Wie ist eine Potenzialanalyse aufgebaut?

A potential analysis can be carried out for companies that want to make the best possible use of their employees, for training companies and vocational schools, as well as for children, young people and adults who want to get to know their strengths and weaknesses and find the best life and career path. Depending on the target group, the services are structured differently and focus on different areas. Career counseling, for example, involves an initial interview to clarify the skills and interests of teenagers or young adults, carry out any tests and present options that are discussed in a possible second interview in order to take subsequent measures. In career counseling for adults, the current situation is discussed with those affected, goals and wishes, problems and uncertainties are discussed and solutions are sought. In a possible second interview, the goals are addressed, training or continuing education, further training is pointed out and help is provided with the job search. Various tests, such as personality tests, interest tests or performance tests, can be used to show the individual's potential.
In corporate HR development, a potential analysis begins with a detailed discussion about the employee's career to date and objectives. Various tests are also carried out to clarify skills, interests, performance and personality. Based on this information, the consultants draw up a skills profile that shows the strengths and weaknesses of the individual employee and suggest development prospects, career opportunities and possible training and continuing education, further training. The next steps are then discussed in a career plan and measures are taken to implement the findings of the potential analysis.
