Case Study: Emerson
Identify and develop its high-potential talent
The Opportunity
With Emerson’s explosive growth in Latin America, the organization needed a way to identify and develop its high-potential talent throughout the region. They knew that to support their business growth, they would need to aggressively develop leaders in this fast-growing region.
Our Approach
While Emerson Latin America adopted proven development methods from other parts of their business, they partnered with Chapman & Co. for individualized feedback and development planning. Our work with Emerson comprised:
- Deploying our proven psychological assessment methodology to help these up-and-coming leaders understand their strengths and developmental needs.
- Using the competency-based tools of Korn-Ferry® to provide each participant with their own 360-degree feedback.
- Facilitating the feedback delivery and development planning process to help employees further hone their development needs.
The Result
- Over the past five years, over 200 high-potential managers throughout Latin America have participated in the three-module leadership development program.
- 79% of participants who have completed all three modules have been promoted.
- The organization’s senior management is confident that they can continue to staff leadership positions as the organization continues its rapid growth in the region.
Jordan WeberUsing Chapman & Co. testing has allowed us to get the hire right the first time, especially in screening sales candidates who work out in the field with a lot of autonomy. The reports are so accurate at describing the employee that it is scary. I highly recommend using their testing to truly understand the candidate you are considering hiring; you are sure to get much more out of the testing than what can be achieved from a traditional interview.
