Management Training

The Profiles CheckPoint Management System is a powerful individualized manager training solution
Today's business leaders need manager training solutions that will help their employees succeed in a wide range of employment situations. At Profiles International, we combine the process of evaluating powerful organizational information with a personalized manager training system to help managers improve the critical skills that are most needed by your organization.
Manager Training System
Profiles International offers an innovative manager training system through our exclusive Checkpoint 360 Degree Feedback System. The program combines direct feedback by direct reports, peers, supervisors, as well as customers, with a personalized program for developing specific leadership skills based on that feedback. By starting from the real experiences of the people around the leader we can identify and capture both the leader’s strengths as well as areas that require development. Profiles International technology makes deploying the 360 degree feedback survey very easy. Managers and the people who they interact with the most participate in a brief online survey. Then a powerful, full color report is created showing areas of alignment as well as gaps in effectiveness. This report provides tangible information to help the manager, as well as the organization, improve. From that point, managers are able to participate in an individualized Skill builder manager training series to build on the areas identified through the Checkpoint 360 Degree Feedback System.

The Profiles CheckPoint Management System offers an individualized three-part manager training solution
First, is an extensive Checkpoint 360 Degree Evaluation to provide managers with multi-rater feedback from those who observe their performance: their bosses, subordinates, and peers. This is an important process because increased awareness motivates managers to change the way they do their jobs. The experience of participating in our unique 360 degree feedback system fosters powerful leadership development.
Organizational Management Training
The second part of Checkpoint is an Organizational Management Analysis System that alerts top management to potential managerial problems that can develop when managers’ goals are not in alignment with the goals of the organization. It is a unique 360 degree feedback system for your organization. Having this information encourages leadership development on an individual level as well as across the enterprise. This information strengthens communication and builds stronger organizations. The Profiles Skill Builder Series rounds out the 360 degree feedback solution and is an organized management and leadership development program that addresses specific leadership skills identified in the Checkpoint survey as requiring improvement, enabling managers to pursue self-improvement in the areas most essential to improving their job performance. Consisting of 18 modules, managers create and complete a customized leadership development plan using Skill Builder modules. Unlike many courses and seminars, Skill Builder activities are available online and are integrated into a manager’s daily tasks. Being self-paced, Skill Builder modules easily fit into a leader’s schedule and tangibly accelerate effectiveness and efficiency.
