What is Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment?

The PI Behavioral Assessment™ is a simple yet effective assessment that is broken down into four primary behavioral factors, or core drives.

According to the vendor, the results allow users to better predict workplace behaviors and motivating needs.

The PI Behavioral Assessment™ is a scientifically validated, free-choice, stimulus response assessment that was created through a normative sample of thousands of people. It has been investigated in nearly 500 criterion-related validity studies across almost all jobs and countries, built to the standards of the American Psychological Association (APA), Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychologists (SIOP), and the International Test Commission (ITC).

We use the Predictive Index and Predictive Learning indicator at Qlik in the hiring process and to help us be better managers of sales teams. For hiring it enables us to have an extra dimension to consider when going through the hiring process. We have a good idea of the types of profiles that are likely to be successful in particular roles, so we are able to make a much more informed decision. With existing team members we are able to coach and communicate more effectively through the understanding we get through PI!

I use PI to narrow down the candidate selection; help find the most ideal profile of a typical job, help write new job descriptions and our HRBPs use it for coaching new/young managers with their employees. I has many uses just on the behavior side and we are currently looking into the cognitive side for next year.

Our entire organization is using PI in many ways. We use it to improve communication among teams by providing managers with their teams' PI results and coaching tips, it helps bring self awareness to who we are and what motivates us to better align our strengths to our roles, and we use it in the hiring process to help us pair a job position with what natural needs/motivations a candidate may possess.

We use PI Behavioral Assessment throughout our entire organization. This tool has helped us tremendously. We use PI behavioral assessment within our hiring and recruiting team, with our learning and development team, and our coordinator to ensure that the whole company is using PI. We use this tool to hire and keep the right people. For example we use the assessment to ensure that the potential candidate can thrive in this role. Once we’ve hired, we give read backs of their results during their onboarding process. Next, we sit with the new employee and their manager and use the PI scorecards to teach how each person likes to be worked with. We also do readbacks where we go over the results of a team as a team building exercise so that they learn to work with each others similarities and differences. We have used the behavioral assessment and so many other tools through PI. It has been incredibly worth every penny.

We have implemented the PI Behavioral Assessment among all of our supervisory staff and our administrative support staff. We also include the senior leader of our Germany and France operations. We are hoping to understand each other and how to communicate better with each other. Eventually, we will include the entire organization and use it for team communication and recruitment.

The PI Behavioral Assessment is an integral part of our organization. Not only do we have every potential new employee take the assessment, we've also had all current employees complete it. The PI highlights each individual's strongest traits and characteristics, and helps us in HR to determine where they'd be happiest and most effective within the company! Love it!

We use PI across the global organization for all job types except blue collar workers in our warehouses. We use it in recruitment, in promotion/transfer discussions and as part of our leadership development program. At the time of introduction we had more than 60 managers certified in the tool, so that we could quickly get a common understanding and common language about the PI tool, and how to use it ethically and effectively.

Our company currently uses PI Behavioral Assessment within the Sales Department. During our validation period with a potential new franchise owner we have them complete the PI as well as the Cognitive Assessments to compare their behavioral traits to the baseline we have created in Job PRO. This allows us to see if our candidate has traits that would make a good franchisee. It also allows us to see where our potential and current franchisees may need support and coaching.

The use of this allows us to eliminate candidates that may not have the traits of a successful franchisee, as well as prevents the candidate from committing financially to a concept that they may not excel at. Having the right fit is as important for us as it is for the candidate looking for a concept.

We have been using PI as a whole organization, for all departments, and for 4 years now at my company. PI has helped us place ensure we are hiring the right people for a job, and we've had a lot of proven success with this. It's also great to understand employees' motivating needs, to ensure they are happy in the workplace which will then increase productivity.

PI has recently implemented new software which has streamlined some things, and I do know they are working on another new site as well, so they are "keeping up with the times" and continuously improving.

PI Behavioral Assessments are the best tool we have in terms of:
- Identifying and top-grading candidates for positions across the business
- Team building, to leverage individuals' greatest strengths
- Personal development planning for team members

We have been using PI for over seven years, and it saves us time, reduces ineffective hiring, and maximizes the effectiveness of the organization.

When my organization first adopted the use of PI Behavioral Assessment, it was for the main purpose of providing a new data set to analyze during the recruitment process. However, it quickly became apparent that there were many other uses for the PI. Within the first year, we built a Team Building & Conflict Resolution Training that used the PI as an informative, fact-based awareness tool to help our teams better understand each other and themselves. We completed PI read backs for all our current staff and recently we have begun conducting PI read backs with each new hire during their orientation on day one. We also review their manager's PI and those of their team members so they have a better understanding of the driving needs and behaviors they can expect from day one.

We use the PI for a variety of situations. We use it as a part of our recruiting for hard-to-find niche positions, as development for teams and coaching for individuals. We use it for all parts of our company. We have had success with the insight it provides for individuals, and the vast majority of people receiving the feedback from the assessments feel it's spot-on. They love that the assessment takes less than 10 minutes, so it's an easy sell for a reluctant, busy employee. The only downfall I would say about the assessment is the standard reporting can feel a bit "canned". I've had some users say the report was 100% accurate to them and some claim 85%. Those saying 85% feel the PI was entirely accurate when I debrief them specifically on the graphs provided.

PI is used for interpersonal awareness, team dynamics, job fit, leadership development, conflict resolution and team building. We primarily use it for our corporate, management and guest service populations. PI ensures that we are placing the right people in the right positions. It also has created a common language so conflict resolution happens in a quicker and more comfortable manner. We have targeted development conversations using PI that have proven to develop our managers faster and more effectively.

PI Behavioral Assessment is used as an essential tool for hiring and maintaining work culture. It's been used for the last five years, so implementing it across the whole organization, from our CEO to the Recruiter, is easy. It addresses the common issue of hiring someone whose strengths aren't a match for the job.

In our company we use the Predictive Index in our hiring process to ensure a good job fit. We also use it in enhancing team dynamics and productivity. Most recently, it is becoming an initial focal point in our succession planning process. Not only will the PRO help us define those behaviors and skillsets needed most in a position, but it will give us another tool for evaluating potential successors and in creating the development opportunities needed for those successors to be ready when we have change in our organization.
