10 Years - 10 Quantum Leaps

2

Saville Consulting's first product launch was titled

'Assessment Innovations – A quantum leap'

Here are our ten quantum leaps in ten years.

3

1: Performance-driven design

Wave's performance-

driven 'validation-centric'

methodology, enables us

to maximize on the

assurance that the

questionnaire measures

performance at work,

thus increasing the

return on investment for

our customers.

2: Higher validity in forecasting effectiveness at work

Wave's superior validity in

forecasting overall

effectiveness at work, and

being able to forecast an

external model of work

competencies more

effectively has been

demonstrated in a co-

validation research study.

3: Aligned model of potential and performance

A direct link between

motive, talent and

effective performance at

work, produces a

competency potential

score that can be tailored

to reflect organizational

competencies, leadership

frameworks and values.

6

4: Motives and talents

Wave was the first

questionnaire to

encompass both motives

(what drives performance)

and talent (the aspects an

individual is good at)

within a single

questionnaire.

5: Wave deep dives

Our three Wave deep dives

harness the power of the

internet to provide information

on areas of interest in candidate

reports (Facet splits),

differences between areas they

are good at and where their

interest lies (Motive-Talent

splits), and highlights

differences between their rating

and ranking responses

(Normative-Ipsative splits)

giving insight into how that

individual may perform under

pressure.

6: Dynamic response format

Wave's dynamic online

response format helps gain

an appreciation of the

overall self-perception of the

responder, whilst helping to

control excessive self-critical

and lenient responding.

7: Detailed facet level measurement

Two item facet scales

composed of one motive

and one talent item

measure highly-specific

behavioral areas. These

short facet scales provide

a good spread of scores,

are reliable and forecast

individual behavioral areas

effectively.

8: Culture fit

Wave's valuable culture fit

data helps individuals

consider what's important

for them in their working

environment and enables

them to select themselves

out of jobs which are less

appropriate for them.

11

9: Swift aptitude

The innovative use of

sub-tests which produce

our Swift combined tests,

allows the rapid

assessment of multiple

ability areas in one

efficient and effective

test.

12

10: Random assessments & Pace scores

'-R' assessments feature

variable content that allow

separate candidates to see

different but statistically

comparable tests

constructed from banks of

questions, alleviating

issues in the security of

online testing. Pace scores

provide information about

the individual's test taking

approach.
