Assessments
Confidence in the Next Step
Confidential • Fast • Flexible • Accurate
CEO Perspective Group Assessments are unique, valid and tailored to fit your needs. Using advanced forms of testing and interviewing, comprehensive information is collected, individually analyzed and provided to best meet current and future goals. When it’s your firm, your board or you, you need to be sure. That’s why leading firms and people consistently call us--confident the next step is correct. And the step after.
Boards, companies, investors, and executives praise the CEO Assessment for depth and accuracy of insights. Especially prized is the ability to assess intangible factors, such as judgment, potential, stressors and integrity. And the variables impacting traits-allowing a person or board to move forward.​
A year of research created this unique multipurpose Assessment, which is continually refined to better meet needs of clients. Thus clients in distant locales can now obtain valuable insights without travel to New York. And investors are able to learn about several traits without a full evaluation. Decades of experience and technical expertise enable Dr. Soder to combine evaluation and coaching in innovative ways and maintain same rigorous standards. ​People often stay in contact for years, helping us and others to play it forward.
Soder's extensive education and psychometric skills enable valid evaluations of both current and potential abilities. Sophisticated interviewing methods and graphic measures provide rich information—helping with “what if” scenarios and potential risks, preclude faking, enrich the experience and much more.
Our Assessments are truly special
Clients are from near & far corners of the world, refer partners, investors and spouses. Decades later, clients still base key decisions and actions on guidance received in assessments. Individuals seek our guidance on minor and major matters. People seek advice on new ventures and challenges after retirement. Highly regarded leaders and role models often credit Soder—“my rapid ascent started with her assessment.” We have helped leaders at all stages, all industries, and ages.
Top consultants, bankers, and lawyers often use the CEO Assessment to gain a competitive edge. New and aspiring chief executives applaud it as "accurate, enlightening and immensely helpful" and "timeless." Boards and private equity firms utilize the CEO Assessment to evaluate potential candidates, privately help with issues and to determine if a current CEO should continue in the position. Our research on the “early warning signs” is recognized as ground-breaking and hailed by leading governance groups. Our size ensures utmost discretion.
