Erin Stern, BCBA, Founder and President of STEPS Behavioral Health, shares how her clinic takes an integrative approach by combining ABA, Speech, OT, and PT to support early learners. With a strong focus on flexibility and tailoring every goal to the individual, Erin highlights the importance of thoughtful intake and assessment, working closely with families, preparing children for school, and weaving in everyday experiences and milestones.Erin discusses the clinic's Early Steps Program, which supports newly diagnosed learners through Kindergarten and beyond. With no “hard lines,” the focus is always on finding the right placement, environment, and balance of clinic- and home-based services. Erin explains how determining intervention hours involves multiple factors—age, behaviors, skill needs, family dynamics, and insurance—while maintaining flexibility to meet each learner's individual needs.Our conversation also highlights the value of providers immersing themselves in a learner's AAC system, staying committed to professional growth, and never forgetting the power of play. As Erin reminds us, “Don't forget to play,” because natural learning and connection thrive in those moments.#autism #speechtherapy What's Inside:STEPS Behavioral Health and the Early Steps Program.Tailoring early intervention to individual learner needs.Important factors to consider when determining intervention hours.Why play is one of the most important factors of a learner's success.Mentioned In This Episode:Stepsbh.comJoin the aba speech connection  ABA Speech: Home

DISC assessments are powerful tools for understanding human behavior—but only when they're used correctly. Too often, I see people misuse DISC by labeling others, stereotyping roles, or treating it as a final verdict instead of a helpful indicator. In this episode of Remarkable TV, I'll share: ✅ Why DISC is a model of behavior, not a definition of people ✅ How DISC shows natural tendencies—not skills or limitations ✅ The danger of labeling people by “just a few letters” ✅ How you can use DISC assessments responsibly and effectively I believe in the power of DISC—my team and I even offer our own DISC assessment tools. But like any tool, they can do more harm than good if they're misapplied.

In this episode of The Tech Leader's Playbook, Avetis Antaplyan sits down with Dr. Reece Akhtar, CEO and founder of Deeper Signals — a leading organizational psychologist and data scientist helping companies unlock human potential through AI-powered talent insights. Together, they explore how the future of leadership is being shaped by behavioral science, soft skills, and the rise of AI in the workplace.Dr. Akhtar breaks down what defines high-caliber leaders today, emphasizing the evergreen traits of cognitive aptitude, emotional intelligence, curiosity, and execution. He shares powerful stories about helping a scaling company move from 200 to 1,000 employees while improving performance by 15–20% year-over-year by using data-driven assessments.Listeners will gain a practical blueprint for building talent-centric organizations, minimizing bias in hiring, and turning assessments into tools for onboarding, coaching, and long-term leadership development. This episode is packed with actionable advice for executives and founders who want to future-proof their organizations, hire and grow the right leaders, and create high-performing, cohesive teams in an AI-driven world.TakeawaysHigh-performing leaders share four traits: cognitive aptitude, emotional intelligence, curiosity, and the ability to execute.AI will amplify the need for collaboration, critical thinking, and creativity—not replace them.Psychometrics offer a data-driven way to reveal leadership potential beyond intuition.Assessments shouldn't just filter candidates; they should inform onboarding and ongoing coaching.Structured interviews combined with assessments dramatically improve hiring accuracy.Data can act as a guardrail against unconscious bias in leadership selection.Building a talent-centric organization requires aligning culture, leadership development, and performance metrics.Cognitive diversity within teams often outperforms a single "A-player" approach.Over-indexing on charismatic leaders can be dangerous—look for competence, not charm.The five-factor model (OCEAN) is the most scientifically valid framework for personality assessments.Leaders should pause before reacting—self-awareness and emotional regulation are key."Just pause and listen" is Akhtar's billboard advice for young leaders.Chapters00:00 Introduction: Why leadership needs data in the AI era01:35 What defines high-potential leaders today03:50 Evergreen traits: intelligence, EQ, curiosity, execution06:25 How psychometrics and AI reveal hidden potential09:05 Case study: Scaling from 200 to 1,000 employees with data-driven hiring13:10 Turning assessment data into onboarding and coaching tools17:00 The five-factor model (OCEAN) and its predictive power19:00 Limitations of assessments and human adaptability22:30 Combining interviews, references, and data for better hiring decisions27:50 Why resumes and unstructured interviews fall short29:50 Lessons from Dune: Avoiding the charismatic leader trap32:40 Using data to identify and mitigate bias in hiring36:15 Building a talent-centric organization and embedding values44:30 The importance of team fit and cognitive diversity47:15 Personal lessons: pausing before reacting as a leader48:30 Recommended reading: Social Physics by Sandy Pentland49:55 Closing advice: "Pause and listen" for young leaders51:00 Episode wrap-up and where to connect with Dr. AkhtarDr. Reece Akhtar's Social Media Links:https://www.linkedin.com/in/reeceakhtar/Dr. Reece Akhtar's Website:https://www.deepersignals.com/Resources and Links:https://www.hireclout.comhttps://www.podcast.hireclout.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/hirefasthireright

