HealtHcare cHallenges in 2010 and BeyondIt is projected that overall healthcare spending as a percentage of the gross domestic product in the U.S. could exceed 20% in the next 10 years. While the baby-boomer generation is poised to consume more healthcare services than any other in history, one of the biggest challenges facing the healthcare industry today is the need for quality, high-skilled talent, especially physicians and nurses. Another challenge is the lack of advancement opportunities and excessive job stress which have led to high turnover in the field. A recent study by VHA, the national healthcare network, cited that hospitals with lower turnover experienced a lower adjusted mortality index than those with turnover rates of more than 12%. The same research indicated that length of stay coincided with employee turnover. The lower the turnover, the lower the hospital stay-yielding many benefits in clinical quality and financial results. In a 2010 HealthLeaders Media Survey, CEOs listed quality/patient safety, physician/nurse recruitment and retention, and employee satisfaction/development as their top organizational priorities for the next three years. Additional results include:
It is critical for healthcare organizations to create a work environment focused on strong job/department fit, as well as improved retention and employee satisfaction in order to deliver the highest quality patient care.
Behavioral or personality assessments help companies realize the full potential of their staff by offering an understanding of what motivates their people. As practical, reliable indicators of workplace behavior, validated assessments are regularly used to:
n Improve hiring/selectionn Enable more successful job placementn Further develop existing employeesn Reduce turnovern Enhance listening and communication skills

The information provided by assessments is used to create strong job alignment, understand how to overcome differences in work styles and enhance team performance by having people in place who complement each other. Assessments help identify employees work and learning styles, giving managers the data to understand the drives and behaviors of their key employees and how to capitalize on their individual strengths for top productivity and morale. Used in a healthcare setting, behavioral assessments can help with the strategic alignment of the business – by placing administrators, professionals, technicians and aides into positions that naturally reward their needs, both the organization and its patients will benefit.
The Predictive Index® (PI®), a behavioral assessment tool developed by PI Worldwide®, offers a unique understanding of the individual needs and drives that impact people’s performance. The Predictive Index is supported by more than 450 validity studies.
Predictive index in Practice
Three PI Worldwide healthcare client case studies are highlighted below. The clients utilize the insight provided by PI to: identify high potential talent for strong job fit, improve team performance, retain their most- skilled talent and foster better communication within their organizations.
MBK senior living – Job alignment and team PerformanceA leader in the assisted living industry, MBK Senior Living has been named one of the “Best Places to Work in Healthcare in 2009” by Modern Healthcare Magazine. This designation validates their progress in creating a workplace of truly committed employees dedicated to serving their clients.
Terry Howard, CEO, explains the role of the Predictive Index (PI) in their workplace: “It’s imperative for my organization to have the right people in the right jobs. Using PI, we can ensure that employees are aligned with a job that best fits their behavioral style. Our company’s turnover, since implementing PI, has gone from 70% to 39%, which is exceptional for our industry.”
PI is a critical tool in understanding individual work styles, as well as building and coaching teams to work effectively with each other. Managers at MBK use PI to examine their team’s PI profiles to identify the different communication styles that may complement or conflict with each other. This insight builds more effective teams and leads to greater job satisfaction and retention.

genesis rehabilitation services – creating strong Job Fit to leverage critical roles
Genesis Rehabilitation Services, a division of Genesis Healthcare, is one of the largest long-term care rehabilitation organizations in the United States. With $500 million in revenue, Genesis Rehab employs 8,000 therapists and serves more than 850 locations in 23 states, including nursing centers, assisted living facilities, hospitals, home health companies and outpatient clinics. Genesis is both patient-centered and employee-focused, with a commitment to clinical excellence and staff development.

The company knew the impact that having the right people in the right jobs would have on their productivity and team performance. To stabilize its workforce, Genesis Rehab applied the insight it gained from the Predictive Index (PI) to ensure employees were aligned with job opportunities that best fit their behavioral style. For example, the role of therapist is the most critical for client care and one of the most difficult to staff and retain properly. Genesis implemented PI to develop a more selective screening process by profiling their top performers and using that insight for better selection, identifying high potential talent and uncovering those candidates who would be a good fit for the work culture. Managers were able to gain a better understanding of the motivations and drives of the therapist and used the information for growing and retaining the company’s workforce as well as developing cohesive and effective work teams.
“The company’s turnover rate is lower than ever, having dropped from 32% to 8% since PI’s implementation. We want to do the utmost to keep our employees engaged and motivated in their roles by creating a strong corporate culture that emphasizes mutual respect and open communication.” Dan Hirschfeld, CEO

