We assess and improve judgement. The days of hiring and promoting on interviews and instincts alone are over. Or at least they should be over. Research clearly shows how good humans are at fooling themselves. Making important decisions about people—hiring, promoting, developing—without data just doesn’t make sense anymore. Granted there are people whose gut instincts are very good, but in a critical decision about a human why wouldn’t you want to cover every base possible? Personality assessments such as DISC and its variants can help in understanding someone’s behavior, but they only go so far. We believe whether you are an introvert or extrovert, whether you are a genius or of average intelligence, what matters is how effectively you apply good judgment in the use of your particular attributes. In fact, good judgment effectively applied, especially at moments of pressure, will separate the good from the great over the long haul. We use the Judgment Index, a tool based on the Hartman Value Profile developed by Nobel Prize nominee Dr. Robert S. Hartman, over 50 years ago. The Judgment Index allows us to measure over 40 factors that make up one’s judgment. Your judgment scores are based on your data, not our opinion. We believe Judgment Index is the least known, and most powerful, of all the assessment tools out there. We combine 40 years of business experience with assessments to help you see what you can't see on your own. The simple self awareness that comes from that process is the main first step in improving performance, both in your job and in your life. In the end it comes down to making good judgments. Good judgments on the job, good judgments about the people you hire or associate with, and good judgments in the many decisions of life that occur every day. Judgment can be coached up, but it starts with data, objectivity, and awareness.
