The Future of Character Assessments

The challenge for companies is to not only evaluate an individual's external strengths and accomplishments but to plumb their internal moral compass.

Recent trends in American business suggest that a growing number of organizations are ready for the next wave of assessment tools. Consider these trends:

• Over 30% of Fortune 500 companies are now using executive and personal coaches to help their teams deal with character development issues that have not been effectively addressed through traditional, internal training programs.
  
• Large consortiums of behavioral science firms are collaborating to put character assessment frameworks together as a scientific basis for supplementing the hiring process.
  
• Progressive Human Resources executives are making advances in the expansion of their existing behavioral assessment tools to embrace measurements of character.

We can expect an acceleration of these trends as more hard data are added to an already abundant supply of proof that character not only matters but that selected attributes of character are strong predictors of success in the workplace.
