In this session, we’ll peel back the curtain on what the research really says about personality testing in the workplace. You’ll discover:
Are personality assessments rooted in science, psychology, or just made up?
Whether these tools can reliably reveal behavior patterns that impact job success.
If they are legal or reliable to use in influencing hiring decisions.
How they can become a powerful advantage in employee development, communication, and culture-building.
The Pros & Cons HR must navigate when incorporating assessments into people practices.
