Used in conjunction with coaching or training, assessments can be effective personal and professional development tools for individuals and teams.

We follow two principles in using assessments:
  • Assessments simply provide a framework and starting point for personal and professional development work. Assessment reports reflect what is typical for people who answer the questions the way you did. But that doesn’t mean it’s exactly right or true for you. After understanding and considering the feedback report, you are the best judge of what’s true for you. Also, we avoid using assessments as either limits or labels. All individuals have broad unused capacities that can be developed. Assessments typically uncover the preferred ones, habitual ones or the ones that are already developed. They also help us understand our own strengths and uniqueness. Used as a starting point, assessments can open up new perspectives, skills, and possibilities for people.

  • The value in using assessments comes not from the assessment itself, but from the “so what?” stage. Assessments provide useful self-knowledge and frameworks for understanding yourself and others. We use them to help clients increase their capacity to access the best from themselves, their colleagues, and their customers. We work on understanding what individuals need in order to accomplish their best work and how to design communication, organizational structures, and group interaction to increase overall effectiveness.
