    Klaus Olsen, CEO JobMatch Sweden
    This color theory is basically like a horoscope. In organizations and companies, it’s been used long before the book came out. […] By investing money in it, you are more inclined to believe that it will work. But that someone in a group turns out to be ‘red’ according to a personality test is most likely not the actual problem.
    Magnus Lindwall, professor of psychology at the University of Gothenburg, Sweden
    JobMatch Talent is quality audited and certified by DNV-GL, a quality stamp that weighs heavily in the public sector. The tool is also easy to use and provides educational and easy-to-interpret results reports. These are two major reasons why many municipalities and county administrative boards use JobMatch Talent.
    Klaus Olsen, CEO JobMatch Sweden
    Our existing customers already know that the test works, and now we also have the DNV-GL as a seal of quality, which clearly shows that our service is an effective tool for companies; for example in the recruitment process.
    Klaus Olsen, MD of Jobmatch Sweden AB
    Older managers develop their employees better, while younger managers focus more on achieving their own goals and demonstrating that they are ahead of the competition.
    Trevor Archer, Professor of Psychology at Gothenburg University
    JobMatch Talent provides increased insight and awareness of important leadership characteristics, such as decision-making ability, concentration and thoroughness. We use this tool to provide us with an improved basis for our decisions on which candidates are suitable for the leadership programme and eventually for management positions in SCB.

    In September, the book Surrounded by Bad Bosses, the sequel to the bestsellers Surrounded by Idiots and Surrounded by Psychopaths, was released. The books are based on the DISC model, which assumes that all personalities can be placed in one of four color compartments and is used by both companies and authorities to assess jobseekers.  “Both myself and many of my colleagues in the psychology research field are of the firm opinion that the DISC model is as accurate as a horoscope and that it leads to incorrect assessments and recruitments.
