LTC and AtmanCo: A Human-Centered and Performance-Driven Approach
LTC, a recruitment firm specializing in executive and professional talent, integrated AtmanCo to enhance its assessment processes. Before this adoption, the company lacked a psychometric approach to complement its behavioral evaluations. Since 2020, AtmanCo has helped refine recruitment, coaching, and talent integration. This partnership has increased the reliability of recommendations and improved the adaptation of new hires. By combining human expertise with scientific data, LTC now provides even more precise support, further solidifying its position as a leader in talent acquisition and development.

We were already very strong in our evaluation methods, but AtmanCo allowed us to take our game to the next level, validate our intuitions, and identify blind spots we might not have seen.

Context and Overview of LTC
Today, LTC no longer focuses solely on recruiting top talent: it also supports companies in the evaluation, integration, and development of their leaders. With a team of about fifteen experts, LTC adopts a unique approach centered on collaboration, kindness, transparency, and performance.
“We are a firm driven by people. What motivates us when we wake up in the morning is the professional happiness of the talents, but also that of our clients who are looking for their future allies.” – Annie Bissonnette, Co-President, Principal Partner
This pursuit of excellence and meaning led LTC to integrate advanced psychometric tools, including the AtmanCo solution, to further enhance its expertise and impact with clients.

Challenges
Before adopting AtmanCo, LTC faced a challenge: the lack of an internal psychometric tool to enhance its candidate evaluations and address the growing needs of clients for behavioral analysis.
“Before working with Atman, we didn’t offer psychometrics, so our clients had to manage this aspect themselves.” – Annie Bissonnette
The company already had a rigorous methodology based on a thorough evaluation of candidates across three key criteria:
- Motivation and technical skills
- The talent's "superpowers," or their natural strengths and abilities
- Cultural fit with the client company
However, one element was missing: scientific validation to support these observations and provide clients with a more objective view of the selected talents.
“We were already very strong in our evaluation methods, but AtmanCo allowed us to take our game to the next level, validate our intuitions, and identify blind spots we might not have seen.” – Annie Bissonnette
Additionally, the company observed that more and more organizations were placing significant importance on psychometric tools to validate their recruitment decisions and support the integration of new employees.
