Consultancy
We offer a wide range of consultancy services that complement our extensive psychometric portfolio; below you can see just some of the consultancy services we offer. Typically, our clients come to us because of our experience and skills coupled with our impartiality. Whether you have the capability in house, there will always be times that bringing in outside help, particular for things like organisational restructure and feedback will be the best route.
We are proud of our flexibility and excellent feedback from our extensive list of existing clients. Why not contact us? To see if we can work together to help meet your objectives.
Adding the B.E.E.R. survey has been the icing on the cake for us and has given us the ability to better understand how our employees feel about our culture and to see how we compare with other regional employers. The B.E.E.R seminars are THE place to go for excellent tips and ideas to improve culture and engagement even further.
The results and awards reinforced the areas of engagement that Benefit felt it was already strong in. Employees' positive feedback told the company that certain elements of engagement had long been successful. Other feedback confirmed that the business was on the right track in terms of focusing on the areas that needed improvement.
Assessment & Development Centres
Scientific evidence shows these to be the most valid overall form of assessment for selection or development purposes. Combining several assessment exercises into a set (usually over one very full day), eras ltd tailors the combination of exercises concerned to your exact needs.
Bespoke Psychometric Design
Although we pride ourselves on our "off the shelf" tests and questionnaires, sometimes you'll want something just for your organisation – and no one else. We have designed special, personalised products for organisations ranging from major retailers to national charities to local authorities and even care homes.
Competency Design
Where to start? What are you actually looking for? With our experts on hand, we will help you make that decision to your full satisfaction. Years of work in this area, coupled with innovative techniques, help us to really focus in on a manageable but robust and crucial handful of competencies that define any given job.
Leadership Diagnostics & Assessment
There is no 'one size fits all' solution for effective leadership. This is where our comprehensive set of products and associated services can help. We'll enable you to identify the recipe for success and assess your current capability in a thorough and objective manner. The very best organisations need a combination of leadership styles, behaviours and competencies. We'll determine what is right for you and where potential strengths and development needs lie.
Organisational Restructure
No one said it would be easy – organisational restructuring fails more often than it succeeds. For this reason, organisations often resist change until it is too late. But don't panic. Yes, change can be frightening but let us help you do the best job possible and maximise what potential there exists in your organisation.
Outplacement Support
Our outplacement services provide a practical approach to help people back into a suitable role within the world of work. The right outplacement approach for an individual can reap huge benefits in terms of success in the job market.
Psychometric Feedback & Associated Development Consultancy
Let us do the work for you! This is particularly relevant where, for reasons of tact or politics, it is best to have an outsider, unconnected with your team or perhaps your whole organisation, providing this service. As a team of Chartered Psychologists working in the field for many years we have the experience and skills to maximise your objectives.
Staff Survey (Culture & Engagement) Feedback and Planning
Once again, a member of your organisation doing this might be felt to be 'too close to the subject matter' – it is frequently better to get an outsider's perspective. We can provide just that, making use of our cutting-edge flexible questionnaires written with this purpose in mind but wide open to additions and modifications by you.
Talent Development
With a diagnostic phase using state-of-the-art psychometric tools, we begin with development planning and identification of how best to utilise the learning resources available. We work in partnership with your organisation, identifying (and possibly developing) in-house resources where possible. Once the diagnostic stage has been completed, our clients are in a great position to understand fully the strengths and development needs of the participants. This is a crucial first step in any change and succession planning process.
Team Development
Even the best and most effectively-functioning of teams could be better. No team is perfect, even if it is already doing well. We can help teams get even better. The great thing is that making this happen is often a lot of fun – entertaining as well as educational. Let us show you how.
threesixty° Training
As the name suggests, views of an individual's strengths and limitations (with scope for further development) are invited from all sides – typically a manager, direct reports, colleagues and anyone else who might be able to give relevant input. Our
threesixty° instrument is cutting-edge in its customisability but good training is invaluable too.
Training Needs Analysis
Where is it best to allocate your valuable training resources? The question can be a vexing one, particularly if budgets are limited. Let us help you decide and gain the maximum in both your employees' own self-fulfilment and their usefulness in what they can do for you. We like to be judged by our results.
