Value Fit

The Value Fit assesses the match between organisational values and the personal values of candidates. The methodology is based on Schwartz’s value model (1992).

Waarden die gescoord worden :

  • Performance & Recognition: personal success at work, with skills and achievements being recognised within the
    organisation
  • Status & Leadership: social status and prestige in the workplace, which manifest themselves in leadership roles
    and influence
  • Colleagueship: committing to the needs of people with whom one regularly works and building harmonious and
    supportive working relationships
  • Equality & Inclusion: equality, respect, and protection against discrimination for all members of the organisation;
    socially responsible policies
  • Stability & Security: safety, stability, well-being and risk avoidance in the work and organisational setting
  • Tradition: preserving, respecting and promoting the organisation’s traditions, culture and customs
  • Conformity: meeting and adapting to management’s expectations and standards, setting aside personal
    preferences to maintain organisational order
  • Autonomy: independent thinking and decision-making, creativity and exploration at work; freedom to choose
    how one does their job
  • Variety & Challenge: variation, seeking out new impetus and challenges in work situations and contexts
  • Job Satisfaction & Personal Interests: job satisfaction and balance between work and recreational and leisure
    interests
  • Predictor of retention – values fit is a strong indicator of retention, engagement and well-being.
  • Culture and team fit – increases the likelihood of sustainable matches, smoother onboarding and better collaboration.
  • Clear, shared language – makes values explicit and easier to discuss in both selection and HR processes.
  • Fair & transparent – there is no “right or wrong”; it is about finding a good fit.

By including the Value Fit, you can identify early in the process where there is a strong values match (and where there isn’t) something that often remains invisible during interviews.

The report provides an overview of what values are, how they can be interpreted, and why you may want to assess them. It also takes a closer look at the candidate’s results and their fit with the organisation, using rich visuals and tailored feedback texts.

You get:

  • What are values and why measure them
  • Candidate results – The values hierarchy shows which values carry more weight than others in a candidate’s choices and behaviour. Each value includes an explanation of the score.
  • Overall Value Fit* – a concise overview of the degree of fit.
  • Person–Organisation Fit per value* – a visual representation of the proximity or distance between the organisation and the candidate for each value.
  • Explanation of Person–Organisation Fit* – when is there a good fit, and what does this mean for the candidate and the organisation?

*This section is optional in the report. This information is only shown when your organisation has completed the Value Fit organisational survey. The results of that survey are then used as an internal benchmark in the report.

No single test can perfectly predict how someone will perform in a job. Combining assessments intelligently increases incremental validity.

Recommended combination with the Value Fit:

  • Personality test (MAPS)
    → provides insight into stable behavioural preferences (e.g. orderliness, flexibility, stress response).
    → complements values (why) with behaviour (how).
  • SJT (Situational Judgement Test)
    → assesses decision-making and judgement in context.
    → shows how someone makes choices in dilemmas where values come into play.
  • Reasoning test (abstract or verbal)
    → measures cognitive ability, such as handling complexity and learning speed.
    → completes the overall picture without unnecessary overlap.

  • In selection
    Use the Value Fit to assess whether a candidate’s values align with your organisation’s culture. This helps identify potential mismatches early and increases the likelihood of sustainable hiring, motivation and retention.

  • In team development
    Compare individual profiles with the values of the team or department. This highlights where strengths lie and where tensions may arise, helping to strengthen complementarity and collaboration.

  • In organisational development
    Use the Value Fit as a mirror: to what extent are your desired core values truly reflected within the organisation? By combining individual and group results, you gain valuable input to shape your culture and HR policies more effectively.

Personality (MAPS)

What does the MAPS (Mapwave’s Appreciative Personality Survey) measure?

In the MAPS, we map professional personality using the Big Five model, one of the most scientifically validated models in psychology.

The five main dimensions are:

  1. Emotional stability – how resilient or sensitive you react to stress or setbacks.
  2. Extraversion – how social, energetic, or reserved you are.
  3. Conscientiousness – how structured, orderly, or flexible you work.
  4. Altruism – how much you consider others versus your own interests.
  5. Openness – how curious and innovation-oriented you are versus conservative.

Why include the MAPS in your test package?

The MAPS provides insight into stable behavioral preferences and the way someone tends to react in various situations. It helps you assess whether someone will fit the job context, team, and organizational culture.

Personality doesn’t tell everything about performance, but is often decisive for long-term behavior such as dealing with stress, collaboration or independent functioning, handling change or feedback, etc. This adds unique predictive value on top of, for example, a reasoning test or situational judgment test.

All questions in the test are specifically formulated for the professional context, making the test feel highly relevant and recognizable to candidates.

About the report

The report displays results across the 5 personality dimensions. Each dimension is further divided into subdimensions, allowing the profile to show much nuance.

For each subdimension, you receive a score, feedback text, and a completed core quadrant by Ofman:

  • Quality – a natural strength in your personality
  • Pitfall – the risk that this quality is used too strongly, causing it to overshoot.
  • Allergy – behavior in others that can strongly irritate you, often the opposite of your quality.
  • Challenge – the behavior you can develop to keep your quality in balance and avoid your pitfall.

