Profiles WorkForce Compatibility is a workforce development assessment that provides insight into the unique working characteristics that can impact the employee/manager relationship.
The relationship between a manager and an employee can significantly impact workforce development and employee performance. Whether the impact is positive or negative is often the direct result of their understanding of each other's work habits and style. Managers who are "out of touch" with their employees often cause low productivity, dwindling morale and high employee turnover, while employees who feel a connection to their manager are often highly productive and engaged in their work.
