What is Virtual Card Sorting in Talent Management?
Card Sorting practices have been used in the field of psychology for over 60 years! Through card sorting individuals engage directly in an active process of comparing and contrasting scenarios based upon the content (roles, practices, competencies etc.) on each card. This powerful process that has been used for decades can now be deployed virtually using our Virtual Card Sorting Platform! The result is maximum flexibility in deploying card sorting, and a view of in-depth sorting analytics that you have never had before!