Bloomington Hospital – effective communication improves Performance and Motivation
Bloomington Hospital provides comprehensive, high quality, cost—effective and caring services to the people of south central Indiana. With over 3,000 employees supporting dozens of outpatient locations, two hospitals and five physician practices- the foundation of their success is their people.
The hospital implemented the Predictive Index (PI) to help with several initiatives including job fit, team building and performance. Bruce Wade, Director of HR shares an example of PI’s impact on the hospital’s management team:
“The biggest paradigm shift that I’ve found in using the Predictive Index with managers is they have to adjust their management style to motivate their staff. The adjustment is especially difficult for new managers. They realize that they can’t motivate their people by having one mode in which to operate on a daily basis. They have to adjust their behavior given the different individual work styles.”
PI is also the foundation to resolve conflicts with team members. Managers share the PIs of co-workers who may develop a conflict due to their communication or work style. The insight from the PIs helps the individuals better understand and respect their differences, allowing for effective dialog and strategies to adjust their behavior to create a positive work environment.

PI Worldwide White Paper: Measuring Behavior to Improve Sales Performance
tHe science oF tHe Predictive index
PI Worldwide remains dedicated to conducting research that ensures that the Predictive Index (PI) is work-related, free of bias, valid and reliable. Clients around the world have confidence in the Predictive Index not only because of its repeatable accuracy, but also for its scientific and research-based foundation:
PI Worldwide has an extensive library of over 450 job validity studies covering multiple jobs, industries and countries which document the instrument’s validity and usefulness in the business world. The objectives of the studies are:
1. To determine the Factors (personality traits) measured by the Predictive Index that relate most significantly to higher and lower levels of job performance.
2. To develop evidence of the validity of the Predictive Index in this job classification using the criterion-related validation procedures prescribed for this purpose by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) guidelines.
The Predictive Index is made up of four primary and two resultant factors:
1. Factor A - DOMINANCE: The degree to which an individual seeks to control his or her environment. Individuals who score high on this dimension are independent, assertive and self-confident. Individuals who score low on this dimension are agreeable, cooperative and accommodating.
2. Factor B - EXTRAVERSION: The degree to which an individual seeks social interaction with other people. Individuals who score high on this dimension are outgoing, persuasive and socially-poised. Individuals who score low on this dimension are serious, introspective and task-oriented.
3. Factor C - PATIENCE: The degree to which an individual seeks consistency and stability in his or her environment. Individuals who score high on this dimension are patient, consistent and deliberate. Individuals who score low on this dimension are fast-paced, urgent and intense.
4. Factor D - FORMALITY: The degree to which an individual seeks to conform to formal rules and structure. Individuals who score high on this dimension are organized, precise and self-disciplined. Individuals who score low on this dimension are informal, casual and uninhibited.
5. Factor M is a measure of a person’s stamina.6. Factor E measures the extent to which the individual is either subjective
or objective in his or her judgments and decision-making.
These factors are investigated within the context of three elements: the Self, the Self-Concept, and the Synthesis.
The Self is a measure of an individual’s basic pattern of drives and behavior—a measure of those drives that are most motivating and those behaviors that are most natural for that individual.
A ccording to a recent Aberdeen Group Study
“the top pressure driving talent management efforts in healthcare is the overall shortfall in qualified candidates leading to unacceptable job vacancy rates−cited by 64% of respondents.”
Source: Aberdeen Group, Oct. 2009. (Talent Management in Healthcare)

PI Worldwide White Paper: Measuring Behavior to Improve Sales Performance
The Self-Concept measures the environmental expectations or demands that a person feels, which may or may not fit with his or her natural tendencies.
The Synthesis, a mathematical combination of the Self and Self-Concept scores, is designed to measure how that person is actually behaving in the current environment.
The Predictive Index was developed and validated in compliance with Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) Guidelines, as well as the professional standards established by the American Psychological Association (APA) and the Society of Industrial & Organizational Psychology (SIOP).
Predictive index in Practice For HealtHcare
Below are the findings of two recent healthcare validity studies conducted by Todd Harris, Ph.D., Director of Research for PI Worldwide.
This Healthcare client is a leading provider of home health nursing, rehabilitation and personal care services. This statistical analysis is based upon Predictive Index patterns and performance information supplied by the client company for 66 sales representatives.
study number 1:Findings:Statistically significant connections between the Predictive Index and each of the four sales representative job performance metrics were observed:
n PI and Retention: Longer tenure in the sales representative position for this company was associated with comparably higher D Factors (more precision, caution and attention to detail), comparably lower M Factors and comparably higher E Factors (a more objective approach to infor-mation-processing/decision making). This study indicated that longer-tenured sales representatives actually had comparably lower M Scores.
n PI and Admissions Percentage: Sales representatives with superior ad-missions percentage performance had higher Self D Factors and higher Self C Factors, although these C Factors tended to still be somewhat lower than the Norm.
n PI and Percentage of Months Meeting Sales Budget Expectations: Top-performers as measured by this particular metric primarily had lower Self B Factors, (a more analytical, task-oriented and matter-of-fact style). A comparably higher Self C Factor was also beneficial for performance on this metric.
n PI and Percentage of Months Meeting Sales Budget Targets: The PI-job performance trends observed for this metric were lower B and higher D Factors. In addition to these findings, a comparably higher E Factor (more objective) and comparably lower A Factor (more team-oriented) were also critical drivers of better job performance.

