Our Tip Sheet
Stressful situations can help us identify the cracks beneath an organization’s surface.
Things may have been rolling along smoothly before — but if you’re hitting rough patches now, there’s a good chance they were already there. Take time to identify what those cracks might be.
Identify team member strengths to maximize their opportunities for success.
Pair big picture thinkers with detail oriented executors to create functional working teams.
Create a culture of empathetic metacognition to help different working styles to collaborate and avoid potential blindspots.
Cognitive diversity is a key element to high-performing organizations.
Be prepared to go back to the drawing board if something isn’t working.
Making performance prioritization an iterative process keeps teams ahead of the curve, particularly during complex and volatile times.
Encourage an open feedback culture among leaders and teams.
Frequent and constructive feedback keeps everyone aligned on organizational visions, goals and plans for getting there.
How We Can Help: Simulation Assessments
Assessing your team’s strengths and weaknesses can be a challenge in the best of times. In a distributed workforce, surrounded by a chaotic world, it can feel like a task better put off for an in-person regroup “when this is all over.” However, that may mean wasting the great opportunity of using technology to prepare your team for the post-COVID, remote world.
Simulation technology avoids the key pitfalls of other behavioral tools on the market. First, it is entirely data-driven and scientifically-validated by a significant body of peer-reviewed research. Second, it avoids the Barnum-Forer effect in which participants attribute credibility to descriptions that may fit any number of people through vague, positive and authoritative wording. Third, it avoids the forced binary questions of an MBTI/personality assessments. Meseekna’s proprietary simulation technology is the only way to quantitatively and rigorously assess an individual’s metacognitive abilities and decision-making competency in a novel, bias-free environment.
Every simulation assessment is accompanied by one-on-one coaching, feedback and a detailed, actionable report with training tips.
