Career Assessments

Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)

The MBTI has become the “gold standard”:  for understanding people by looking at eight personality preferences that everyone uses at different times. The MBTI has been used for decades in many organizations for team building and in understanding individual differences. The assessment uncovers significant personal preferences and reveals new ways to work with others.

Strong Interest Inventory (SII)

This assessment is well-respected and widely-used career planning instrument. The SII can help you to find your dream job, improve the direction of your career and gain more satisfaction from your work. The assessment is based on looking at your interests and matches these to specific occupations and careers.

Schein’s Career Anchor Inventory (COI)

The creator of the COI, Edgar Schein, defines “career anchors” as the aspects of a career or job that motivate you. Determining what you are good at, what motivates you and what you value, will enable you to make better career choices.  These anchors are “non-negotiable” values that are essential for satisfaction.  Examples are:  Challenge, Autonomy and Creativity.

Emotional Intelligence 2.0 (Bradberry and Graves)

People with a high EI understand their emotions and are good at controlling them in the workplace. Today’s companies are well aware of this and are taking a more holistic hiring approach. This practical program will help you to enhance your emotional intelligence and gain an edge in your professional life.

Change Style Indicator (Discovery Learning)

How do you handle change? This assessment tool is designed to measure how people approach and deal with change. The results can increase self-awareness, measure change-readiness, improve teamwork and greatly enable the group’s creativity by understanding change style preferences.

 StrengthsFinder 2.0

First introduced by the Gallup Organization, the StrengthsFinder assessment reveals your top five themes (strengths), your natural talents. Instead of compensating for your weaknesses, this assessment will help you to uncover your strengths and then work on strategies to apply these to your career and personal life.  Focusing on your strengths helps you to be more engaged and productive in everything you do.