PI Worldwide White Paper: Measuring Behavior to Improve Sales Performance
study number 2:This healthcare client is a cooperative whose members are community blood centers across the U.S. The statistical analysis is based upon Predictive Index patterns and performance information supplied by the client company for 420 Phlebotomists.
research question: Do phlebotomists with certain Predictive Index patterns experience fewer donor reactions? answer: Yes
Findings:In a sample of 420 Phlebotomists taken from various locations, statistical testing indicated that compared to their peers, phlebotomists with fewer donor reactions had:
n Lower C Factors: Comparably faster work-pace, more comfortable with multi-tasking.
nNarrower C>A Factor Spreads: Comparably more pro-active.
nLower D Factors: Comparably less formal and more flexible.
nHigher B Factors: Comparably more extroverted and socially-oriented.
nNote that of these PI Factors, the C Factor had the single largest impact on donor reaction rates.
nThis testing revealed that approximately 20% of the variability in phlebotomist job performance as measured by donor reactions is attributable to his or her Predictive Index pattern.
Average PI Pattern: Top 50 Venipunctures

In summary, the Predictive Index is a proven scientific instrument to predict performance levels based on natural behavioral drives and motivations of an individual in relation to a specific job. It has proven to be a valuable tool in healthcare organizations around the world, ranging from hospitals, long-term care, and assisted living facilities to hospice and rehabilitative services.

Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre (TBHSC) is an acute care teaching hospital serving people in Northwestern Ontario,Canada. With 1200 non-medical employees, 2500 in total, this state-of-the-art facility enjoys a stable workforce and very low turnover.Don Halpert joined the executive team in 1999 as the Chief Human Resources Officer.
Don learned that hiring decisions for management positions were based on professional credentials and the interview process ratherthan personal attributes, which are a greater indicator of success in management positions.
With several bad hires behind them, Don presented to the senior team another data point option - the use of a behavioral assessmenttool to provide insight into the motivations and drives of individual to ensure a better cultural and job fit. Don shared his 20+ yearsexperience utilizing the assessment tool Predictive Index® (PI®) and its value not only for hiring but for employee and leadershipdevelopment. Don quickly gained executive support that, today, has cascaded throughout the organization. The Predictive Index isactively used at the management level to hire the right managers and at the operational level to develop more effective teams.
SelectionFirst steps in the Predictive Index (PI) process were for Don and his team to use the PRO, which defines the requirements of the jobin PI behavioral terms. The new process included the top candidates being given the PI prior to the final interview for managementroles, and provided their results during the interview. This insight allowed Thunder Bay to uncover the fits and gaps between the joband the candidate and allowed for the development of probing interview questions and dialog to uncover the ability of the candidate toactually do the job and provide necessary leadership.
Team BuildingIt did not take long for the senior executives to realize the value of PI beyond hiring. The Predictive Index became part of thefoundation for Thunder Bay’s “GO TEAM” initiative, which stands for “Great Organizational Teamwork”. This multi-step processincludes the individual team members taking the Predictive Index survey and their results provided on a one-to-one basis. The nextstep involves the facilitator taking it to the team level by sharing how specific PI defined behaviors impact team communication,dynamics, work styles, pace of work and more. This provides a clear picture to the individuals and the manager on how to improveteam effectiveness by adjusting their own personal communication style for better performance, teamwork, and morale. Managerscontinued their use of PI beyond “GO TEAM” to coach their people for improved individual and team success.
Thunder Bay conducts a staff satisfaction survey every two years. In light of today’s economy, where companies are strugglingfinancially and employees are more and more stressed out at work, these results are amazing. Highlights include “Communication”scores improving by over 18% over the 2007 scores and Teamworkimproving by 13.4% over a flat rating from the prior evaluation. Donattributes the improved scores to the programs such as “GO Team,”better job fit and team effectiveness-with PI playing a key role.
“Our staff satisfaction scores have improved largely because ofimproved leadership, recognition programs and enhancedcommunications.” Don credits PI with assisting in these changes.
Succession PlanningTwenty percent of Thunder Bay’s managers will be retiring over thenext 5 years, with an average of over 20 years experience each atThunder Bay. In early 2010, under the direction of Don Halpert,Thunder Bay has developed a Leadership Development program,including succession planning. The process begins with developingthe core competencies for each of these critical jobs then using thePredictive Index process to identify critical behavioral traits followedby key input from the entire management team. This has produced ahigh level of confidence within the management team in looking ahead to the future of Thunder Bay.
Don says, “Our Leadership Development will be the key to our success in the years to come. Using tools such as PI will assist in givingfocus as to where to put our limited resources and, on an individual level, how to identify development potential.”

