JPP - Job Performance Pro.file©
Whether someone is the ‘right person’ has more to do with character traits and innate capabilities than with specific knowledge, background or skills. 
Error-free hiring begins with the hiring manager’s rigorous analysis of the job in relation to corporate strategy and the desired organization culture. Directors and Boards
A Job Analysis Assessment Tool
The most essential and most often ignored portion of a Job Analysis is the assessment of the behaviours that need to be consistently exhibited in the role. In our experience the most important and consistent difference between below average, average and above average performers is not education, experience or even intelligence. It’s the natural ability of an individual to behave in a manner that’s highly consistent with the necessary job behaviours.
What happens when the Behavioral Job Analysis is forgotten or ignored?
One often seen example is around Detail Orientation, which is a requirement in every role and in every company. Hiring someone with too much Detail Orientation causes the person to be too slow and unresponsive due to their need to be accurate to 0.001 when all that’s required is accuracy of 0.1. They also cause a backlog of work with their unwillingness to delegate.
Not enough detail causes a person to be too lackadaisical with systems and follow through and an unwillingness to get involved in the work. The challenge is how does one define the degree of behaviors required in a role and more importantly how do you objectively measure that in a person? One of the most difficult challenges in recruitment assessment and employee promotion initiatives is clearly and specifically identifying the degree of behaviour required in a role.
How do I begin to understand and define what’s required in a role?
JPP is a brief Job Analysis Questionnaire designed to help organizations accurately define the most effective behaviors necessary for "high performance" based on a job description assessment and their organizational culture. It enables managers and human resource professionals to perform a functional job analysis and create job behavioral models that can be compared to an individual’s self assessment personality profile for: pre employment screening, recruitment, promotion, career development, employee coaching, employee retention and succession planning initiatives.
JPP behavioural job analysis tool creates a benchmark model of high performance characteristics for every role from entry level to executive level positions in any organization
