ecap advantage gives organisations across the Middle East access to Matthew Syed Consulting's psychometric suite, delivered by ecap.
For leadership appointments: roles across the region are increasingly created with limited precedent, where track record explains where a leader has been but not how they will operate when conditions change. Mindset Advantage provides that missing evidence: how a leader thinks, learns, and adapts.
For leadership and team effectiveness: the diagnostics show where performance can grow. Mindset Advantage identifies the behaviours with the greatest potential for development, and Collective Advantage shows how a leadership team performs together under pressure.
Recruit and develop resilient, agile leaders who can confidently lead through change.
Designed specifically to measure and build a growth mindset at an individual, team, and organisational level. Evaluates nine aspects of an individual’s growth mindset, together with six aspects of the organisational culture that supports growth and learning.
The diagnostic takes 15 to 20 minutes to complete, works on any device, and is straightforward to deploy at scale.
Build high-performing teams where people speak up, collaborate, and innovate.
Measures psychological safety across a team, function, or organisation on four dimensions: inclusion, working together, constructive challenge, and learning from experience.
Each dimension is scored from risk through to differentiator, with response-rate data indicating the reliability of the findings.
Both diagnostics developed by Matthew Syed Consulting.
The wider performance suite is available through ecap advantage across the Middle East.
