Six Tips for Getting the Most from Your PI^® Annual Fee

One of the questions we hear often from clients is: Am I getting get the most for my Predictive Index^® annual fee?  We appreciate your desire to get the most for your money.  Here are our top six tips to do just that:

1. Engage with a PI^® learning opportunity at least twice a year. (Learning PI is a process, not an event.)   Here are examples:
   • Attend a webinar:
   1. PI^® Fridays (refresher offered monthly to trained PI Analysts)
   2. Using PI^® in Hiring (offered monthly to trained PI Analysts)
   • Attend PI User Group meetings (offered annually, alternating sites in Michigan and Indiana)
   • Attend another PI Management Training™ class (anyone who has completed the class can audit the class again free-of-charge if they attend with one paid attendee from their company).
   • Post a question or describe a challenge on a social network of like-minded peers sharing best practices – i.e., the ADVISA PI Analysts group on LinkedIn
2. Set a goal to make PI part of your culture over time. Work with your consultant on a plan to integrate PI into performance reviews, talent reviews and career planning.
3. Take the time to complete a Performance Requirement Options™ (PRO) form for every job opening you have. Reflect the behaviors described by the PRO in the job description (we can show you how).
4. Use PI early in your hiring process and for every candidate. Use the PI profiles of new hires and their supervisors to coach both on how best to work with each other.
5. Request a Group Analytics report of the members of your organization’s executive team, leadership group and/or each department; discuss with the group the implications of averages and outliers.
6. Talk with your consultant at least once a quarter about business challenges you have. Use him or her as a resource for more ideas on how to best put PI to use improving business outcomes.
