The idea of benchmarking jobs is a very effective first step to ensure getting the right person in the right job. However, that’s just the beginning. For years organizations have been paying top dollar for training, development and coaching, but towards what? Why is a person being developed? What expectations are the coaching and/or training supposed to deliver?

The answer is simple. If the job hasn’t been benchmarked, you don’t know, no one does. Benchmarking should be the first step in any talent related process, period. In order to achieve results and affect change, you must first know what the job is calling for. If the job could talk, what would it say?

TTI Value Added Associates are the best in the world at benchmarking jobs. How can we say that? We have the patent on it. Yes, TTI has trained its Value Added Associates on our patented job benchmarking process. The experience itself is money in the bank. First you go through a discovery process in order to establish key accountabilities, and then you move through a job assessment in order to get a clear and objective view of the job requirements as they relate to personal skills, behaviors and motivators of the job. Once this is in place, you can easily compare current and potential talent to the job in order to assist in hiring, development, training and performance management.
