See how

employee
personality
can predict
performance

Would you relish the

opportunity to identify
how the personality of
employees predicts their
professional performance?
OPP is looking for organisations to join us in our 16PF

project.
We will administer questionnaires to staff and managers and
generate a business-focused report, giving you greater insight
into personality and performance in your workplace. And its all
free of charge.
The benets are not all one-way, of course. Your participation
will enable us to further our research, gathering data that
underlines the effectiveness of the 16PF questionnaire as a
predictor of job performance.
