Restructure keeps Queensland Rail on track

CompAssess Brisbane has helped a key division of Queensland Rail to successfully restructure its management team. The project involved designing new management positions and implementing an assessment process to identify the team’s capability against the new structure.

By implementing a robust and objective assessment process Queensland Rail has been able to place individuals into roles that best utilise their strengths. The assessment results have also provided team members with valuable information to drive their ongoing professional development.

Leadership development program gives NAB the technical edge

CompAssess has helped the Technology Division of National Australia Bank (NAB Technology) to implement a comprehensive assessment and development program for its technology leaders.

The project involved the design and delivery of an online 360 degree survey for 230 technology managers. Over 2,500 respondents completed the survey including their managers, direct reports, peers and internal customers.

To support the effective translation of the 360 results into actionable development plans, CompAssess also delivered a 3 module training program to over 60 senior technology executives. This covered interpretation of the 360s, development fundamentals, and coaching skills. This enabled the senior executives to work with the technology managers on their individual development plans using the results of the 360 survey.

CompAssess also helped NAB develop a comprehensive Development Planning Kit to help the technology managers and senior executives implement self directed, on-the-job and external development activities.
