Shadowmatch Business Applications

Place people to thrive and reach their goals.
Benchmark Based
Shadowmatch takes a very unique but reliable approach by using top performers in a business to determine who will be best for that job when recruiting and placing people in a specific workplace environment.

The Shadowmatch system draws a map of behavioural patterns or habits present in the lives of people. It is a positive and rewarding experience for individuals to better understand their own habits and it is a reliable way of predicting future behaviour.
New Recruits
The system is very successfully used in placing people in a specific working environment based on (amongst other criteria) the congruency between the habits of an individual and that of the top performing group that are successful in doing the job.
Current Employees
The system enables clients to redeploy employees to a department most fitting to their habits and by doing so optimise employee performance.

Finding the best people in a business to fill senior positions in a company and to start with specific development programs for such individuals is one of the core functions of Shadowmatch being used very successfully by our clients.
Restructuring
Many companies go through restructuring of the business from time to time. Shadowmatch provides a scientific framework to do this with minimal negative effects on the performance of employees.
Leaders to Teams
Not any person in a leadership position can lead any team indiscriminately. Shadowmatch provides intelligence to ensure a good match between a leader and a team.

Team Behaviour Analysis
Teams are complex collective entities and the dynamics are very challenging to comprehend. Behavioral diversity is a term that describes the difference or similarity of the individuals within a team.
Shadowmatch provides a powerful team analysis and team development function that will not only optimise the success of your team but also the success of each individual team member.

Subgroups are behavior and relationship driven. The similarities and differences in behavior drive the subgroups and can provide important insight into the team such as …
