Competency Assessment for Managers and Supervisors

Managerial Assessment of Proficiency (MAP)

MAP, the Managerial Assessment of Proficiency, is a competency-based, video-driven assessment for managers and supervisors. It was first researched and published by Dr. Scott Parry, a 1999 inductee into the HRD Hall of Fame, in 1986. After completing the MAP assessment, participants receive a results profile that measures their strengths and weaknesses in 12 critical management competencies and four style areas, normed against a database of more than 80,000 previous participants. Larry Brower, President of Saratoga Resource Group LLC, is one of the most experienced MAP facilitators in the country.

The twelve MAP competencies assessed are as follows:

Managing Your Job	Relating to Others	Building the Team	Thinking Clearly
Time Management	Listening and Organizing	Training, Coaching, and Delegating	Identifying and Solving Problems
Setting Goals and Standards Making	Giving Clear Information	Appraising People and Performance	Decisions and Weighing Risks
Planning and Scheduling Work	Getting Unbiased Information	Disciplining and Counseling	Thinking Clearly and Analytically

Benefits of MAP:

Objectively measures an individual's competency level in 12 key managerial competencies
Measures 10 styles and values that provide additional insight into proficiency scores on the 12 competencies
Provides each participant a results profile showing exactly where their individual strengths, and areas of needed improvement, as a manager are
Helps client organizations develop a needs-based training and development curriculum, so they can spend precious time and dollars only where needed
Provides a comprehensive five-step management development solution, including assessment, interpretation, planning, development, and re-assessment
Includes a process for developing (with coaching) an individual development plan for personal growth
Also available in a 360-degree format version called Perspectives
Together with EXCEL provides your organization a complete turn-key management development solution

After receiving their results, participants are provided assistance in learning to read, understand, and draw conclusions from their reports, and are provided coaching in writing an Individual Development Plan to address their areas of needed improvement. MAP is now available on-line as well as in the traditional classroom format. It can be facilitated by a client company trainer, after an initial installation program done by us, or can be delivered by us altogether.
