Core to our talent management work is individual assessment. For the most senior people we advocate one to one assessment. This will usually comprise of an in-depth semi structured interview by a highly experienced occupational psychologist, a selection of psychometric and ability tests and colleague feedback.
We also design and deliver group assessment centres. Using work based simulations, we assess the capability and development needs of a group of employees or job candidates and prepare detailed reports to aid selection and succession decisions.
Edgecumbe assessments are prepared and presented using our own model of underlying capability. We call this the Primary Colours Model. This simple yet powerful model can be mapped to any competency model and provides structure and clarity to the process.

Psychometric scores are analysed and feedback is given using our own unique report that links personality traits to leadership and management tasks, identifying those where your personality helps and those where it might work against you. This analysis helps you to make sense of the data in a practical and meaningful way.
Informed by assessment processes, we create management development programmes to prepare your people to meet the challenges presented by organisational strategy, competition and market conditions. Our philosophy is to focus development effort and investment where it is most needed, where it is more likely to be effective and where it will therefore generate return on investment. All our training is bespoke to the client. They are delivered by highly qualified learning and development professionals and are designed from the best evidence to be practical and interactive.
Highly talented individuals are not always the easiest colleagues to work with. Edgecumbe have developed a reputation for working with high value / high cost individuals – people who are valuable to the organisation but are difficult or disruptive.
