Assessment Practices for the 21st Century
Dr. John C. Scott
Chief Operating Officer
APTMetrics
"Sophisticated assessment programs that weren't possible even a few years ago can now be assembled and launched on a global scale to allow organizations to measure almost any attribute in any language with greater realism, efficiency, and precision than ever before. This transformation in assessment practices has been largely precipitated by the explosive growth and stability of the Internet. While these technological advances have resulted in significant progress in assessment theory and practice, they have also led to a commercialization of assessment tools at the expense of good science. As the next generation of these technology-driven applications comes of age, assessment and HR professionals must ensure that rapid technological innovation is properly balanced with measurement standards and ethical practices that keep pace with the complexities associated with global use."
Dr. Scott is available to discuss leadership assessment, assessing high-potential employees, leadership assessment for the 21st century. He is available for in-person interviews in the New York tristate area. He is media-savvy and able to speak about highly complex concepts regarding the art and science of industrial and organizational psychology in a way that is easily understood by those who are unfamiliar with the field.
