Needs Analysis

Needs Analysis At TAG/DDI, we believe that the successful implementation of a leadership or workforce development initiative must begin with a thorough needs analysis or other structured assessment. In accordance with this belief, we offer a wide range of needs analysis and assessment processes and tools. Each of these needs analysis tools contains one version to collect self-assessment data from a group of learners, and another version to collect responses from a set of individuals who have observed members of the learner population in workplace settings (e.g., direct reports or managers).

The Leadership Needs Analysis targets leadership skills, while the Workforce Needs Analysis focuses on needs of individual contributors. For each question, respondents are asked to rate the ability of the target population of leaders or individual contributors to demonstrate the behavior/skill, and also the importance of demonstrating this behavior/skill in the workplace. TAG/DDI consultants are available to conduct the proper needs analyses for organizations that require this support.