Other safeguards require the participation of both MSP and the client. Lastly, some safeguards require the client to lead. Jim Harryman of Kinetic Technology Group shares their approach to get the desired outcome.

Assessments are more than forms to complete or boxes to tick. They are the foundation for building programs that truly matter to our learners. In this conversation, we unpack how to move beyond surface-level evaluations and use assessments as powerful tools for understanding strengths, identifying gaps, and setting meaningful goals.Too often, assessments get mistaken for curriculum, leading to cookie-cutter programs that don't reflect the individual needs of the learner. We discuss how to avoid this trap by reframing assessments as a starting point, not the destination. You'll hear strategies for finding the right balance between thoroughness and efficiency, so learners don't lose months of programming while assessments drag on.We also talk about the importance of clinical judgment: why assessments belong in the hands of BCBAs and how to use results to shape goals that connect directly to the learner's real-world needs. If you've ever felt bogged down by assessment requirements or questioned how to make them more meaningful, this episode will help you approach them with clarity and confidence.What's Inside:Why assessments should guide programming, not become the programHow to balance thoroughness with timely implementationTips for choosing meaningful, functional goals that go beyond checklistsMentioned In This Episode:Measuring What Matters: Meaningful Outcomes with the MOTAS Assessment CEU EventHowToABA.com/joinHow to ABA on YouTubeFind us on FacebookFollow us on Instagram

Assessments are essential in ABA, but are we always using them the right way? Too often, assessments become a box-checking exercise rather than a true guide to meaningful intervention. In this conversation, we revisit the foundations of ABA assessments and explore how to move beyond simply filling in grids and scoring sheets.We look at some of the most widely used tools, including the ABLLS, VB-MAPP, and Early Start Denver Model, and share how to choose the right one for your learner. You'll learn why assessments are not the same as curriculum, and how mistaking one for the other can lead to cookie-cutter programs that miss individual needs. Instead, we highlight how assessments should serve as a starting point, giving you a baseline to individualize treatment goals and track progress over time.You'll also hear updates on newer tools like the MOTAS (Meaningful Outcomes Treatment and Assessment Scale) and the IGL (Inventory of Good Learner Repertoires), which can help bridge the gap between assessment data and real-world functional progress.If you've ever wondered how to make assessments feel less overwhelming and more impactful, this episode will give you practical strategies and a fresh perspective.What's Inside:Why assessments are not curriculumChoosing the right tool for the right learnerUpdates on MOTAS and IGL for functional outcomesTips for making assessments efficient and individualizedMentioned In This Episode:Check out our blog on assessmentsMeasuring What Matters: Meaningful Outcomes with the MOTAS Assessment CEU EventHowToABA.com/joinHow to ABA on YouTubeFind us on FacebookFollow us on Instagram 

