Incentive Planning

There are as many ways to design an incentive compensation plan as there are to do business. There are, nonetheless, some universal design features to consider. The incentive can be paid in cash, property (e.g., stock), or benefits. Cash is king, but depending on the company's culture, incentives in the form of benefits or company stock may produce better results.

At Sharp Minds, we make sure that the plan carefully correlates the incentive award with the goal the company wishes the employee to achieve and at the same time ensure the incentive will not motivate bad behavior.

Psychometric Testing

At Sharp Minds, we have three categories of psychometric testing:
1- Ability testing measures a person’s potential to learn new skills or to cope with the pressures of a specific job.
2- Aptitude testing is also job related, but focuses on specific job areas and how the test taker would perform in a defined role.
3- Personality testing covers how a person acts in the workplace in relation to different personality types. It can determine how the test taker would deal with someone of the direct opposite personality type, and suggest to management how to get the best results from someone with a certain personality type.

Recruitment and Hosting

At Sharp Minds, we have a search strategy to help you find the most adequate profiles. You can choose to recruit the winning candidates or place them under our employ. In addition to the recruitment/hosting process itself, we also work so your business can reap many rewards and benefits from having a comprehensive employee recruitment strategy, as it will help you:     
-Attract the right people with the right skills, experiences, talents, etc.
-Hire the right people for the right jobs
-Reduce employee turnover costs, which also reduces service disruptions
-Maintain a consistent process that helps minimize liability
-Find time for coaching engaged and productive employees (instead of time spent on finding and interviewing applicants to replace employees lost to high turnover rates)
-Strengthen your foundation for sustaining high employee morale, which is especially important since employees drive desired business outcomes
-Provide a mechanism for identifying future talent needs
