Personal Details

Bio

As a measurement strategist, Whitney’s passion and expertise lies in the field of surveys and assessments. A self-professed “data nerd,” Whitney has a Master’s degree in the area of Human Resources Measurement and Evaluation and has conducted extensive research on the predictive validity of various hiring assessment strategies.

Thanks to over a decade functioning as a “vendor-agnostic” consultant, Whitney provides a unique perspective on the broad landscape of the testing and assessment industry. She is a firm believer that there are no one-size-fits-all “best” products, and that tools and vendors should be selected based on their ability to solve a specific problem. She spends much of her time studying the available tools in the marketplace, scrutinizing the science, and analyzing the strengths, weaknesses, and appropriate uses for each.

Whitney has been a highly rated speaker at several National HR Conferences and has authored articles on assessments for several books and publications, including Harvard Business Review. She is a member of the Society for Industrial & Organizational Psychology (SIOP) and has two decades of experience working in the assessment industry.

The Assessment Advantage: Five vital business outcomes positively impacted by hiring assessments

Accurate. Fair. Inclusive. Engaging. Efficacious. If you cannot use all five of these words to describe your selection process, this session is a must-attend; because all five of these objectives should be non-negotiable. We will explore tangible, practical ways to leverage assessment instruments to create highly aligned selection system that minimize bias, increase prediction, enhance candidate experience, and have a quantifiable impact to the metrics that matter most.

Learning objectives:
• Explore how to determine what specific traits, attributes, skills, and abilities matter most for your jobs, and learn and how to measure them.
• Discover multiple benefits of introducing additional objective data points into your selection process, including minimizing bias, increasing inclusion, and maximizing prediction.
• Learn how to leverage assessments in ways that candidates, hiring managers, and executives focused on measurable outcomes will appreciate.
