I use Ability Map to de-risk hiring across my business. It empowers middle management to run a robust and bias-free process and massively de-risks their hiring decisions. I was previously having to get involved with every hire because my team made poor hiring decisions and essentially lacked a robust process and mechanism for defining what they needed, and then identifying that in potential candidates. AbilityMap ensures we are clear on the requirements for a new role - not just what experience we think we need, but actually what capabilities will make this new person successful in the role. Candidates are scored against those capabilities and then I allow the team to make a cultural assessment. We have reduced making poor hires by 80%.

I've been using Ability Map for my coaching clients when dealing with team and organizational issues. Unlike other "assessment tools", Ability Map is like the "verb" description of an individual's real capabilites. Others will describe personality traits and such, and while that can be helpful, rarely do these assessments effectively translate into how capable an individual actually is. I also use the tool to help coach individuals who are in leadership roles and may be aren't the most ideal fit. We leverage the stronger capabilities of the individual to offset and support their weaker ones. I like to describe the tool as helping my clients ensure all the right people are sitting in the right seats of the bus.

Right hires for the role. It identifies superior talent that leads to exceptional candidate performance.
