SEARCH PROCESS

Competency-based Approach for Transformative Leadership

Woodhouse Search uses a competency-based approach, evaluating a candidate's job-related skills and behaviors through specific questions about past experiences. This structured method emphasizes key competencies and objective criteria, promoting fairness and reducing bias in assessing a candidate's future performance.

This process is tailored to align with the unique needs of organizations, ensuring the identification and placement of leadership that fosters success.
