PAPI
PAPI (Personality and Preference
Inventory) is a simple yet scientifically proven personality
assessment that helps companies to assess the behaviour and
preferred work styles of both prospective candidates and
existing employees.
Containing leading edge job profiling facilities and a range of
features to generate candidate-specific reports and interview
guides, PAPI is an ideal tool for both recruitment and personal
development settings. It provides vital insights to support the
information on which a selection decision is made.
Originally developed by Dr Max Kostick in the early 1960s, PAPI
is now used by more than 1000 organisations across the globe. It
is a highly flexible tool that is available in over 25 different
languages and supplied to clients in online, CD-Rom installable
and traditional paper formats.
How Does PAPI Work?
PAPI explores a broad range of personality
dimensions. These dimensions are split between Role and Need
scales. The Role scales measure the individual's perception of
themself in the work environment and look at areas such as
leadership, work style and planning.
The Need scales in PAPI probe the deeper inherent tendencies of
an individual's behaviour such as the need to belong to groups,
the need to be noticed and the need to be supportive.
The Development
of PAPI
PAPI has been used across the globe for over 30 years and is
currently used by over 5000 professionals worldwide. The PAPI
questionnaire is available in over 25 different languages and as
such, allows multi-national employers to develop a common
assessment language and apply consistent assessment standards
wherever they do business.
Training can be offered anywhere in the world and companies can
be supported either locally or centrally depending on their
requirements.
Critically, extensive trials have taken place to cater for local
differences in culture and business practice. Consequently,
users can be safe in the knowledge that PAPI will deliver
accurate and reliable results, wherever it is used.
