The field of workplace assessment is at a critical stage in its evolution. The intersection of new technologies, globalization, and market shifts among assessment providers has created dramatic opportunities for the field along with some significant challenges. Artificial intelligence (AI) and other technological advances have altered what is possible in talent acquisition. As a new generation of technology-driven applications comes of age, a host of new issues and opportunities have emerged that require assessment professionals to respond with an informed perspective that balances return-on-investment priorities with appropriate professional and scientific rigor. In response to this context, this volume focuses on trends and innovations in talent assessment, framing practical solutions for managing the disruption in assessment while incorporating new insights and technologies into organizational assessment programs. Featuring chapters from consultants and technologists pushing the edges of what's possible with new tools, to professionals putting them into practice, and attorneys who focus on minimizing risk, this volume examines these disruptive forces from all sides. The chapters are grouped into four sections that cover (1) advances in the foundational science of assessment, (2) technology-related innovations, (3) updates to regulations, principles, and standards, and (4) assessment for development. Including a variety of case studies that describe talent assessment in action and how organizations of varying sizes develop and implement assessment programs, this book is ideal for practitioners and academics in the field.

As a discipline, industrial-organizational (I-O) psychology has long embraced its role as both a science and a practice; the field is a personification of the scientist-practitioner model. However, the translation of new science into accepted practice can be challenging, and the field often wrestles with the best way to motivate a rich dialogue across the breadth of the field, from science to practice. The editors of this book believe that case studies are an underutilized resource for enriching this dialogue. In this volume are assembled 20 cases that show how I-O psychologists created programs backed by theory and research to address real-world issues in organizations. The cases are diverse and cover several areas of this discipline: how we select people to fill jobs, develop leaders, and facilitate inclusion and belongingness; as well as cases that show how technology is being deployed in our work, and how we can promote safe and healthy workplaces. This book is an important tool in educating future I-O psychologists in the application of science in our practice. It is also a useful guide for practitioners, providing insight into how various interventions have been implemented successfully and the lessons that were learned along the way. Throughout the book, the underlying premise is that science and practice are interdependent parts of a cycle, where each piece informs the other - a cycle that, when balanced, leads to more effective organizational programs and triggers new questions to be answered by our research.
