Potential for what? The unachievable ask

Presented by

Sebastian Teijeiro, Business Psychologist and Josie Truscott, Chartered and Registered Occupational and Forensic Psychologist

About this talk

"Potential is about performance for the future. Can this person become something more?" How can we measure or understand who is 'high potential'? In this session, Chartered and Registered Occupational and Forensic Psychologist Josie Truscott, and Business Psychologist Sebastian Teijeiro, discuss: - How can organisations identify and support talented people? - What does potential mean and can we measure it? - What are the drawbacks of 'success models' and how do we future-proof our definitions of potential? - How can you identify what good looks like for your organisation? - You’ve found potential – so what? What are you going to do about it? - The bias of potential Sebastian is a business psychologist specialised in leadership and SME assessments, with extensive experience gained over more than 16 years working with Fortune 500 organisations, mainly in Europe and Latin America. He is the director of Atelier Insights, a boutique consultancy specialised in talent assessment solutions. He is particularly keen on the challenges behind concepts commonly used in the organisational world (such as ‘potential’) and on the impact assessment and development related initiatives have on employees, especially in terms of justice and fairness. Josie is a chartered and registered occupational and forensic psychologist and lectures in psychology at university. Her career has focused on assessment in the public sector (Department for Work & Pensions, the Prison Service and Learning & Police). Latterly, she moved into consulting, specialising in the assessment of senior leaders for recruitment, development and promotion. She has a particular interest in neurodivergency and encouraging cognitive diversity.
