- Organizational Character Evaluation
Organizational Character Evaluation (OCI)
The Organizational Character Index (OCI)
A research-backed evaluation of your culture, leadership environment, and success conditions — before hiring.
The Primethos Approach
Most executive hiring fails because organizations focus on the candidate — not the environment they are entering. Without evaluating your culture, leadership maturity, and structural readiness, even strong leaders can fail.
The OCI ensures you understand your organizational environment clearly before making high-stakes leadership decisions.
The Most Reliable Predictor
Clarity on the environment your next leader must thrive in.
Our OCI assesses eight dimensions shown to predict leadership success and cultural health.
This insight ensures you select leaders aligned with your organization’s reality — not assumptions.
