Management Test

Prepare for your Management Test

Competences such as Coaching and Leading staff and teams are at the heart of the matter, alongside Enterprise, Strategy and Vision, and Planning and Organisation. You can practise various component parts, because a management test consists of various sections.

Questionnaires

Capacity tests: As a manager, you are expected to be blessed with higher-than-average intelligence. This link offers you insight as to how best to prepare for capability assessments.

Personality tests: Personality is an important character trait for managers. You must be sufficiently stable, social and management savvy. The Quality of Work test is an example of the psychological test. This provides insight into character traits that are relevant for management and is based on the Big Five theory.

Motivational drives: Motivational drives are another component part of Management Tests. They determine to a large degree what you are looking for in your career. Invest five minutes to gain insight into your most important motivational drives.

Roleplay

Roleplay is often crucial in demonstrating your management competences. The need may arise to reprimand a colleague or manage a conflict. These are often the most difficult situations. Act as you would in a real-life situation. The biggest mistake you can make is not taking the roleplay actor seriously; act as if this is a real situation. Be yourself, be flexible and effective, and give it what you’ve got! You can practise by roleplaying this kind of discussion with a colleague.
