Understanding your own behaviour is the key to developing yourself and understanding others.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We use several psychological profiling instruments to help you learn about yourself. These are usually used in conjunction with a training program, so that you can use them to develop your skills.

We are accredited in using the tools listed below:

What are your thought habits?
The Seligman Attitudinal Style Questionnaire (SASQ)
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Seligman Attributional Style Questionnaire (SASQ) is a measure of optimism and resilience. It is based on 30 years research by Professor Martin Seligman, a leading expert on the psychology of motivation and author of the national best-selling book Learned Optimism.
Research on the SASQ scientifically proves the common sense wisdom that optimistic beliefs can be self-fulfilling prophecies. The SASQ measures optimism by asking you to answer a series of questions about your response to success and failure.

What does your workplace behaviour say about you?
The DiSC Personal Profile System (DiSC)
|
|
|
|
|
|
DiSC measures an individual’s behavioural response to their perception of their environment. The Personal Profile System is one of the most reliable and valid learning instruments for understanding yourself and others.
The DiSC behavioural model was developed by Dr. William Marston in the 1920s. Marston’s theory was that people behave the way they do because of their perception of the environment and then respond accordingly. His early work has been tested and developed over the past forty years.

How effective is your team?
Team Management Systems (TMS)
|
|
|
|
|
|
TMS focuses on identifying and understanding key work elements. It identifies the strengths and weaknesses of your team and is recognised as one of the foremost methods of assessing and providing feedback to teams.

What motivates you?
Life Styles Inventory 1 (LSI 1)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Based on a combination of psychological and measurement theories, LSI 1 measures the thoughts and attitudes that motivate your behaviour, decision-making, problem solving and relationships.
You can use what you learn to initiate positive changes in how you think and act—changes that can increase your personal and professional effectiveness.

|
|
How do others perceive you?
Life Styles Inventory 2 (LSI 2)
|
|
|
|
|
|
LSI 2 is the second level in the Life Styles System created by Human Synergistics to develop the effectiveness of the individual. It is used in conjunction with LSI 1.
It measures how others perceive your behaviour. LSI 2 provides a confidential, reliable method of gathering feedback and these results will enable you to identify more constructive ways of thinking.
You will be able to pinpoint your unique strengths, as well as any stumbling blocks to your effectiveness. Feedback plays an important role in the self-realisation process.

How does your work group interact?
Group Styles Inventory (GSI)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Like individuals, work groups have their own dynamics and styles of interaction. These styles are reflected in the way group members interact with one another and approach the tasks.
Any work group that interacts to solve problems or make decisions can use GSI. Through a process of practical feedback and group discussion, teams can understand how, and why, they behave in a particular way. This creates greater cooperation, communication, innovation and cohesion. This in turn leads to better quality and greater acceptance of decisions.

What is your preferred thinking style?
The Herrmann Brain Dominance Instrument (HBDI)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ever wondered why you:
- Are most comfortable with ‘like-minded’ people yet marry the opposite?
- Have your most creative ideas in the shower (or wake up with answers)?
- Have been described as ‘left -brained’, ‘cerebral’, ‘lateral’ etc.?
The HBDI questionnaire evaluates your preference to use certain areas of your brain more than others. Your unique thinking style governs the way you interpret information, make decisions, solve problems and communicate with others.
Research has shown that, statistically, ‘Whole-Brained’ teams produce superior results. Diversity amongst team members is very valuable—provided they listen to each other! An awareness of your own and others’ thinking styles reduces misunderstandings, increases interaction and leads to more effective outcomes.
The HBDI profile provides people with insights as to their preferred thinking style. Guided by this knowledge, people are able to adapt their style to complement others to leverage the performance of a team.

What does my Personality tell me?
MBTI® instrument
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Myers Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI®) instrument is used to describe valuable differences between normal, healthy people—differences that can be the source of much misunderstanding and miscommunication.
You can use the information to better understand yourself, your motivations, your strengths, and potential areas for growth. It will also help you to better understand and appreciate those who differ from you. Understanding your MBTI® instrument type enhances cooperation and productivity.
After more than 50 years of research and development, the current MBTI® instrument is the most widely used instrument for understanding normal personality differences.
The MBTI® is used in:
|
|
|
- Self development
- Organisation development
- Change Managment
- Selling
- Problem solving
|
|
- Management and leadership training
- Team building
- Diversity and multi-cultural training
- Coaching and mentoring
- Communication Training
