PsyMax Solutions Podcast Reveal Truth Behind Assessment Misconceptions



There are many myths and misunderstandings about assessments (http://www.psymaxsolutions.com/assessment-truths/), and Thad Meese has heard them all. Meese, Chief Operating Officer of PsyMax Solutions, discusses these misconceptions in a new podcast available for download at http://www.psymaxsolutions.com/assessment-truths/.

The podcast supports PsyMax's recent white paper, Assessment Misconceptions: A Journey Out of Traditional Thinking Towards Better and Faster Talent Management Decisions (http://www.psymaxsolutions.com/assessment-truths/). Both forms of media pinpoint mistaken notions about assessments and explain the true benefits they bring to any organization.

Misconceptions include:

* Online assessments are not as effective as those administered by an I/O psychologist.

* Assessments are a luxury because they are expensive.

* Integrating assessments into a talent management system is too expensive-or just not possible.

"Companies that hold on to these incorrect assumptions run the risk of increased turnover, reduced productivity and limited engagement-in other words, business as usual," says Meese. "The cost of doing nothing is far greater than the cost of a well-designed and quickly implemented assessment program."

Meese qualifies this assertion with a study done by the finance and economics department of a leading university. The school worked with a major retailer and found that the PsyMax assessments for managers resulted in a multi-million dollar savings, just for that region.
