This book shares examples of how assessment has been used to support organisations' success. It shares the experiences of some of the United Kingdom's best Business Psychology Practitioners in case studies which demonstrate how Business Psychology works, in practice, to improve organisational performance. There are many professionals who recognise the value of applying science in their work with people, and who are looking for practical ways to do this. I hope the case studies collected here will help them find their way. For experienced Practitioners, I hope they will apply this content to benchmarking their practice; perhaps also finding new ideas to try. Each case study has been peer reviewed and evaluated based on its reflection of the practice of Business Psychology, effective application of conceptual business and psychological models and validated, evidenced impact. The case studies shared in this book have been collected by the Association for Business Psychology through the Workforce Experience Awards programme.
