Welcome to KEA Skills
We quantify critical, hard-to-measure leadership skills.
Growth focused organizations use KEA Assessments to identify and understand High-potential Employees.
Somewhere in your organization is someone you've underestimated. Find them.
Successful firms deploy teams with deep and nuanced skill sets to lead their most important strategic initiatives:
- Innovation - creating radical solutions or adopting new technologies
- Growth - launching new products and services or expanding into new markets
- Operational Efficiency - setting investment priorities and executing strategy
- Momentum - defending core businesses or managing succession
Field the best possible team and outperform your competition.
KEA Skills helps match the right talent to your organization's top priorities.
KEA Assessments
Test multiple knowledge domains in realistic, online business simulations:
1. Setting Strategic Priorities mirrors the reality of making strategic decisions with limited information under significant political pressure and time constraints.
2. Persuading The Board centers on persuading a divided group of powerful stakeholders to support an ambitious growth agenda.
3. Leading Through Crisis requires a skillful, timely response as one crisis can trigger more if not deftly addressed.
Challenge your people to make decisions under uncertainty and prove their essential leadership skills.
Let them show what they know with no risk to your business.
Filling leadership positions is not easy. Here's why.
Your people's experience and credentials don't reflect all they can do.
Four Common Delimmas
- High-potentials don’t always surface through normal channels.
- How High-potentials succeed is often misunderstood.
- High-potentials don’t always become High-performers.
- Opportunities to practice critical leadership skills are rare.
Evaluating past performance is insufficient. A systematic approach is needed to assess employee potential.
Promoting top talent is crucial to your success and getting it wrong creates unacceptable risks.
