What We Do
Psychological Associates partners with organizations to achieve targeted growth and collaboration through customized solutions designed to best fit your strategy goals. We provide a suite of Talent Assessment, Leadership Development, Succession Planning, and Family Business solutions to positively impact every facet of your organization.
How does your organization assess, transform, and organize talent? Not all candidates are created equal. Our proven methodologies combine empirical data with insight into observable human behavior, giving Psychological Associates a unique expertise in talent management.
Key Components of Assessment for Selection & Development
How is your organization developing its future talent into future decision makers? Psychological Associates provides leadership development and coaching for all levels of management – from first-level leaders through the C-Suite. We partner with your organization to facilitate customized training and ready-made solutions that can help you maximize leadership influence across your organization.
Key Components of Leadership Development
Identifying successors for senior positions is a critical undertaking for any business. You need a fair and objective process to select and develop the best leaders. At Psychological Associates, we use our proven suite of data-driven solutions to create robust and individually tailored Succession Planning processes. We've honed our approach for nearly six decades, refining it into a solution you can trust.
Key Components of Succession Planning
Discovery
We seek to become familiar with your organization. Our in-depth Discovery phase focuses specifically on your culture, competencies, and corporate structure, among other relevant details.
Gauging Your Organization’s Bench Strength
We combine specific tools, such as our Assessment for High-Potential and The Q4 Leader: Dimensional® 360°Feedback, to evaluate your bench strength and identify individuals poised to step into key leadership positions.
Implementing Executive Development
After assisting you with identification, we offer Executive Coaching and targeted training solutions as part of our comprehensive approach to talent development. We can help your executives increase their effectiveness by attending our acclaimed workshop, Leadership Through People Skills® (LTPS).
Measuring Results
Psychological Associates uses a follow-up structure to measure executive growth. Our Team Development solutions facilitate improved performance and The Q4 Leader: Dimensional® 360°Feedback reports provide follow-up data to track progress over time.
Running a successful business can sometimes be complicated by family dynamics. Our Family Business Methodology focuses on seven common family business challenges. Psychological Associates guides clients through a journey of evolving from a family business to a family in business, helping you balance shareholder interests with your unique family values. Our goal is to ensure the success of your business by giving you and your family members the tools and skills necessary to overcome challenges and arrive at sound decisions.
Key Components of Family Business
Governance Models
We believe in bringing the right people together for productive business discussions. Psychological Associates can help you create and develop effective leadership teams — including an Advisory Board, Family Council, and Compensation Committee — that bring family members together with impartial, outside experts to provide unique insight and facilitate responsible family business activity.
Performance Systems
Evaluating the performance of family members requires an objective review process. We start with a CEO Review, designed to create fair, robust, and actionable insight for optimal results. Then we use a variety of solutions, such as The Q4 Leader 360° surveys, Team Scorecard, and Executive Coaching, to support ongoing leadership development. These tools prepare the right successor for each key role in your organization.
Vision, Mission, Values
Psychological Associates can help your family business articulate its greater purpose. This provides a framework to support family harmony and focus strategic direction for ongoing success.
