FAQs about Executive & Board Performance Assessment
Yes, agp has a number of partners who offer bespoke, up-to-date assessments, according to the needs of the business.
- Occupational Personality Questionnaire
- Motivational Questionnaire
- Myers Briggs Type Indicator
- Hogan Development Survey
- Saville’s Wave
- Cognitive Process Profile Assessment
- Firo-B
- Thomas Kilman Conflict Instrument

We also suggest using timed tests to uncover the level of the subject’s verbal, numerical and abstract reasoning skills.
These assessments use a variety of tools to give a very clear picture of how an individual works under pressure, what their key drivers are, how they deliver impact in the workplace and, most importantly, how strategic versus operational they are.
This combination will give an indication of their level of potential to be both a good fit for the business now and also their ability to develop as the business needs them to.
