Watch our introduction to PsyCap Potential™—a BPS-validated psychometric assessment that combines mental agility and personality into one assessment experience.

PsyCap Potential™ allows you to measure 5 critical psychological capabilities – Mental Agility, Emotional Agility, Confidence, Resilience and Drive. It compares potential across different talent populations, and gives individuals powerful insights to help realise their potential.

Why Potential is Important

1.) Performance vs Potential – Performance alone is not enough to predict future success. You need to look at Potential as it is the critical factor to predict success tomorrow. Just look at the data:

• 74% of organisations identify high potentials via performance appraisals
• 70% of ‘high performers’ are not ‘high potentials’
• 50% of new leaders fail on the job
• 90% of high performers struggle with higher levels of responsibility

2.) Skills Vs Capabilities – the skills talking point is very topical, yet we challenge this idea and see it as a possible talent fad, pushed by the market. While skills are important, they become redundant quickly and will not determine what talent is going to thrive in our fast-changing VUCA world. PsyCap Potential™ looks at the 5 critical psychological capabilities to succeed in a VUCA world.

3.) The cost of getting this wrong is phenomenal, costing British businesses £85bn per year! That is an astounding amount of wastage

The PsyCap Potential™ psychometric was developed based on this model, to help predict leadership potential, and to help identify areas for development to support leaders’ progression.
