The research behind the insight

Depth you can explore.
Insight you can put to work.

Harrison combines decades of application with a detailed behavioural framework, helping leaders understand both individual preferences and the demands of the work.

A documented research foundation

Harrison has been used worldwide for more than 30 years. Its published technical manual describes studies of score consistency over time and evidence of content, construct and job-performance-related validity for the Harrison Suitability Assessment. This provides a research foundation for interpreting findings in selection and development.

A detailed view of people at work

The SmartQuestionnaire measures 175 workplace factors, including behavioural preferences, motivations and interests. Its reports connect those findings with role requirements, giving hiring, coaching and development conversations a specific workplace context.

Strengths understood in balance

Enjoyment-Performance Theory explores the connection between what people enjoy and the behaviours they practise. Paradox Theory examines complementary behaviours, such as confidence and openness, to reveal how strengths work together and where greater balance could support effectiveness.

As a Certified Harrison Assessments Consultant, Lina translates this depth into clear, relevant conversations and practical development priorities for your organization.

Where the insight helps

One connected view.
Many practical applications.

Talent selection

Explore job-related behavioural preferences and use assessment-informed interview questions to examine fit with the role. Combine the findings with interviews, experience and other relevant evidence.

Leadership development

Explore how a leader’s behavioural strengths interact. Harrison’s Paradox approach examines complementary behaviours, for example, confidence alongside openness to others’ ideas, and where a strength may need balance.

Executive coaching

Create a focused starting point for reflection. Use an individual’s findings to identify development themes, discuss real workplace situations and agree on actions to practise.

04 / APPLICATION

Team effectiveness

Give teams a shared language for discussing behaviour, collaboration and potential blind spots. Team Paradox insights can inform facilitated conversations and development priorities.

05 / APPLICATION

Engagement & retention

Explore employees’ work expectations and how well those expectations are being met. Use the findings to focus leadership conversations and identify practical areas for attention.

06 / APPLICATION

Succession & development

Use behavioural and competency insight to inform development priorities and leadership pipeline discussions. Connect individual learning needs with the capabilities your organization will need next.

From insight to application

A thoughtful process.
A practical outcome.

  • Define the business or development question
  • Choose the relevant assessment and reporting approach
  • Interpret findings in the context of the role and organization
  • Agree on a practical hiring, coaching or team action plan

Assessment findings inform professional discussion and decision-making; they do not guarantee hiring outcomes or replace a well-designed selection process.

A conversation is a good place to start
