How We Can Help
The scope of work includes but is not limited to:
Consulting Services
We offer consulting services on various human resource related matters including recruitment and selection, training and development, organizational development, Skills audits, Job profiling, talent retention and succession planning strategies, HR strategy development, climate surveys, diversity management as well as change management.
Psychometric Assessments
The use of psychometric tools provides great value to organisations that have a need to measure constructs such as cognitive abilities, personality and learning potential of their employees or potential employees. Psychometric assessments can be used by organisations for various purposes including: selection of staff, development programmes, e.g. leadership development, allocating bursaries or learnerships / graduate programs and career guidance. The choice of an appropriate battery depends only on the purpose for which assessments are to be conducted and the competencies that are to be measured. In addition to the above we also offer work based simulation exercises and role-plays.
Medico Legal Assessments and Reports
Medico-legal reports are evaluations written by medical professionals and used in legal cases when medical knowledge is needed. They are often required when you claim for personal injury or medical negligence. We work with legal attorneys in conducting assessments on a person's health and psychological wellbeing in relation to a legal case.
Organizational Development
We assist organizations with implementation of programs that enable high performance culture and utilize their most valued resources, human capital, to improve efficiency. We do this through various techniques including conducting culture and climate surveys in order to assess the environment and identify any issues that could pose as obstacles to achieving high performance.
Business Coaching
Business coaching helps individuals close the gap between current and ideal performance in the workplace. MRD uses a variety of assessment methods and coaching methodologies including one on-one conversations with clients in order to provide practical solutions and achieve work related goals.
Personal Development Plan
Research shows that there are few individuals who are able to assess their current capabilities and plan for their lives. In order for organization to remain competitive and effective in the marketplace, it is crucial that they focus on individual developmental plans. Individual developmental plans will mean that each individual is continuously developing their competencies required to be productive in the workplace. A holistic approach is used to assist individual to align their plans with their personal and work goals.
