Poor decision-making costs you money, time and missed opportunities
Companies typically try to reduce risk by establishing basic requirements (experience, education and skills), filtering out those who do not meet standards & then identifying the remaining top talent.
Companies who hire for the future ask for more: they require an objective assessment of applicant thinking skills. They want to hire the best thinkers.
An evaluation of the candidate’s tendency to make decision-making mistakes provides critical input for reducing risks. An assessment of the reasoning mindset identifies candidates with the mental discipline and lifelong learning orientation that lead them to become successful, contributing members of the team.
Companies that insist on hiring people with strong thinking skills are investing in their future.
Decision-making skills determine business success
Every day, at all levels of every business, employees make decisions and are asked to solve problems. Those cumulative decisions have a direct impact on bottom line.
Imagine the impact on your business if:
- Decisions were data-driven;
- Long-term and short-term outcomes were equally valued;
- Problems were correctly identified;
- Opportunities were anticipated;
- Critical factors were evaluated thoroughly;
- Risks were objectively analyzed;
- All reasonable options were thoughtfully compared;
- Strong problem-solving skills were highly valued throughout the organization;
- Employees regularly contributed practical and affordable suggestions;
- Employees were committed to excellence and to the success of the organization.
Companies depend on their best thinkers to make the decisions that drive business growth.
Every hiring decision is high stakes
To build a workforce capable of these kinds of contributions employers hire people with the core reasoning skills and thinking mindset to solve problems effectively and to make decisions sensibly. In the end, your success depends on the work ethic and the thinking skills of the employees at every level of your organization.
