Management and Organizational Skills Test (MOST)

The Management and Organization Skills Test (MOST) provides a measure of an individual's knowledge an understanding of how relatively complex organizations function as well as knowledge of the competencies and skills required for success in management and executive positions. The purpose of this instrument is to differentiate between those individuals who possess this knowledge and understanding of general organizational and management principles and those who do not. Possession of this knowledge and understanding has clear implications for job performance in management and executive positions.
MOST has been designed as a measure of individual differences for use in pre-employment screening, as a diagnostic measure to be used in career planning and development, and in assessing the overall knowledge and skill levels of organizations. The results of MOST testing have been shown to be useful in understanding the levels of business knowledge and understanding on both the individual and organizational level in a variety of business and other organizational settings.
MOST consists of 165 multiple-choice items that present a representative array of
organizational and business scenarios and is divided into three separate sections. The first section begins with a series of 25 statements describing a condition, situation, or action. The respondent is to decide whether the content of each description would contribute to or detract from overall organizational functioning. 12 situations or scenarios follow this set of statements, each requiring the individual to choose among four or five responses or actions most suitable to that situation.
The ten dimensions measured are as follows:
1. Performance management
2. Coaching and development
3. Planning, organizing, and scheduling
4. Problem solving
5. Interpersonal relations and working with others
6. Communications
7. Flexibility
