Case Study: Randstad US ensures strong post-merger leadership performance with XBInsight

How to ensure high performance post-merger

Randstad US, a major U.S. staffing provider and subsidiary of Randstad Holding, faced the challenge of integrating Spherion after an acquisition. The company needed a way to evaluate current leaders, align corporate processes, and place the right people into key leadership roles across divisions such as technology, finance and accounting, healthcare, IT, and legal. Randstad US worked with XBInsight and its talent assessment system to support this transition.

XBInsight used assessment data to help identify the best role for each Spherion leader and ensure they were prepared for added responsibilities within Randstad’s culture. The approach proved to be a reliable predictor of performance, helping leaders succeed in their new roles. The results were strong enough that Randstad US expanded use of XBInsight’s assessment system to improve hiring for key positions in its own staffing division.
