Who's the best candidate for the job? What skill set needs improvement for career growth? Has the time come for a career transition? Powell & Wagner provides assessment and counseling to maximize hiring and retention decisions throughout the employment cycle.
No business today is too small or too complex to benefit from Powell & Wagner's corporate services. We pride ourselves in effectively tailoring our services to meet the particular needs of our clients. We are accustomed to working with company presidents, operations, sales and human resources departments. Our work can involve a single session or an ongoing plan of improvement.
Screening/Selection We apply a battery of screening tests and interviews to help our clients look beyond the surface of qualified job candidates. Our in-depth assessment of personal, interpersonal and cognitive style often reveals important underlying traits that can determine whether a candidate is well suited for a specific job.
Employee Assessment In this age of mergers and management turnover, a detailed assessment of present executives can be critical in properly aligning skills and style within an organization. We provide tangible evaluation tools that lead to logical employment decisions.
Career Transition Evaluation We provide guidance to executives and other professionals in transition to optimize career choices. Our evaluation of interests, abilities and personal needs helps ensure a smooth transition within or outside the company.
Executive Coaching We are frequently called upon to work with executives in critical performance areas such as leadership strategies, effective communication, mentoring skills and performance anxiety management. Executive coaching is often a useful follow-up to a career development assessment.
Organizational Consulting We apply our experience to help assess corporate structure - particularly during transition periods, management of discreet events and crisis situations. By understanding the individuals involved, we are able to help plan and facilitate long-term cultural/organizational change.
Retention Strategies We can help discover reasons for high attrition, internal conflict and other labor management issues - and help define methods of resolution.
Team Building,
Workshops, Conferences By taking the time to collaborate with our clients, we develop meaningful training programs and seminars. Topics can range from improving communication to career planning and development for audiences of all sizes.
Effective organizations are the direct result of effective individuals. Ongoing employee assessment and coaching can, therefore, significantly contribute to the fiscal and cultural welfare of a business.
