Talent assessments to strengthen your organisational capability
Capability assessments for leadership development, talent acquisition and succession
If your organisation is going to execute its business strategy successfully over the next three to five years, you must have the right talent and capability locked down. But what do “talent” and “leadership” mean for your organisation, across all levels of leadership? And can you effectively assess, maintain and build these capabilities?
Establishing a robust view of and process around talent and leadership assessment is critical to guide your talent acquisition, capability development, and succession plans. Let us help your organisation ensure you have the required talent capability to achieve your business goals.

How Mercer Evolve can help
In today’s business landscape, boards and CEOs are asking three key questions:
-
Who are the organisation’s successors?
-
How do we know?
-
How do we close our succession gaps?
- 1 1. Who are the organisation’s successors?
- 2 2. How do we know?
- 3 3. How do we close our succession gaps?
Mercer has developed a validated, best-practice leadership succession-readiness assessment that can be applied to both benchmarking and profiling internal and external talent.
Our methodology ensures that your organization has the best available talent in place to meet your strategic objectives and that you are best positioned to identify, develop, and retain talent and manage succession more proactively.
Mercer Evolve helps you achieve the following high-level outcomes:
- Insights into your leadership bench strength and the succession readiness of internal talent
- Detailed internal succession plans for each critical role, protecting business continuity
- Tailored reporting for key stakeholders, such as the board and executive leadership team
- Deep insights into available external top talent and the ability to top grade (through targeted talent acquisition) on an opportunistic basis, if you have an internal succession gap
Mercer Evolve helps your organisation:
- Clearly identify succession risk gaps
- Build accelerated capability-development plans to ready leaders who have the potential, capacity and aspiration to progress to the challenges of the next role
- Gather talent intelligence and produce deep insights into available external top talent, giving you the ability to top grade (through targeted talent acquisition) to close internal gaps
