Human Factors International
was established by
Dr. Adrian Atkinson in 1983. Over the past 20 years the company has helped many clients to select and develop their most important asset, their people. Our distinctive competency is a deep and extensive knowledge of psychology coupled with experienced understanding of the business environment. This allows our team of consultants to offer expertise at all stages of the people process whether it be designing a graduate assessment centre or re-organising the entire company structure and corporate goals.
It is often said that a business is only as good as its people. The wrong people in the wrong job can create difficulties of communication, hampering or bringing to a standstill the decision-making process. A change in organisational structure or areas of responsibility can reveal unsuspected abilities or leave a competent manager floundering.
At every level, it is an understanding of the human factor which is fundamental. It is not only a matter of recruiting or selecting the right people, it is also a question of coaching and developing these people, and of creating systems and structures within which they can function efficiently and effectively.
Human Factors’ capability in people assessment and development is at the heart of our business. We are expert at executive assessment, leadership development, organisational culture and main board competencies. This is supported by a rare combination of theoretical knowledge and experience gained through working with global companies and multicultural groups.
Our team of consultants operates at every level of the client company - monitoring, assessing, training and coaching, to integrate a team which is capable of improving and developing individual and corporate performance. We combine a deep and extensive knowledge of human potential with a focus on business strategy, the business environment and the business process.
