the better the prognosis.

Technology is also available to help us better understand the interviewee sitting across from us. Just like genetics testing, we can find out information about our candidate that could cause us people problems in our future, like co-worker conflict, lack of motivation, or poor productivity. There are three times when you can deal with people problems — before you hire them, while they are working for you, and when you let them go. The most inexpensive time you can deal with people problems is before you hire them. Once you hire them or have to let them go, dealing with a people problem can be very expensive. In other words, the earlier a problem is identified and treated, the better the prognosis.

The ProfileXT® (PXT) is the most technologically advanced, state-of-the-art system available today for measuring human potential and predicting job performance.  The ProfileXT has been completed by almost 600,000 people.  This large, statistical database of results is what everyone taking the PXT is compared.  The PXT assessment first compares an individual against the statistical database.  It can then measure how well an individual fits specific jobs, or specific talent pools, or specific leadership positions, all in your organization.  The “job matching” feature of the PXT is unique, and it enables you to evaluate an individual relative to the qualities required to successfully perform in a specific job or a specific pool of jobs, unique to your company.

This 45-minute, online assessment reveals consistent, in-depth, and objective insight into an individual’s thinking and reasoning style, relevant behavioral traits, occupational interests, and match to specific jobs in your organization.  It helps your managers and you interview and select people who have the highest probability of being successful in a role, and provides practical recommendations for coaching them to maximum performance.  It also gives your organization consistent language and metrics to support strategic workforce and succession planning, talent management, and reorganization efforts.

Best of all, the PXT is extremely cost effective, and the reports are written in plain language that do not require a specialist to interpret the results.  Learn more about the ProfileXT on my website:  http://www.royalmountainresources.com/products-and-services/profile-xt .
