KASE
- profiling for project managers
The KASE information of a project manager is collected
through questionnaires supplemented with face-to-face
assessment. A common problem with questionnaires is
that they are affected by biases that are difficult
to determine, and are not well suited to the assessment
of skills or behaviours. Combining questionnaires with
structured interviews and case study reviews overcomes
many of these problems and yields very rich data, with
a high degree of predictive validity as well as having
excellent face validity.
This
session is a summary of the last 3 years of data collected
from over 3,000 participants. The data is analysed by
sector, job title and gender, and allows independent
examination of each of the elements of KASE.
The
highlights below are a taster of what Louise expanded
upon in the presentation:
- While
consultants come out highest in terms of their own
self assessment of experience they come out lowest
when assessed against all of the KASE factors combined
- Engineering
managers come out in the top 3 when assessed against
all KASE factors and yet perform relatively low
against traditional knowledge tests
- There
are over 800 distinct job titles represented, with
project leader increasingly becoming the standard
title for more junior PMs
