Our Expertise and Mission
Our expertise is helping select senior leaders who are the best fit for specific roles as well as identifying and developing the top future talent. Finding “the right match for the job” will have concrete and measurable benefits to the top and bottom line of your organization as well as an unquantifiable impact on your entire workplace. The same is true for leadership and work practices grounded in robust social and emotional intelligence. Our Selection Assessment and Consultative/Training Services can help you define and cultivate best practices for senior leadership selection and development as well as help you grow your best, strategically aligned culture.
Our mission is to support the sustained success of your business. Tim Weitzel & Associates will help you hire the best senior leadership for the job and accurately target and develop high-potential future executives from your current talent as well as talent acquired from outside your organization. Additionally, we support you in creating work environments where people thrive personally and professionally, where people give the best that they have and want to remain with your organization.
Executive Assessment Overview
At Tim Weitzel & Associates, we improve our clients’ ability to select the best executive candidates as well as to ensure that their executive teams achieve operational and strategic excellence. Leveraging a two-interview model in conjunction with powerful personality and cognitive assessments to create both a personal profile and an operational/strategic leadership profile, we move beyond the basics of job/experience matching and likeability interviewing, to assess a multifactor alignment between the candidate’s abilities and the organization’s key business drivers, mission, and culture. This provides our clients with an executive success and development profile that supports more precise hiring decisions for senior leadership positions.
Emotional & Social Intelligence Overview
A recent study reported in McKinsey Quarterly (September 2021) entitled, “’Great Attrition’ or ‘Great Attraction’? The choice is yours,” states that employees crave investment in the human aspects of work. Talented leaders and employees alike increasingly insist upon positive work environments characterized by psychological safety and respect for their personhood as well as healthy, supportive relationships. At Tim Weitzel & Associates we excel at helping our clients create leadership, work practices, and cultures characterized by strong emotional and social intelligence. In short, we strive to support our clients in embedding emotional and social intelligence as a core competency throughout their organization.
