Learning Agility has been positioned as one of the key ingredients needed in a high change world. It is argued that skills, jobs, organisations and even whole economies will need to be viewed from a change perspective. People will need to self-evolve in order to cope with this level of change.Learning Agility has also proved a very popular model in assessing high potential leaders. This popularity has been criticised for running ahead of the empirical data around this meta construct. This article summarises the learning agility literature from a practical perspective and shares some new data on how the Learning Agility model has been researched and applied in a high change setting.

At the turn of the nineteenth to the twentieth century, there was great interest in the role of the unconscious in the development of psychological dysfunction, although the construct motive, or specific motives, was not widely acknowledged. This, the second article in a series on motivation, traces the route to the emergence of such a construct in the 1930s and early 1940s. Our starting point is a compilation, Birney and Teevan, (1962), consisting of reprinted sequential landmark contributions, entitled ‘Measuring human motivation: An enduring problem in psychology’.

The authors have collected information on personal values across a range of industries, enabling them to understand where the greatest individual differences exist across industries. In this article they share these insights and explore the impact for increasing cultural fit and building a high-performing culture.

Identifying and developing individuals with the potential to progress is crucial to an organisation’s growth, success and survival. This article includes a review of current thinking on leadership potential and then goes on to suggest robust ways to measure this, alongside assessment of performance, using a combination of bespoke behavioural simulations, psychometrics and a complex processing test.

A recent meta-analysis found a negative relationship between Emotional Intelligence (EI) and the dark triad. In the present paper it is proposed that measuring EI as a linear construct (more is always better) does not take into account the dynamic variability in some facets of EI that are better measured as non-linear constructs.

The Civil Service’s diversity ambition is to become the most inclusive employer in the United Kingdom by 2020. This session will explore the decisions and steps taken to ensure fairness and accessibility when designing a suite of multimedia item banked assessments. The tests have been used across the Civil Service since 2017 and by December 2019, there have been over half a million test instances, with the test used in thousands of vacancies.This article focuses on the decisions made across the design process, as well as the steps taken to update and redevelop the test to ensure it is fair, robust and accessible to the widest range of candidates possible.
