Our practice areas / Survey & Assessment
Understand your organisation
The Survey and Assessment Practice at Milward & Partners specialises in customised survey and assessment solutions for organisations. Our goal is to help you to understand your organisation and the people you employ. Our team of experienced researchers, statisticians and analysts will design and conduct organisational surveys and assessments to measure any organisational or individual behavioural issue that is of concern to you. We can help you to design surveys and assessments to inform the design of a change process or as a periodic audit to ensure that a change process is on track.
Our survey and assessment solutions are focussed
into 3 areas:
- Organisational research – understanding group motivation, employee attitudes, opinions, culture and climate
- Interpersonal, management & leadership skills assessment
- Evaluation research – projecting and assessing the impact of change, both general and specific
Understanding motivation, attitudes, beliefs and behaviour
Our Survey and Assessment Practice will help you to develop and administer fully customised survey solutions to gain a clear understanding of the likely impact of change initiatives, an indication of how your people think, behave and relate to each other, and other behavioural factors that influence the performance of your organisation.
We will provide you with comprehensive easily understood reports, illustrated with clear graphics. This will enable you to both plan for, and keep track of progress on organisational change projects. This way you can minimise the undesirable impact of change on your people and maximise the chances of success with your project.
Assessing interpersonal and leadership skills
As your people progress to more senior positions with supervisory and management responsibility, it is increasingly important that they relate well to their colleagues and display effective leadership behaviours.
Our Survey and Assessment Practice will help you to assess the interpersonal and leadership skills of potential managers and of those currently in supervisory, management or senior executive roles.
We use a combination of our own and other well-validated and robust assessment instruments for the 360 degree evaluation of individuals. We will provide you with clear, easily understood reports that provide a basis for individual behavioural change when used diagnostically to inform a programme of executive coaching.
