Leading the Industry in Research and Data-Driven Insights
At Talent Plus, we don’t simply believe in talent science – we define it. Our research is the foundation of everything we do, and our solutions are rooted in rigorous, data-backed methodologies that deliver measurable success for our client partners. While others rely on intuition, we rely on science.
Our Legacy of Innovation
Decades of groundbreaking research power our approach. It all began with Dr. William E. Hall, a visionary psychologist who asked a transformational question: What would the world be like if everyone did what they were good at and enjoyed?
Dr. Hall’s studies of top performers laid the groundwork for the science we use today. He proved that success isn’t random. It's measurable, predictable and – most importantly – repeatable. From studying leadership potential to revolutionizing the selection process, his work has shaped the way companies identify and nurture talent.
Today, our research team continues that mission, refining and expanding upon Dr. Hall’s principles to create the most advanced talent assessments available.
