Approach to defining a minimum standard
Based on the insights from the review about current practice, discussions about solutions to issues and other points raised during the workshop the participants discussed minimum standards in small groups and made their suggestions on a chart visible to all.
An approach was agreed in plenary and only points finding general acceptance were included in the minimum standards. The minimum standard was captured and actions agreed.

What is a Success Profile?
• Way of capturing the essential skills, knowledge, experience and personal attributes that would set someone up for success in a critical role or leadership level.
• Separates out distinct types of data and evidence into specific categories.
• It should clearly link back to the business context – Emerging out of future focussed discussions about business challenges and opportunities.
• Created through interviews with key business leaders.
• It’s not a job description, can complement one.
• Not, “what would be nice if…” more… “What would they struggle without…”
• Is specific to the level or the role and the business.

Integrate Data
• Each interviewer posts his or her target ratings.
• Interviewers discuss and exchange data to reach a consensus rating for each target.
• Based on the consensus ratings, interviewers decide whether to retain or reject each candidate.
![Page 51: Associated British Foods plc Minimum Standards in Selection: GWF May 2013](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110100/56649e115503460f94afcfec/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
51
Retain/ Reject Factors
• Relative importance of targets. Some are more critical to the job than others.
• Trainability of targets. Some targets represent trainable
behaviors. Some targets are difficult, if not impossible, to train (such as Initiating Action).
• Inter-relationships of targets. A high rating in one target can compensate for a low rating in another.
• Motivational Fit. A candidate must want to carry out the job’s tasks, activities, and responsibilities; that’s why motivation and “Fit” is important when making the retain-reject decision.

WHAT IS PERSONALITY
AND WHY IS IT IMPORTANT?
![Page 72: Associated British Foods plc Minimum Standards in Selection: GWF May 2013](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110100/56649e115503460f94afcfec/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
72
What is Personality
From the Inside
Personality from the inside is defined in terms of a person’s identity
• Used to explain a person’s performance
• Reflect people’s core values.
![Page 73: Associated British Foods plc Minimum Standards in Selection: GWF May 2013](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110100/56649e115503460f94afcfec/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
73
What is Personality
From the Outside
Personality from the outside is equivalent to a person’s reputation
• It is defined in terms of traits (e.g. calm, shy, careful, etc.)
• Used to predict a person’s performance
• Reflects how a person’s behaviour has been evaluated after repeated interactions with others
• Easy to study – most of what we know about personality and job performance is based on this
![Page 74: Associated British Foods plc Minimum Standards in Selection: GWF May 2013](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110100/56649e115503460f94afcfec/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
74
Socio-Analytic Theory
• People are group living animals. As a result, we are all, at a deep, unconscious level, driven by three general motives:
– A desire to be liked and accepted by others
– A desire to achieve some status and control of resources
– A desire to make sense out of our lives
• These needs are met through interaction at work. Organisations need people to do the work; people need organisations to fulfill their most important needs:
– Social contact
– Status and power
– Gain meaning and purpose to their lives
![Page 75: Associated British Foods plc Minimum Standards in Selection: GWF May 2013](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110100/56649e115503460f94afcfec/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
Why Personality Matters
General Reasons People Fail
• Poor Fit with Job
• Poor Fit with Organisation
Reasons Leaders Fail
• Inability to build and motivate a team
• Inability to develop or adapt
• Poor working relations
• Lack of vision or “big picture”
• No strategic execution
![Page 76: Associated British Foods plc Minimum Standards in Selection: GWF May 2013](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110100/56649e115503460f94afcfec/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
76
Jobs and Personality
• Different jobs have different psychological requirements (Air Traffic Controllers Vs. Sales)
• Every job has a unique psychological profile, and some people fit better than others

• Important pieces of data are ignored – Especially personality data.
• Strong characters push for their favoured candidate.
• Sense of urgency to fill role wins out over concerns.
• Lack of risk management around the concerns when appointing.
