Management Candidate Profile
The Work Flow Process Model
Career development, promoting from within, and continuing education are all critical
factors to developing a work force that is able to deal with the rapid changes as we
approach the 21st century.
The Management Candidate Profile (MCP) is a 360 degree tool specifically designed to
assess behavior of non-managers.
Most individuals are promoted for having strong technical skills, however they often
lack a thorough understanding of the skills required to be an effective leader. The MCP
allows the individual, his/her boss, co-workers and even people outside the company to
provide feedback on the individual's behavior.
The MCP measures behavior in 10 important areas:
- Goals
- Communication
- Planning
- Innovation/Risk
- Decision Making
- Motivation
- Quality/Continuous Improvement
- Feedback
- Control
- Relationships
How the Process Works
There are two versions of the MCP - "self" and "others". Both
inventories have 63 questions.
The "self" version is completed by the individual. In addition to the
sixty-three questions, the "self" version includes two situations where the
candidate is asked to select the answer that best describes how he or she would respond to
a problematic situation. The first situation involves a long-term employee who is a good
worker, but has an "attitude problem". The second situation involves a possible
conflict of interest.
The "others" version of the MCP can be completed by co-workers, the
individual's current boss, or others outside the organization. It is possible you have
a star who has not had the opportunity to shine yet.
Many people do volunteer work outside their place of employment. These same
individuals, who have never held a leadership position at work, may already be scheduling,
budgeting, long-range planning and providing feedback or coaching to others. The MCP can
help identify these people.
The MCP Feedback Report is easy to use, interpret, and apply. The report clearly
shows strengths and training needs.
Below is an example of the feedback for Goals and for one of the situations. As you can
see, the feedback emphasizes development.
