Salvaged Project
A software project was slated for termination because it was over budget, and over a year behind schedule. After implementing our Integrated Project Team process, the project was turned around and delivered in less than five months, salvaging a $20 million investment.
Benchmarking a Role
A fast-growing, worldwide company wanted to fill a key senior executive role. Core Management Solutions worked with senior managers for half a day to establish a clear and measurable benchmark for that role. Within one hour of beginning the benchmarking process, the CEO said, “I cannot imagine having tried to fill this key position without going through this process to determine the critical soft skill (personal skill) needs of the role.” They went on to hire for the role based on the clear model of the job needs.
Finding the Right Person
A major software developer was hiring a number of people for the role of Quality Assurance Coordinator. When they used our Talent Selection System to benchmark the needs of the job, they were able to see how some of their people were not a good match for the job. This was correlated to performance in the role and linked to a supervisor who had a tendency to hire people like himself instead of people who were a good fit for the position. |
