Opusuna Roles: Identify How People Add Value
to Drive Team Success

A 'Role' is a person's attraction to one of ten specific organizational needs, such as planning vs. execution.

Why is 'Role-Fit' so important? Because aligning Roles with job responsibilities and the team's mission improves individual, team, and company performance.

Here's how:

When people are in Roles that align with their strengths and interests, they are more engaged and productive.

When Roles are aligned with job responsibilities, everyone knows what is expected of them and can work together more effectively.

When Roles are aligned with the team's mission, everyone is working towards the same goals and can achieve more together.

If you want to improve your team's performance, start by aligning roles.

Hire the right person.

Save Months of Ineffective Recruitment Work

Opusuna's Role-based assessment is the only way to predict how people will perform on a team.

It allows you to know what will happen between people as they work together.

  • Completed within an hour
  • Actionable Information
  • Time saved; avoids unfit candidates
  • Bias Free

Role-based assessment vs Personality Testing
