How we got started

Caliper was formed in 1961, after Herb Greenberg, Ph.D., the company's President and Chief Executive Officer, undertook a study for a large insurance company to determine if there was any reliable way to assess the sales potential of applicants.

After an exhaustive review, it was determined that none of the assessment instruments then existing could predict sales success with any significant degree of accuracy.

Four years of development led to the creation of a comprehensive personality test, which Caliper has since refined and used with over 25,000 companies to assess the potential of over three million people in management, sales, customer service and even professional sports.

In 1964, Dr. Greenberg's first article appeared in the Harvard Business Review, validating the original version of the test and identifying the qualities needed to succeed in sales. This article solidified Caliper's reputation within the business and academic communities. Caliper now employs more than 250 professionals in 12 offices around the world.
