Career Development and Succession Planning with Facet5

People have different needs – roles offer different rewards. The closer the fit between a person’s needs and the rewards offered by the role, the more motivated the person will be. Satisfaction is greater and productivity increases. Employee turnover is reduced and morale is improved.

The Work Preferences report integrates your core motives (derived from Facet5 data) and identifies those aspects which you would want in a role and those which would be frustrating to you. By comparing responses to a database of known preferences, the report provides clear information about the specific job elements which are likely to appeal. The simple graphical layout makes it easy to understand and to implement. With Work Preferences you can:

Understand overall preferences
Evaluate current role
Design the “perfect” role

Management

As part of the report, Facet5 provides an outline of how the organisation might lead an individual to achieve their greatest potential

What our clients say…..

"I found Facet5 to be the most accurate descriptor of likely behaviour. The other thing that I like about it is the degree to which the output is accepted by candidates."
