Selecting an enterprise 360-degree leadership assessment involves more than comparing feature lists. For HR and talent development leaders responsible for leadership development and talent planning, the right assessment can shape how your organization identifies leadership strengths, addresses development needs, and builds bench strength for the future.

We posted an article recently titled “Use of Artificial Intelligence for Assessments,” which you can reference here. It discusses the guidelines and ethical considerations for the use of assessments for selection or development. The current article expands on this and highlights the legal considerations in using AI in HR assessments. This article is not meant to convey legal advice, but rather to summarize information that HR professionals should consider when using assessments that integrate AI. They should also always ensure that they are consulting with their company’s own legal function about the assessments and assessment-related processes they are using for decision-making purposes.
