Aon Hewitt Releases Executive Assessment Solution

April 16, 2013 – To help companies identify and develop strong leaders throughout all levels of the organization, Aon Hewitt, the global human resource solutions business, has unveiled its next generation of LEADeR, a suite of assessment tools that enable organizations to measure and assess managers’ readiness for leadership roles. A recent Aon Hewitt leadership study found that mid- and senior-level leaders are viewed as the most critical roles in organizations but are also the most challenging to attract and retain. Companies are addressing this challenge by increasingly relying on assessment and development programs to build strong and agile leadership pipelines. Veronica Harvey, a partner in Aon Hewitt’s performance, reward and talent practice, said: “Our fully updated LEADeR solution offers a menu of first-in-class assessment options to help an organization identify highly talented individuals and accelerate the development of high-potential leaders who can drive the organization’s long-term strategy and position it for future success.”