Assessments have always played a crucial role in how we identify potential, develop talent, and shape future leaders. But with the rapid rise of AI and digital tools, we're facing both incredible opportunities and real risks. In this episode we're diving into a subject that sits right at the intersection of innovation and humanity and asking, how do we harness the power of technology - particularly AI - to build fairer, more human-centered approaches to leadership assessment and development? Joining Lucy to discuss this is a real expert in the field of leadership assessment - Tom Verboven from The Talent Enterprise which is part of the Mercer group. Lucy and Tom discuss some of the big questions around assessment and technology, including:  Where do we currently stand in the adoption and effectiveness of AI and technology in assessments?  How can we effectively eliminate bias and noise in assessments, whether human or AI-driven? What is the candidate or participant experience like when interacting with AI and technological assessments? What are the implications of passively collecting data to generate insights on strengths, areas for development?   Chapters (00:03) Harnessing AI for Leadership Assessment (05:52) Navigating AI in Leadership Development (15:45) Ethical Considerations in AI Assessments (28:21) The Future of AI in Leadership Contact Tom: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tom-verboven-b85a691/ Disruptive HR Website: www.disruptivehr.com Join the Disruptive HR Club https://disruptivehr.com/welcome-to-the-future-of-hr/ Email: hello@disruptivehr.com

Show Notes: Sandor Marton, a McKinsey alum and co-founder of Chronos Insights introduces the AI research companion tool and explains its features. Sandor shares his background in growth strategy, commercial strategy, and due diligence work. He identifies the problems faced by small firms and independent practitioners who don't have large teams in place to assign people to do the massive amount of necessary foundational research, which limits the size of projects they can take on. An Overview of Chronos Insights Sandor discusses partnering with Matt Jones and Dustin Chrysler to develop an AI-powered solution for market and competitive landscape research. He talks about the background of the team and the issues they initially tackled. The team aimed to create a specialized prompt leveraging ChatGPT's large language model while moving away from ChatGPT's programming “to make people happy” and to deliver more accurate results. They developed their tool, Chronos, with a different approach. The tool uses neural search and keyword search to provide more accurate and sourced research solutions. Sandor talks about how they tested the agents. He found it saved 75% of research time using the platform and emphasizes the need for review and revision of AI-generated outputs. Chronos Research Capabilities The conversation turns to access to proprietary databases, and Sandor explains the current use of the alpha version sources publicly available information. He also talks about their engineering resources and can build a version that taps into proprietary, private, or licensed resources, and that the user can direct the agent to source from specific sources. Sandor refers to a large Fortune 100 company that has hired them to build an agent to work with their internal research team. Sandor discusses potential future features like an interview finder tool and a composite self-referencing insights feature. The discussion touches on the flexibility of the tool in handling different types of research problems. User Interface Explained Sandor explains the simple UI of the tool, which includes five landing pages: Project Overview, Research Statement of Work, Research Plan, Research Tab, and Research Summary. The tool creates a research plan based on the user's research statement of work, breaking it down into discrete task prompts. Sandor demonstrates how to use the tool by copying and pasting a Word document into the Research Statement of Work tab. The tool generates a detailed research plan, including market landscape, competitor landscape, and key trends and developments. Project Overview Research Plan Generation Sandor explains the process of generating a research plan, including organizing research tasks by major research categories and subsections. He shares an example of the various categories to be researched within the statement of work. The tool creates task prompts for each topic within the research statement of work. Users can edit tasks and change the language model used for research. Sandor highlights the efficiency of running multiple tasks concurrently using the platform and demonstrates how it works and the various categories of research that can be explored, analyzed, and summarized. How Chronos Summarizes Prompts Sections Identified and Tasks to Complete Subsections Explained Reviewing and Exporting Sandor demonstrates how to review and export the research outputs generated by the tool. The tool provides citations for each task, allowing users to verify the sources. Users can rerun tasks and edit them as needed. The tool offers a research summary feature, which condenses the research outputs into a concise format. Research Task Overview     Market Landscape Research Use Cases and Future Developments Sandor talks about use cases and future developments. He explains that it can handle various research topics and how they have programmed the agent to eliminate errors. Sandor mentions a project which included researching sales cycles and client selection criteria. The tool has potential for developing primary research, valuation and diligence work, and incorporating proprietary or licensed material.
