The Apollo Profile is based on well-known concepts and practices aligned to the modern workplace. The Apollo Profile incorporates world wide research, and the instrument has undergone validation and reliability testing, demonstrating high levels of stability/reliability of dimension scores, and providing differential (validated) workplace profiles.
The construction of The Apollo Profile recognises that human beings are complex and unique. Different people are suited to different activities. Nobody is suited to, or interested in all activities. People have preferences, which influence what they want to do, and how they carry out those interests. These interests relate also to career choices and in turn to potential suitability for and success in different career paths.
The Apollo Profile is intended to be used as a guide for individuals to maximise their career potential. Thus human resources professionals and managers also have available a tool that can provide information to assist them in their people management and development tasks.
Just as human beings are different, so too are organisations. Organisation cultures are different. The Apollo Profile can help individuals confirm their fit to the organisation culture, and can also help provide section or department profiles which can be related to current productivity, teams, morale, and training needs, and can contribute to discussion of issues in strategic planning.
In particular, The Apollo Profile provides diagnostic and descriptive comments regarding possible training needs and ways to enhance career performance. Detailed advice can be obtained from accredited interpreters or career counsellors if desired.
