Partnering with organisations to customise assessments: BHP’s journey creating the Leaders Edge

11:10 AM - 12:10 PM

Promotional description

- Tired of hearing all the cool kids talk about ‘customised assessment’ and feeling too embarrassed to ask what it is?

- Searching for a way to identify competent, culturally diverse, innovative leaders with multi-generational appeal who show both culture-fit and culture-add during the “new normal”?

- Want a complete end-to-end concept you can present to your boss as 100% your idea while conveniently providing justification for attending this conference?

If you shouted ‘yes’ to all of the above, then we are 50% certain this is the workshop for you!

Come and join the team of external and in-house psychs who developed a tailored way to measure leadership potential. Here about the successes, “pivots” and pitfalls of creating a customised assessment.

Workshop participants will rotate around multiple tables that focus on a key part of the assessment development journey, such as:

o Building the internal business case
o Boosting participant experience through user centred design
o Selecting what to measure & how to measure it
o Changing & updating the assessment

Come to learn, reflect on how you might create your own assessment, and watch one of the co-presenters squirm when you ask a really hard question they hadn’t considered!

Learning outcomes

- Analyse multiple key stages from a customised assessment development process
- Demonstrate their psychometric cred by dropping the term ‘Differential Test Functioning’ in a sentence
- Apply the key learnings from this real-world example to their own organisation
- Pass the modern day ‘marshmallow test’ by avoiding social media for a whole hour
- Evaluate the suitability of using customised assessments in their own organisation
- Participants will actively learn through:
o Power napping through information on how this assessment was developed, key inflection points and outputs linked to the assessment
o Appearing smarter than their colleagues by asking insightful questions in larger and / or smaller group formats
o Creating compelling doodles on the structured self-reflection forms at each workshop table, which could also be used to shape their thinking around using customised assessments in their own organisation
