A clear view of potential

You need to know the people you employ. You need to know how they will work within your organisation, how they will respond to different situations and challenges.

The CPI 260® instrument is a highly reliable, multi-purpose personality questionnaire used throughout the world to predict behaviour. It has been continually refined and updated.

By assessing a range of personality characteristics including relationships with people, thinking and problem-solving style, motivation and drives, team working, leadership and selling and influencing styles, the CPI 260 will give you a full picture of the people that constitute your business.

The 260 instrument is a shorter version of the 434 questionnaire, enabling more rapid administration time whilst maintaining the richness and reliability of the CPI 434. The CPI 260 questionnaire is only available electronically via OPPassessment. For more information about OPPassessment contact our Client Support Team.

Advantages

The CPI tool is useful for:

Recruitment and selection – identify candidates who are likely to perform well in the role and the organisation.

Developing managers and leaders – create an in-depth portrait of an individual’s management and leadership potential. Use this to create a development plan, which may include executive coaching, and align this to organisational competencies.

Individual development – use the individual’s CPI profile to create a development plan that builds on their existing skills, and current and future interests and role requirements.

Retention – create employee engagement through individual development plans informed by CPI profiles.

Benefits

Recently revised and updated, increasing its accuracy and relevance to European English users, the CPI is extremely difficult to fake, even by test-sophisticated clients. It produces a comprehensive profile of personality, and there is extensive evidence of it reducing selection errors.
