For Enterprises
Protect Your Most Consequential Decisions
Before you promote. Before you hire. Before you transform. Know what interviews can’t tell you.
Where Alchemize™ Makes the Difference
Executive Hiring
You’ve committed $400K in comp, 6 months of onboarding, and your division’s credibility to this hire. Alchemize™ helps you protect that investment before you make it.
Succession Planning
Your succession pipeline shouldn’t favor the loudest voice in the room or the longest tenure on the org chart. Assess readiness, not proximity.
Transformation Leadership
Digital transformation, post-merger integration, market expansion — all VUCA environments that require leaders who can adapt under pressure. Are yours ready?
AI Transition Readiness
The leaders who will navigate AI adoption aren’t just technically fluent — they’re adaptive, resilient, and able to lead teams through fundamental change.
The VP Who Wasn't Ready
Challenge
A PE-backed SaaS company ($50M ARR) was preparing to promote their VP of Product to Chief Product Officer. On paper, the candidate was perfect: 12 years at the company, beloved by the team, deep product knowledge. The board was ready to approve.
Assessment
The CHRO requested a Alchemize™ assessment before finalizing the promotion. The structured evaluation surfaced:
- • High scores on domain expertise and team relationships
- • Low scores on adaptive capacity and strategic ambiguity tolerance
- • Red flag: Difficulty articulating how they'd lead through uncertainty or pivot strategy when market conditions shifted
Outcome
Instead of immediate promotion, the company:
- Paired the VP with an executive coach focused on strategic leadership
- Created a 6-month development plan targeting adaptive capacity
- Had them shadow the CEO during board meetings and investor calls
18 months later, the VP successfully led the company through a major product pivot after a competitor launched. They earned the CPO role—and were ready for it.
Impact
- • Avoided a $500K+ mis-hire (severance, re-recruiting, team disruption)
- • Retained institutional knowledge and team morale
- • Developed a high-potential leader instead of losing them
Built for How Enterprises Actually Work
Enterprise talent decisions don't all look the same, and neither should the assessment. Alchemize™ offers two complementary input modes designed to meet organizations where they are.
Structured Assessment — open-ended, scenario-based questions that can be administered as a standalone evaluation or integrated into your existing interview process. Designed to surface how a leader performs under pressure and navigates VUCA conditions — volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity.
Leadership Signal Analysis — insight drawn from existing content such as internal presentations, town halls, conference talks, interviews, and more. This reduces assessment fatigue while still delivering actionable readiness data.
Both modes work for new hires and existing leaders alike. Use one or combine them — the Engine adapts to how your organization makes decisions.
In both modes, the constructs measured are tailored to the specific role, context, and risk profile — because what matters for a Chief Digital Officer leading transformation is different from what matters for a regional GM navigating a turnaround.
We Don't Just Diagnose — We Develop
Every Alchemize™ profile can be paired with our certified coaching network. Our coaching partners translate assessment insights into targeted development plans — so the leaders you invest in become the leaders you need them to be.
