-Recognized for Executive Assessment Program-
Pittsburgh, 10.31.14 – A Select International client, Sears Holdings Corporation (SHC), has been awarded the 2014 Human Resource Management (HRM) Impact Award for its executive assessment hiring process.
SHC partnered with Select International to develop and refine its Leadership Competency Model and created an Executive Assessment (EA) process to measure critical competencies.
“The SHC Executive Assessment has helped us leverage data to analytically model which leaders best fit critical roles as our organizational transformation evolves,” SHC Chief HR Officer Dean Carter said.
“The results are used by our senior leadership team and CEO to make key selection decisions. We are honored to accept this prestigious Award and thank SHRM, SIOP, and their respective Foundations for the recognition. I also thank all of those involved, including our internal team along with our consulting partners at Select international. Together, we were able to blend the finest aspects of innovative assessment science with SHC’s transformational business needs to craft the ideal leadership team for our future,” Carter added.
The HRM Impact Award program is a collaboration among the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM), the Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology (SIOP), the SHRM Foundation, and the SIOP Foundation. SIOP and SHRM share a deep commitment to promoting human resource management practices that contribute to the success of today’s global work organizations, making them better places in which to work.
