An upwards movement of 2 levels in the targeted competencies in 90% of the participants in a high potential development program for an Indian MNC in the Engineering & Construction sector.
The Business Context
A large India based MNC conglomerate had a pool of middle managers from which it wanted to identify and develop the high potentials.
As part of their larger succession planning exercise, the organization was looking for a behavioural-science based development approach.
The objective was to develop in-house leadership capability and deploy the same across multiple projects.
The organization wanted to partner with an organization that would do both assessment and the development.
Our Approach
GrowthSqapes conducted an in-person Assessment Centre using psychometric and cognitive tools to measure leadership potential in the candidates.
The chosen candidates were enrolled in a multi-interface competency development journey of 1 year based on experiential learning.
Projects and assignments were allocated at a group level along with an individual coach for each participant throughout the journey.
After 1 year a mini-Assessment Centre was conducted to gauge the needle movement and give role recommendations for each participant.
