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.
