Value the Person™ Individual, Team and Organisational Assessments

Value the Person™ Individual, Team and Organisational Assessments provides psychometric testing services for individuals, teams and organisations around the world, tailored to meet specific needs and requirements. We specialise in measuring personality, capability, motivation and organisational effectiveness.

1. Individual Assessments:

Conventional wisdom says that success is a simple matter of “being who you want to be”. According to the experts [– see ‘The Personality Code’ by Dr Travis Bradberry, G P Putnam’s Sons, 2007], this well–intended advice couldn’t be further from the truth. By the time we reach adulthood, “who we are” is already determined by fixed traits that change little in a lifetime.

With the vast majority of what we do and say controlled by personality, self–awareness stands alone as the key indicator to our success. The secret of building self–awareness lies in deciphering your personality code, that is, the fixed set of traits that explain your uniqueness – your natural talents, your choices and your behaviours.

Knowing your personality will help you to fully engage your innate talents, maximise your strengths, avoid the pitfalls of your particular personality type, work smarter with others, and profit from better relationships in every aspect of your life and career.

We also assess individual motivation [– that is, what ‘switches you on’ and switches you off’] and your personal capabilities [– that is, innate capabilities, such as, intellectual capabilities].

2. High Performance Teams

In a similar way to individual success, one of the keys to creating a high performance team lies in the team leader, and all the team members, understanding the individual and combined strengths and shortcomings of their team so that they can build effective relationships with each other and ‘play to their strengths’, so they avoid the mistakes they seem to make consistently as a team.

Because research has shown us that ‘team motivation’ is another key to the team’s effectiveness, it is imperative that the team measures their motivational levels but, most importantly, understands what they can do to enhance their overall motivation and productivity.

Consequently, Value the Person™ Assessments assess all aspects of the team’s strengths and shortcomings, and their motivation.

3. Organisational Performance & Effectiveness:

Finally, as most of us would have predicted, all the research in recent years has shown us that employee motivation, leadership and organisation culture are the keys to maximising organisational success.

For this reason, Value the Person™ Assessments accurately measures these aspects of the organisation’s performance and effectiveness but, also, recommends simple actions the organisation can take to significantly enhance their organisational success.
