We assess leadership behavior, decision-making and context fit before placement. Your critical projects start with the right person in charge.
"Most critical projects don't fail because of planning, tooling or effort. They fail because the wrong project manager is put in charge."
We don't send CVs. We analyze your project context, define the leadership profile required, and match based on structured behavioral data.
We evaluate every dimension against your own project situation. We do not use a generic ideal profile.
How a project manager leads when stakes are high, information is incomplete, and teams look for direction.
The ability to make sound decisions when facing uncertainty, time pressure, and competing stakeholder interests.
Patterns in managing upward, lateral and team-level communication, especially during escalation.
Alignment with your organization's pace, ambiguity tolerance, and the specific dynamics of the project team.
A validated analysis of behavioral patterns in a professional project management context. The PM Potential Analysis forms the basis of the Project Manager Qualification Assessment. The analysis process follows DIN 33430.
Bringing about decisions, prioritising and directing. How a project manager steers towards results.
Clarifying expectations, creating engagement and getting teams moving. Leadership behavior that delivers results.
Making binding agreements, resolving conflicts and aligning stakeholders. The soft side that makes or breaks projects.
Approx. 60 minutes. Self-assessment and behavioral analysis via a validated online assessment.
Within 24 hours of taking the test you receive a comprehensive PDF report of the results.
The discussion follows afterwards at an appointment we schedule together, 1.5 to 3 hours with a consultant. Blind spots, confirmations and development areas.
Concrete guidance for professional growth, coaching or targeted deployment on projects.
Pulse of the Profession 2026 by PMI, with 2,534 participants across 35 countries, finds that 31% of complex projects fail to achieve the full scope of their intended benefits. Projects that manage complexity effectively are five times more likely to succeed. That is what our qualification targets.
Shorter onboarding. Someone assessed on behaviour and context beforehand has less to work out in the first weeks.
Reduced friction, fewer handovers, clearer expectations on both sides from day one.
Stakeholders and team members respond better to a leader matched on behavior than to one with credentials alone.
Lower risk of having to replace someone mid-project. What this delivers is risk control.
Not every project needs this level of selection. Here's when it matters most.
No abstract personality profiling. We assess behaviour in a project context.
No unexplained scoring models. Every assessment dimension is transparent and project-specific.
We never reduce candidates to one number. Qualification supports your decision. You still make it.
Data informs the process. Human judgment completes it. We never outsource the decision to an algorithm.
We work with a limited number of clients. Quality and fit always come before scale or volume.
Not every request leads to a placement. We say so upfront when we're not the right match.