This way, you don’t get a “right-wrong” story, but a nuanced, practical, and development-oriented view of the personality profile. This makes the report extremely suitable for recruiters as preparation for selection interviews. Additionally, this is naturally also suitable for self-reflection, coaching, and development conversations.

The results are displayed relative to a representative norm group, so you can put your scores in perspective. Response tendencies are also provided so you get an indication of the social desirability with which a candidate responded.

Recommended combinations with other tests

No single test perfectly predicts on its own how someone will function in a job. What you can do is smartly combine tests that each measure something different — so that you gather as much relevant information as possible, without unnecessary overlap or test fatigue.

This increases incremental validity: the added value of a test on top of the others.

Recommended combination with a personality questionnaire:

  • Reasoning test
    → measures cognitive abilities, such as abstract reasoning and learning capacity.
    → indicates what someone can handle in terms of complexity and pace.
  • Situational judgment test (SJT)
    → simulates concrete work situations and measures practical decision-making.
    → indicates how someone tends to act in typical job situations.

Through these combinations, you get a multi-layered and reliable overall picture: from capabilities to behavioral preferences to contextual behavior.

Application

The MAPS personality questionnaire is broadly applicable within selection and development.

Specifically, you can use it for:

  • Selection – get an objective and nuanced view of someone’s personality and behavioral preferences. This allows you to assess whether someone aligns with the role and organizational context, and adds reliable data points alongside interviews or CVs.
  • Self-insight – the connection with Ofman’s core quadrants makes strengths, pitfalls, challenges, and allergies concretely visible. Candidates or employees recognize themselves better and understand how their behavior is experienced by others.
  • Coaching and development – the insights form a powerful foundation for coaching trajectories and development plans. It clarifies where growth opportunities lie and how someone can more effectively deal with their own pitfalls and challenges.

This way, you turn selection and development from guesswork into a substantiated process that leads to targeted growth.

SJT Social Skills

The SJT Social Skills measures how someone interacts with others in work situations: collaborating, communicating, and acting customer-oriented. Candidates are presented with 12 situations, each with five possible responses. Each response must be evaluated individually for appropriateness.

The test evaluates six core competencies:

  • Task-oriented collaboration – practical cooperation, making clear agreements, and sharing knowledge
  • People-oriented collaboration – considering others, constructively handling disagreements
  • Assertiveness – forming your own opinion and expressing it respectfully
  • Customer orientation – seeking solutions and appropriately handling challenging customer situations
  • Reliability – acting consistently and with integrity when dealing with information and people
  • Flexibility – handling changes and continuing to work efficiently

Social skills are decisive in virtually every job. They determine how well someone can:

  • collaborate within a team
  • interact with customers or external parties
  • communicate in challenging situations
  • adapt flexibly to changing circumstances

This SJT provides a realistic view of how someone makes choices in social interactions and shows whether those choices contribute to constructive collaboration, customer orientation, and reliability. This makes the test a valuable complement to personality tests and cognitive tests.

The report provides standardized scores (stanine 1–9) per competency, each with:

  • Feedback text – description of the current level
  • Development advice – concrete tips to strengthen the skill
  • Graphical score display – a visual overview of the results

This makes the report useful not only for selection, but also for coaching and development conversations.

The six competencies that are reported separately are:

  1. Task-oriented collaboration
  2. People-oriented collaboration
  3. Assertiveness
  4. Customer orientation
  5. Reliability
  6. Flexibility

No single test perfectly predicts how someone will function in a job. What you can do is smartly combine tests that each measure something different — so you gather as much relevant information as possible, without overlap or test fatigue. This increases the incremental validity: the added value of a test on top of the others.

Recommended combination with the SJT Social Skills:

  • Personality test (MAPS)
    → provides insight into stable behavioral preferences such as collaboration, empathy, and flexibility.
    → helps explain why someone makes certain choices in social situations.
  • Reasoning test (abstract, verbal, or numerical)
    → measures cognitive capacity: logical, verbal, and/or numerical thinking.
    → indicates what someone can handle in terms of complexity and learning ability.

Together, these tests provide a complete picture: from social skills to personality and cognitive strengths.

  • Selection: the test provides objective insight into how candidates behave in social situations. You get a reliable picture of their ability to collaborate, flexibility, reliability, customer-friendliness, and assertiveness. This improves the quality of your hires and reduces the risk of mismatches.
  • Learning & development: the test can serve as a baseline measurement at the start of training or education. You gain insight into the strengths and development points of participants and can tailor the learning path accordingly. With a later measurement, you can also see what progress has been made.

Organizational Survey

Our organizational survey systematically collects feedback from employees about their work experience and the organization as a whole. The survey provides insights into crucial topics such as:

  • Satisfaction
  • Engagement
  • Well-being
  • Motivation
  • Leadership
  • Change readiness
  • Organizational culture

The questionnaire is based on scientific evidence and grounded in the Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) model. This model explains how job resources and job demands together influence employee engagement, motivation, and well-being.

