GRI Analysis
Know your manager's behavioral profile before choosing
At Manag-in, each manager is evaluated using the GRI (Growth Resources Indicator) — a behavioral analysis tool that reveals how the manager really performs under pressure.
Success in your industry doesn't just depend on technical skills. It depends on the manager's personal ability to integrate your culture, mobilize your teams and stay the course in uncertainty.
⚡ Unique on the market: traditional firms recruit on the basis of experience and network. Manag-in certifies each GRI profile to accurately identify the manager's personal ability to carry out your specific mission.
Decision Profile
How does the manager decide under pressure in your sector? Alone or collegial? Quickly or analytically?
Resistance to stress
Ability to maintain a clear course in the face of unforeseen events, internal tensions and customer or regulatory pressures.
Leadership style
Directive, participatory, transformational? The GRI identifies the right style for your industry organizational culture.
Cultural Adaptability
Ability to quickly integrate the implicit culture of your industry and position yourself with authority.
Results-oriented
The GRI distinguishes between process-oriented managers and results-oriented managers — fundamental to your industry.
Relational intelligence
Ability to manage customers, suppliers, regulators and partners with diplomacy and firmness simultaneously.
In your industry, two managers with identical resumes can produce radically different results. The GRI identifies which one is wired for your situation.
