Innovation Talent Assessment

Are you a fit?

Use the Innovation Talent Assessment and see if you are a fit for an exceptional open-minded innovation team. The job is not about building the next product generation but creating a novelty that rocks customers and markets. Curiosity is not a nice buzzword but a rock-solid cognitive trait. Creativity is not about art but a cognitive trait that sees solutions where 100 others gave up. Clairvoyance is not a mystic talent but a powerful ability to identify an opportunity where others see nothing or just a lot of work.

Obviously you can cheat and try to compete for a great result. But that would cost you a good chunk of your career.

Results

The results from your Innovation Talent Assessment will be sent to you by email. We will not share your data in any way or shape with others unless we have your specific approval. But we may share the best matching innovation career opportunities with you as we get asked by many customers.

Let’s go

It helps to put the analysis in context.

Live is too short to jump on every opportunity.Most people don't like change and I don't want to force others to change. Innovation is good but not always.
