According to a recent London BusinessSchool report, 2020 - 2030: The Decade ofthe Acuity Leader, the 2020s will be dominated by peer-to-peer onlineplatforms, overwhelming analytics and fake news. Trust and belief in 'expertauthority' is at a historic low.
Navigating this age as a business leaderwill require the development of acuity: a concept that calls for greaterattentiveness in how leaders perceive, interpret and describe the world toothers. The acuity leader will be seen as accessible and actively engaged indifferent internal and external forums, well-read and connected and comfortablewith diversity and dissension.

As evidenced in a recent ManpowerGroup articleentitled "Workers Want Personalization -- People Strategy Must be Both aScience and an Art" (Closing theSkills Gap: What Workers Want report), in an increasingly data-drivenworld, workers want assignments that test their abilities, projects that demandthe best from them, and recommendations on the next role. They want insight andadvice on fit today and potential tomorrow.
This is where the assessment comes in—critical for understanding human potential. It allows employers to better match and motivate people while helping individuals to get to know even more about themselves.
"Science-based assessments are themost accurate and reliable tool for placing the right person in the right job.As well as testing technical skills, assessments measure human strengths thatare critical predictors of success such as how rewarding someone is to dealwith, their ability to do the job, and their willingness to work hard. That'sthe science part," said Dr. Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic, Chief TalentScientist of the ManpowerGroup.
