Findings from Talent Management specialist, Recrion, show that Measuring Motivation is the Missing Piece of the Talent Management Puzzle.
The questions frequently asked - Will they fit in? Are they with you for the long-term? Are they motivated to do the job? are about getting – and keeping – the right people for your organisation.
The answers to these questions are to understand a candidate or employee’s motivation and attitude to work – and not just their skills-set.
Research from the Institute of Work and Motivation (iWAM) suggests that a person's motivation and attitude accounts for at least 40% of their overall working performance.
And yet, measuring motivation is something that is often largely ignored, with most psychological tests on the market not built to measure attitude. Instead, these tools measure personality; not a good indicator of working performance.
This FREE Talent Management Report explains how you can fully understand an individual’s motivation before you hire them, how to have a robust succession strategy and how to retain your top performers.
