Personal & Organizational Assessments
Some examples of assessment tools that can provide you with an understanding of how you can capitalize on your strengths and understand your limitations are:
The DISC Behavioral Style Assessment
This tool identifies which one of four core behavioral styles you tend to demonstrate and how you use a blend of all the styles in your interactions with others. The acronym “DISC” is taken from the first letter of each of these four main behavioral traits:
D – Dominance
I – Influence
S – Steadiness
C – Conscientiousness
When you understand your own behavioral and communication styles and are able to identify the styles of others, you can use this knowledge to forge stronger work and personal relationships.
TTI Job Benchmarking tool
The TTI’s patented Job Benchmarking process is a unique and effective assessment tool because it does not benchmark the person in the job, but the job itself. With the help of an interactive process, the four key phases can be duplicated across all positions within the company:
- In the first phase, the position will be analysed (why the position exists, how successful it has been, its history and development and how it fits the company strategy). In phase two, key accountabilities of the position are defined. Phase three creates a benchmark for the job and in phase four, talent is compared to the job benchmark.
- Job Benchmarking ensures the best job fit. It will help you attract the best candidates, save you time and funds and reduces the learning curve with new employees who are strategically matched to fit your company.
TTI TriMetrixHD®
In combination with DISC Behaviors and Motivators, the TriMetrixHD® is an innovative talent management tool that is used in training, for promotion, selection, coaching, managing, and succession planning. Based on a unique 55-factor analysis it examines the behavior that a person brings to the job, the motivators that drive them, and looks at the potential to provide the competencies and acumen required by the job. It assesses “how” a person will behave, “why” they behave the way they do and “what” potential they bring. The in-depth assessment capacity of this tool allows for an accurate picture to be formed.
EQ-I 2.0®
“Emotional Intelligence is at the very heart of a leader’s ability to create the kind of positive climate that inspires loyalty and motivates performance.” (Malloy & Goleman, 2013). Emotional Intelligence (EQ) is a set of emotional and social skills that influence the way we perceive and express ourselves, develop and maintain social relationships and cope with challenges. It is about using emotional information in an effective and meaningful way by understanding, interpreting and responding well to the emotions of others. The EQ-I 2.0® measures your emotional intelligence and provides numerous practical strategies for increasing it.
