	Among the various uses of assessment techniques, those at the organizational level are highly significant, providing accurate information for analyzing teams, departments, and management during substantial changes such as mergers or reorganizations. This information is crucial for making quick, critical decisions about people, impacting their future development, engagement, and performance.

	The publisher’s business model and the quality of the assessment technique are prior and determining elements that influence the use of the latter. There is no measurement without the technique. The business model implemented by the consultant will determine the degree of autonomy in the technique's processing and use within the organization. When the consultant retains control over the technique, leaders and managers cannot use it for frequent applications relevant to their roles that exceed the publisher’s and consultant’s capabilities. Moreover, not all assessment techniques possess the qualities required to perform all imaginable tasks. Specific characteristics and methods are necessary to deploy the technique in some applications, such as job descriptions (work-relatedness) or mergers and acquisitions (comparisons and re-grouping of measures). These observations make it possible to construct the following Hypothesis 11:		The publisher’s business model and the quality of the assessment technique are prior and determining elements that influence the use of the latter.

	Between ordinary parallel techniques and advanced statistics-based techniques, the range of available techniques is broad. Some organizations and individuals are more willing to use advanced assessment techniques than others, or are not willing to use any advanced techniques, preferring parallel techniques. Every organization, every person, has their beliefs about human beings, why people do what they do the way they do it. The characteristics of the environment and users before the first uses, as well as during use — because these characteristics evolve – suggest minimal dispositions and a progression of these dispositions for using some assessment techniques.

Assessment techniques have a long history in mass recruitment, executive search, and promotions. Research has focused heavily on mass recruitment, ensuring compliance with regulations such as the EEOC and ADA, work-relatedness, reliability, and validity. When these criteria are met, the techniques add incremental value to improving performance. Interviewers can combine objective assessment data with immediate subjective insights. GRI observes that assessment results are used to quickly tailor the job to the candidate or vice-versa, with the quality of information, job relevance, and the candidate's behavioral adaptability being crucial decision elements. These observations lead to the formulation of the following Hypothesis 4.

	Clinical settings refer to health and well-being services, such as Employee Assistance Programs (EAPs), which are increasingly common corporate standards. Assessment techniques originated in clinical practice in the late 1890s and are still used by clinicians for diagnosis, therapy, and counseling. The use of these health services, often aided by new digital tools and AI, has increased since the onset of the pandemic. These clinical services, distinct from coaching, focus on therapy and have proven effective in treating mental health issues<ref>Lyra (2025). State of Workforce Mental Health Report.

At GRI, we’ve observed clinicians using non-traditional assessments, such as MBTI or the Enneagram, to gain unique insights for diagnosing individual challenges and counseling work-related issues. The more nuanced information from assessment techniques is expected to help improve mental health, address systemic workplace factors, enhance self-awareness, and, consequently, improve organizational performance. These observations make it possible to construct the following Hypothesis 5:		Clinical settings refer to health and well-being services, such as Employee Assistance Programs (EAPs), which are increasingly common corporate standards.