Blood Centers of America, Inc., (BCA) is a cooperative whose members are community blood centers located across the U.S. BCA
provides thirty percent of the nation's transfusion requirements, with a primary focus on improving the operations and business
activities of their blood center network.
The Challenge: Heather Marreel is the Director of Recruitment for
Siouxland Community Blood Bank in the mid-west region. The
Blood Bank has 150 employees, and Heather manages a group of
seven recruiters who enlist blood donors. She also manages a tele-
recruitment team, and oversees fundraising, grant writing and
marketing efforts. Heather’s background was in sales prior to joining
the blood bank. As a seasoned sales professional, she viewed her new role as a sales position, which, until her arrival, had been
viewed as a marketing function. Heather explains, “Our recruiters have to prospect for new business to achieve their annual goal,
and reach a certain percentage of that goal each month. We measure projection accuracy month to month, in the same way that
sales quotas are tracked.” Heather delivered the recruiter sales concept to her management team. She met with some initial
pushback, but was able to convince the team that this was the right approach. The next critical step in the process for Heather was
to find a way to introduce a formal sales training program.
Heather began sales training discussions with her CEO in February of 2008. Within a few months, PI Consultant Deb Scott from
P.I. Midwest, a PI Worldwide® member firm introduced their sales development solutions: Selling Skills Assessment Tool™
(SSAT) , Customer-Focused Selling™ (CFS), and the Predictive Index® (PI®), in a presentation to the blood bank’s CEO and senior
management team. “I jumped at the opportunity to use these tools with my team,” states Heather. “Comprehensive sales training
is imperative to the recruiter’s long-term success.”
The Process: Heather’s team focused on PI Worldwide’s sales solutions, completing the SSAT and CFS. The results of the
SSAT identified selling strengths and areas for improvement at the individual and team level. Using this insight, the recruiters
attended CFS consultative sales training which provided knowledge and tools for improved sales performance. “The
investigate and confirm components of the sales training process were the weakest areas for our organization, explains
Heather. Volunteer coordinators who assist with blood drives had never been asked probing questions before. Now they’re
more open with recruiters, and willing to share a level of information that has resulted in many new donor opportunities.
The senior management team saw the Predictive Index as a strategic solution to ensure strong job fit for specialized positions
in the blood collection and lab departments. Both the Director of Blood Collections and Lab use PI and PRO, the PI
companion tool that profiles the behavioral requirements of the job, to get the insight they need to make strong hiring
decisions. PI ensures the right job fit by identifying the behavioral traits for optimal job performance. “We match an
applicant’s PI to the job profile. If there is a strong fit, we will use this insight to tailor our interview questions. The Predictive
Index has been very good at predicting our lab personnel requirements which are very task and detail oriented with diligence,
operational or specialist patterns,” explains Anjeanette Barto, Director of Blood Collections.

“Since CFS, the team has a new foundconfidence, and they’re prospecting moreand closing new business moresuccessfully than ever before.”
Heather MarreelDirector of Recruitment
The Results: The recruitment team has recently uncovered many new sales leads and opportunities - from leveraging speaking
engagements with new service groups to increasing their visibility at health fairs, symposiums, and other community based
activities. Prior to CFS, recruiters seldom met with their clients ‘in person’. They now meet regularly with existing clients to help
maintain the relationship, and gain referrals for new business.
Before attending Customer-Focused Selling, a recruiter’s monthly projection accuracy (units of blood donated per month) ranged
from 70 – 85%. After CFS training, recruiter projection accuracy increased 15 to 20%. According to Heather, this reflects a
tremendous increase. “Since CFS, the team has a new found confidence, and they’re prospecting more and closing new business
more successfully than ever before.”
PI has played an equally important role in the development of the Heather’s team. She shares, “Individuals are motivated and
morale is higher than ever, and it’s invigorating to see how well each team member works together.” Heather has worked
extensively to integrate all facets of the CFS training into the recruiter role to ensure long-term success. She explains, “At an
individual and group level, the methods and techniques of CFS are applied to the team’s operation. We conduct weekly team
sessions to reinforce CFS methodology on an ongoing basis. The results have been extremely positive.” Recruiters have not only
achieved consistently higher projections since the CFS training, but they have been able to sustain this improved performance.
Heather explains, “Now they know the right questions to ask and how to confirm next steps to move new business forward which
has greatly improved the team’s level of success.”
