Rook Tree Careers - Rook Tree

Rook Tree offer a range of career management services which can be broken down into the following groupings.

360 Degree Feedback & Personality Profiling

360 feedback is a method of performance appraisal which gathers feedback from a number of sources, including peers, direct reports, more senior colleagues and customers. This variety of feedback can offer line managers a wide-ranging perspective and help to make performance management a more objective and fair process.

Personality profiling, sometimes referred to as psychometric testing or psychological profiling – is a means of measuring an individual’s personality in a particular situation. It is not a measure of intelligence or ability – but of behaviour.

You can use it in a number of ways at your work.

Staff Appraisals

Recruitment

Are you recruiting? Then you should know that there are some types that will thrive in the role you have and there are some that will struggle. This is regardless of their qualifications or experience. An individual’s personality type will determine how they cope with the particular work environment you offer.

Ideally you want to hire “Naturals” over “Forced Fits”.

A “Natural” will find your work environment compatible with their profile. They will have more opportunity to work to their natural strengths.

“Naturals” will stick the job longer and perform better.

“Forced Fits” will always struggle with your work environment. They have to invest a lot of energy just to cope with your environment. This is why PeopleMaps developed the Success Profile Builder. This helps you determine what your work environment is and which types are most likely to cope with it.

In Coaching

Profiling has been described as the bedrock of all personal development. Difficult to imagine any journey of personal development that didn’t involve some form of introspection or deeper understanding of self. For many years we have seen coaches use personality reports to help their clients understand themselves.
