The leaders of your business can affect its health and vibrancy. They also can have a tremendous impact on the people within their span of care in the business. So, when it's time to bring someone new into your organization, how do you know when you're hiring the right person? You can't always rely on your gut or a couple of meetings. If you make the wrong decision it can be devastating to the business and the people within. When Chapman & Co. Leadership Institute works with an organization to identify leaders, they use a number of proprietary pre-hire assessments and tools to help make those determinations. But it's not a bunch of impersonal, rigid tests. They take a truly human approach to pre-hire testing, to make the best decision for everyone involved. On this podcast, we're going to explore how to keep the humanity in pre-hire assessments with the experts at Chapman & Co. First, you'll hear a mini-case study as Chapman & Co.'s managing partner, Sara Hannah interviews a customer, Carol O'Neill of BW Packaging. You'll hear how Carol and her team have used pre-hire testing and the difference it has made in that business. Then you'll get a deeper dive into how Chapman & Co approaches pre-hire testing as Matt Whiat interviews Chapman & Co partner Melinda Bremley, including discussion on the role of AI in the assessment world.

Times of transition can be challenging for any organization. But challenging times and times of change often presents many opportunities for growth.  But the ability to maximize those opportunities depends on effective leadership. Chapman & Co. Leadership Institute is Barry-Wehmiller's consulting arm that specializes in helping other organizations unleash the extraordinary in their businesses and their people. A few years ago, Chapman & Co. acquired Leadership Alliance – a data-driven talent acquisition and development business equipped with a team of consultants, many of whom have their Ph.D. in psychology. The Leadership Alliance brand is now officially combining under the Chapman & Co. Leadership Institute name, which has inspired a number of emotions around the transition, especially from Leadership Alliance's founders. On this podcast, Chapman & Co.'s Matt Whiat talks to David and Karen Weller, Leadership Alliance founders and current partners in Chapman & Co. We're going to explore this transition in the hope that it can help other organizations in their own change journeys. We explore some of the things to keep in mind to make transitions as smooth as possible for the people inside the business.

Leadership Institute.

One can learn a great deal about leadership by enlisting in the Air Force at age 18 as a Basic Airman and climbing to a high-ranking officer working with NATO partners, the Joint Staff at the Pentagon and becoming boot camp squadron commander. However, most of us will never follow that path. The good news is that has been Matt Whiat's path. After leaving the military, he became co-founder of Chapman & Co., an organization dedicated to helping organizations create cultures where people feel valued. His open, friendly, caring, and passionate approach to leadership is contagious and effective!

To get trust, you have to freely give it. This is a tough concept for many people. It’s the opposite of what we normally think. We think of trust as something to be earned. We’ll trust someone when they give us proof that they can be trusted. But being a leader often means going against conventional thought and reaching out to give when others would grab. Trust is going to be essential during the exceptional circumstance the world finds itself in right now. Leaders will have to trust their people and vice versa.

Leadership Institute (formerly BW Leadership Institute) had a discussion on the true meaning of trust with Leadership Freak, Dan Rockwell.
