As CEO of EcoAnalysts, Inc., I hired Jeannie to facilitate CORE with our entire Management Team. Each person took the online assessment then Jeannie came to our company headquarters to give a presentation on CORE and perform individual facilitations with our staff in person. There was significant apprehension among the staff at first, mainly due to fears that it would be used to pigeonhole people for future opportunities within the firm. Their interactions with Jeannie were all positive, however, and fears have subsided. Our management team has a better understanding of each other’s personality traits and this is helping our teambuilding efforts. Furthermore, we are offering CORE as a way of charting a path for personal and professional development.
EcoAnalysts is now having candidates for full time employment take the test and we are including the results in our screening process.
In summary, my experience with CORE and with Jeannie Anderson has been nothing but positive, it has been very enlightening, and I am learning and growing as a person. I am most grateful to Jeannie for what she has brought to the EcoAnalysts team.
Very truly yours,
Gary T. Lester, CEO - EcoAnalysts, Inc. |

Significantly Improve Hiring and Promotion Decisions
In today's highly competitive environment, corporations need exceptionally reliable tools for making hiring and promotion decisions. Many organizations rely on assessments to help in the selection process, but the usual assessments that simply define behavioral styles, general traits or functional preferences cannot provide the depth of information necessary for truly informed decisions.
If you have ever had the experience of hiring or promoting someone, based on the results of an assessment, only to have the candidate miserably fail to meet expectations, you are already aware of the limitations of the average assessment.
An organization’s most valuable resource is its people…. so the more self aware and focused that the employees are, the more they are able provide to the company, within their teams and individually. CORE allows an individual to discover and utilize their own strengths, diminish their weaknesses, recognize and appreciate the uniqueness of those on their teams and in leadership roles, enables them to learn effective communication and relationship skills, and gain valuable insights to achieving their highest potential and performance levels.
Additionally, those in leadership positions will be able to gain valuable knowledge and insight into those that they are leading such as what truly motivates them and what doesn’t, what management style will have the most positive effect and how to communicate with their employees thus allowing them to create working relationships with them, and place them in positions that will enable them to maximize their potential. |
Yet it is terribly important that one know, both about oneself and about others, whether the net effect of one’s influence on others enriches, is neutral, or diminishes and depletes.

Improve Employee Training Outcomes and Save Money Too
 |
As with hiring and placement decisions, training today needs to be more focused and relevant. Sending entire departments to general training, costs organizations millions of dollars in lost man hours and wasted training dollars and often produce disappointing results. By knowing exactly where training is indicated and how to structure it for optimal results, training costs can be minimized and training results maximized. CORE MAP measures and reports on areas of development so that specific training needs can be pinpointed and addressed. |
CORE assessments and training can help your company:
-
Accurately predict job effectiveness and fit to eliminate any unpleasant (and expensive) surprises and create well defined benchmarks to ensure you are hiring only the best suited for the job
-
Define requirements for long-term job satisfaction and reduced turnover
-
Target the training needs of each employee, thereby improving training outcomes while eliminating unnecessary training time and expenditures.
-
Build strong, effective teams by understanding the communication, interpersonal, and team styles of each employee
-
Improve employee relations by helping employees understand differences and appreciate diversity
-
Keep employees motivated and improve morale
-
Improve management and leadership outcomes individually and within teams and reveal management styles to ensure the leadership in every department is optimal
-
Increase management's ability to communicate, persuade and inspire
-
Build better customer relations and increase sales through accurate hiring and targeted training
-
Prevent or more easily resolve conflict
-
Effectively manage change
-
Increase productivity

To build and sustain
a great institution,
one must be able
to identify these
talented men and women and see that they
are always in places
where their influence
is needed.

Workplace Competencies
There are a number of factors that contribute to competency in the workplace. The most obvious is training, but effective training goes far beyond job skills training, and all forms of training only account for approximately 35% of employee successes. The majority of competencies sought by companies nationwide actually fall outside the job skills arena. More than 80% of commonly sought competencies fall under the categories of emotional intelligence (EQ), interpersonal skills and personal traits.
Numerous research studies point to the fact that no amount of job skills training will produce a competent worker if the worker is not suited to the job by natural temperament and/or is not emotionally mature enough to handle the demands of the job. One study done by Dr. Judith Bardwick, a professor at the University of California at San Diego, concluded that a person's character (maturity level plus values) and personality influence his/her behavior and success on the job more than knowledge and training combined.
Competency in performing job skills is easy to measure and predict based on test results and past work records, but the competencies in the crucial 80% are not so easy to determine by ordinary means. While there are a number of assessments on the market today designed to measure temperament, attitudes or interests most have no means of checking to determine whether the reported traits and interests are actually present. Many assessments are easily skewed, which allows an applicant to appear to fit job requirements when they really don't, and many more are skewed unintentionally simply because the applicant is not self-aware enough to report accurately. Also, most assessments don't measure and predict EQ or personal development levels, which are huge determinants for effectiveness and competence. |
 |
There is only one assessment tool that is virtually impossible to skew without detection, accurately measures EQ, personal development and reactionary patterns, and which has the ability to determine whether what an individual is reporting is true and accurate. That tool is the CORE Multidimensional Awareness Profile. CORE MAP is a development and potentials assessment that is designed to measure an individual's or group's current development and accurately describe their future potential under varying circumstances and conditions.
CORE is virtually impossible to skew under normal conditions – Single dimensional profiles are easily skewed when an applicant knows what qualities a company is seeking for a position. With CORE MAP, attempts to skew the results to fit job requirements are immediately revealed.
