Analyse digital mindset - with the DCI module of the Mindset Navigator platform
Analyse your personality in 6 success-critical dimensions of the digital mindset.
What is the DCI of the Mindset Navigator platform?
Analyse digital mindset to gain an understanding of personality characteristics in 6 success-critical dimensions for dealing with digital transformation. The Digital Competence Indicator (DCI) - part of the Mindset Navigator platform - is a modern diagnostic tool for analysing the digital mindset of your employees.
It is not about digital skills, such as programming langugaes or software knowledge, but about the analysis of the so-calles digital mindset, i.e. the develpment of personality dimensions that are critical for success in dealing with digital tranformation.
With the DCI, you can analyse, evalute, and improve the digital mindset of employees and candidates and therefore tap their full potential in the digital world.
What does the DCI measure?
The DCI measures and analyses 6 dimensions of the digital mindset. Each of these dimensions has two opposite poles. The DCI analysis where DCI users (i.e. employees and candidates) are pronounced between these two poles.
-
Openness and agility vs. persistence
-
Proactivity vs. reactivity
-
Creativity vs. process loyalty
-
Criticality vs. harmony orientation
-
Dealing openly with failure vs. avoiding failure
-
Customer-centric vs. task-centric
With the DCI, you can identify your strenghts and potentials in each of these mindset dimensions and use them to develop an action plan to evolve and grow in digital transformation.
Through these 6 dimensions of the digital mindset, a type assignment can be made to four digital types. These digital types characterize the four different roles in digital transformation: Digital Questioner, Digital Advocate, Digital Bridgebuilder and Digital Nerd.
How can the DCI help you ?
The DCI helps you to analyse and understand the digital mindset of employees and candidates. Based on this analysis, development plans can be built and an individualized development of the digital mindset becomes possible.
Therefore, the DCI is the tool to make your company fit for the digital future.
Diagnostics in recruiting
The DCI enables soft skill matching for digital mindset in recruiting and therefore forms the perfect basis for interviews. This makes personnel selection even more accurate, increases the fit of candidates to your company, and prevents hiring mistakes. In the long term, this custom-fit recruiting reduces recruiting and onboarding costs enormously.
Diagnostics for personnel development
The DCI is the perfect status quo analysis for digital mindset to get started with individualized personnel development. On the basis of the status quo analysis, learning content and development opportunities can be individualized for each employee. This not only increases the motivation to learn enormously, but above all the learning success and therefore also the future viability of the entire company. With the integrated learning platform MIA, the Mindset Navigator platform also offers the possibility for each DCI user to start directly on an individualized modern learning path for digital mindset and digital skills.

The DCI is an important component of the global "Leadership in Transformation" program. Among other things, the tool serves as a location assessment and provides a precise analysis related to the digital mindset. For us, DCI has been an excellent basis for targeted leadership development in these turbulent times. We have also used the tool in several European markets and are very satisfied with the results. Definitely a must have in times of digital transformation

I have worked on the HR side as well as on the digitalization side. From both perspectives, this tool is a great asset for any organization: the digital mindset can be optimally used in recruiting as well as in HR development. The same applies to organizational development topics in order to bring the right people along in a healthy digital organizaion and to expand the mindset for the future.

Head of People Onshore & Talent Development
Performance & Personality are indispensable, especially in transformation processes - which is why we have decided within the NSB Group that critical questions about the career path alone are no longer sufficient, but instead sound out the digital mindset of the applicants. Since 2021 we have been underpinning our impressions from the interviews with the objective evaluations of the Digital Competence Indicator. They do not relieve us of the responsibility of making a decision - but sometimes the reaction to the invitation to the test already provides information about the open-mindedness of the applicants and their willingness to deal with innovations.

What DCI customers say
The digital types
There are a total of 4 digital types that result from the 6 Mindset Dimensions.
All these types have strengths and values for the system and no type is better or worde than another type. In the DCI, users receive feedback on the digital types to better understand the result and to make the result more tangible.
Users receive feedback on the percentage of which type they are.
After the digital mindset has been analysed, the mindset is not assigned to just one digital type. Mindset is a combination of the different types, which are pronounced differently.

For who is the analysis of the digital mindset using the DCI suited?
How does the content of the DCI come together?
Over the past few years, we have conducted several hundred interviews with candidates and customers and discovered that patterns and types emerge. Based on this, we have developed a matrix that analysis the digital mindset, in which each type can described in terms pf its strengths, its value to the system, and its limitations.
With several thousand deployments of the DCI, the matrix with the six success critical dimensions and four digital types has become more and more solidified and the norm values have evolved.
