Leadership & Management Assessments

We provide examinations for promotional and command staff hiring purposes. These exams are non-medical in nature, and may be performed prior to a conditional offer of employment (COE) on a group of finalists (generally three of four). While these exams share some features with our pre-employment exams, we assume that the candidates are psychologically and vocationally qualified to be public safety officers. Therefore, these exams focus on the candidate’s ability to lead others and manage effectively. Characteristics and abilities assessed include:

• Intelligence and communication skills
• Leadership skills
• Organizational skills
• Social skills and social judgment
• Management style
• Creativity and organizational vision
• Stress tolerance
• Work orientation
• Customer service orientation
• Ethics and integrity