Each survey is tailored to your organization’s context and challenges. This gives you a clear view of the current situation as well as concrete starting points for targeted improvements.

A well-executed organizational survey provides insights that you would otherwise not discover or discover too late.

With our surveys you get:

  • Complete picture – well-founded insight into strengths and improvement areas within teams and organization-wide
  • Predictive analyses – we not only show what is happening today, but also demonstrate the impact of actions on themes such as engagement, well-being, and motivation
  • Integration with other business data – such as turnover, absenteeism, revenue, customer satisfaction, or KPIs, for deeper explanations and substantiated decisions
  • Targeted improvement actions – through clarity on which interventions will have the greatest impact
  • Compliance with legal obligations – Our survey meets the requirements of Belgian well-being legislation (including psychosocial risk analysis). This way you are immediately compliant with the law and simultaneously gain valuable development insights.

Because the survey can be fully customized, this instrument can be used for various purposes: retention, strategic HRM, culture change or well-being policy.

The report offers more than just a snapshot: it combines in-depth descriptive and predictive analyses, with statistical significance always at the core.

There are various options:

  • Overview by theme and target group – results broken down by department or relevant group.
  • Benchmarking – comparison with internal or external references.
  • Concrete recommendations – targeted advice to set up improvement actions.
  • Interactive report in Power BI – dynamic visuals that allow you to filter and zoom in
  • Classic written report – clear graphs, interpretation, and recommendations in an organized format.

This way you not only gain insight into what is happening, but also into why it is happening and what you can do about it.

An organizational survey and a 360° feedback survey complement each other well because they offer two different levels of insight:

  • The organizational survey provides a broad picture of the work experience in the organization (engagement, well-being, culture, leadership, …).

  • The 360° feedback focuses on individual performance and leadership behavior, viewed from different perspectives.

By combining them, you get both a macro-view of the organization and a micro-view of individual performance. This helps to:

  • link organization-wide challenges to development needs of managers or teams,

  • better target leadership programs and training,

  • and plan actions that strengthen both organizational culture and individual competencies.

The organizational survey is a powerful instrument for organizational development. You use it to understand where your organization stands today, to provide direction for change, and to measure the effect of your efforts.

Typical applications are:

  • Starting point of a change process – map strengths and improvement opportunities and create support.
  • Annual or periodic scan – track the evolution of engagement, well-being, leadership, and more.
  • Evaluation of interventions – measure whether HR, culture, or well-being programs have the desired effect.
  • Targeted team development – focus on specific departments to see their unique challenges and opportunities.
  • Make substantiated organizational decisions

This way you effortlessly translate insights into targeted actions and lasting improvement.

360° Feedback

With our 360° feedback survey, you get a nuanced picture of someone’s performance from different perspectives: supervisor(s), colleagues, direct reports, internal customers, project members, and the person themselves.

You can start immediately with our standard 360°. This allows you to collect feedback on the following leadership competencies: strategy and vision, risk-aware analysis and decision-making, change orientation, results orientation, people orientation, leadership, networking and customer focus, collaboration, personal development capacity, and integrity.

Do you have a clear leadership vision within your organization? Then we create a survey based on our validated competency library. This way, we select precisely those competencies that are relevant to your organization and the purpose of the survey.

A 360° feedback provides insight from multiple perspectives. By combining feedback from different levels and roles in the organization, you get:

  • More complete picture – insight into strengths and development areas from multiple angles
  • Better development conversations – concrete and nuanced starting point for coaching or performance discussions
  • Greater self-awareness – reflection of self-image with external perceptions
  • Stronger development actions – thanks to concretely formulated improvement points and a ready-to-use action plan template

Because you can fully align the survey with your own competency model and context, this instrument is equally suitable for talent development, leadership development as well as for culture and behavior programs.

The report is clear, comprehensive, and action-oriented, with:

  • Global overview – spider web with average scores per competency
  • Benchmark – comparison with the average scores of other participants who simultaneously go through the same process
  • Scores per competency
  • Scores per behavioral indicator
  • Comparison self-image vs. others – insight into similarities and differences
  • Strengths & development opportunities – including concrete improvement points
  • Ready-to-use template for reflection action plan – for immediate follow-up in development conversations

Confidentiality is guaranteed: results are only displayed for respondent groups with at least 3 respondents (adjustable to a stricter limit, e.g., 5).

A 360° feedback survey is ideal in combination with:

  • Internal development actions within your organization
    → Use the results of the 360° as input for your leadership program, internal coaching, training, or development programs.
    → This way, insights are directly translated into concrete development steps and lasting behavioral change.

You use the 360° feedback survey within development and HR processes when you need a broad, multi-voiced, and reliable picture.

Specifically, you can use a 360° as:

  • Start of a development or leadership program – map strengths and focus areas clearly to work in a targeted manner immediately.
  • Competency map for training – determine priorities based on real needs.
  • Performance reviews – conduct a concrete conversation with clear observations and follow-up actions based on more than just vague memories.
  • Baseline and follow-up measurement – establish the initial situation and measure again later to objectively evaluate the growth and impact of a program.
