Custom benchmarks built around your roles, culture and performance goals

Every benchmark we create is built from the ground up for the specific role you are hiring for.  We work directly with your leaders to understand the realities of the position, the culture the person must thrive in, and the performance standards that matter.  Our behavioural experts then translate this into a clear, evidence-based benchmark that defines success with precision.

How we build the benchmark - a structured, human-guided, evidence-based process.

Success should be defined before it is measured.

Our benchmark creation process is led by Mint Kulca’s degreed behavioural experts who combine science, experience, and human insight to ensure every benchmark is accurate and completely relevant to your business.

 1. Competency selection  

We identify 5 to 8 core competencies that are essential for success in the specific role.
Selection is shaped by:

  • Deep discussions with hiring managers and leadership
  • Key performance expectations
  • Cultural alignment and team dynamics
  • Real behaviours that differentiate high performer

Where helpful, we also analyse behavioural data from similar high-performing employees to identify patterns that predict success.

 2. Human intepretation  

This is more than a template or software output.  Our experts bring context, clarity, and interpretation to ensure every benchmark reflects:

  • What great looks like in your environment
  • How the role truly operates
  • What traits drive short-term performance and long-term growth

This is the layer of Mint Kulca that removes guesswork and elevates hiring decisions.
