EBW Selection for Potential

Many companies focus their assessent criteria on hard skills when recruiting (e.g. technical expertise, industry knowledge, education). However the key critical success factor of Emotional Intelligence traditionally has not been directly measured.

Forward-looking consultants and organisations worldwide are now assessing Emotional Intelligence using the EBW System to select better leaders and more productive teams.

"The EBW has enhanced our recruitment process by allowing us to identify candidate strengths and weaknesses against our key competency areas. Candidate reports are generated prior to the interview stage, enabling our recruiters to raise unique questions for each candidate rather than "one size fits all". 
Matt Bennett (Graduate Recruitment Manager - hy-phen Workforce Management Solutions)

Why is assessing Emotional Intelligence important in selection?
An employee with high Emotional Intelligence can manage his or her own impulses, communicate with others effectively, manage change well, solve problems, and use humour to build rapport in tense situations. These employees will have empathy, remain optimistic even in the face of adversity, and are gifted at educating and persuading in a sales situation and resolving customer complaints in a customer service role.

Research shows that this “clarity” in thinking and “composure” in stressful and chaotic situations is what separates top performers from weak performers in the workplace.

Assessing and understanding a person's Emotional Intelligence using the EBW System, recruiters and managers can predict successful candidates by:

• Benchmarking candidates against their peers
• Evaluating their motivation to succeed and their resilience to pressure
• Assessing their leadership ability, their way of relating to others and making decisions
• Examining their adaptability and team-working style
• Understanding how they manage the critical emotions and behaviours that predict success (Emotional Intelligence)
