Where Do You Need Assistance? We provide an integrated suite of behavioural software and dynamic services:
Building on Strengths in Others? We can show you your innate personality strengths, how you make decisions, the size of your internal ‘battery’ which is the sum of your personal, intellectual, social, spiritual and academic strengths and how you predictably approach tasks and work commitments.
Matching People to Jobs? Using the Job Dynamics Analysis® and matching it with the ProScan 400 Survey®, it is easy to see the personality ‘fit’ between the individual and the work for which they are responsible. Consideration is given to present stress loads.
Effective Teams? As we empower individuals to ‘read’ their own profile, they will quickly learn to read the ‘profiles’ of their team members. TeamScan® assists in building dynamic teams as they increase their understanding of each other – their strength and responses.
Developing Leadership? There is an important difference between leadership and management. Good leaders are good managers even if they do not do the actual ‘managing.’ Leaders know what has to be done, set vision and goals and provide a path to success!
Improving Interview Techniques? Using the Job Dynamics Analysis® and creating a JobScan® based on your expectations of the role, we provide you with dynamic information that does not appear on the CV. An interview Guide is provided as part of the analysis.
Motivating your People? Do your people come to work to become part of the answer or part of the problem? Knowing who they are and what motivates them is vital! Did you know that some personalities are ‘turned off’ by certain environments? Others are motivated by their surroundings.
Cross-Cultural Communication? We live in a multi-cultural society and it is important that apart from personality understanding, we appreciate the differing world-views of those with whom we work. In this way we can avoid ‘minefields of misunderstanding.’ Are you detecting ‘stress areas’ in your organisation?
Customer Relationships? Some personalities ‘fit’ a sales and customer profile. Some people are good listeners and non-judgemental. They know how to evaluate the needs of the customers and do it either intuitively or through analysis. Understanding your staff is the first step in this direction.
Selecting the Right Applicant? Many applicants appear to be ‘right’ as they present themselves to you, but we can rate their potential as part of the Job Dynamics Analysis® which will give you a good understanding of their personality and their predictable responses.
Enhancing Communication? Increasing the communication skills of your staff always adds to the efficiency of your organisation. Conflict Resolution skills need to be developed in people as well as understanding how they will react or respond under pressure.
Job-Related Stress? We all need to work under some stress, but some personalities increase their stress load by self-imposed and unrealistic goals. Others, because of their loyalty push themselves beyond their capacity. We identify many stressors for them.
Cross Training? Are you providing opportunities for cross-training in your organisation? Are people just ‘doing a job,’ ‘occupying a position’ or ‘accepting responsibility’ for being at work. There is a real difference to be noted and opportunities will be provided.
Reducing Turnover? Have you sat down and calculated what it costs you to replace a staff member? Apart from the cash component, what about the loss of productivity with the change in staff and the time it takes to train their replacement? And let’s not forget the turmoil that inevitably occurs with the rest of the staff!
Efficient Performance Evaluations? You don’t just want to know how well your staff members are performing; you will want to empower them to increase their skill set and improve productivity. Key Performance Indicators, set by the individual with their manager are vital.
Interpersonal Conflict? How much time are you losing as people ‘defend their turf’ and channel their resources into winning battles, rather than accomplishing organisational goals? Learn the back-up styles of people when ‘it just isn’t worth it anymore!’
Team Building? Working with your present personnel to enhance the synergies within the team to produce positive results within the organisation is absolutely vital! As they learn to understand themselves and the others on their team they will increase their synergies.
