Assessments
Intro
"In order to be understood, we first must seek to understand."
~ Steven Covey
Why do we act the way we do? How do others see us? The ability to interact
effectively with people may be the difference between success or failure
in our work and personal life.
Assessments are software based tools, administered by professionals,
to meet a variety of needs and special applications required for increased
individual and organizational effectiveness.
Assessment reports are generated from individuals' responses to the various
instruments, and quantify information on how we perceive ourselves and
others. Through personalized information, respondents have the opportunity
to immediately increase their knowledge of themselves and others, resulting
in increased effectiveness and productivity.
"Effective interaction begins with an accurate perception of oneself."

an accurate analysis of their strengths and value to the organization,
and provides knowledge that enables them to negotiate a communication
system that produces more effective work teams.

This report gives valuable information to the employee, the manager and
the work team. It clarifies individual work styles, how styles effect
job performance and how the employee-manager relationship effects productivity
and goal achievement.
MFS Sales

and motivating new and existing salespeople to perform at their best.
It takes the guesswork out of managing salespeople, and allows companies
to develop sound relationships through individual management plans.
MFS Team Building
Do you need to assemble an effective team, reduce conflict and achieve
team results? This report helps managers target key information necessary
to accomplish this. Through individual reports, each team member clearly
perceives how he/she contributes to the organization, and gains a greater
appreciation of how differing styles are required to achieve team goals.
MFS Customer Service
Designed to allow employees having any contact with customers to
learn more about themselves, and learn how certain customers will react
to their natural communication style. This increased knowledge will help
the employee build rapport and provide more successful customer service.

Additional
TTI Assessments:
Discovery 360° FeedbackT
This assessment gathers information from several people about an individual's
effectiveness. This gives the individual the unique opportunity to see
himself/herself through the eyes of others. A 360 will identify areas
in which a person is performing above, at or below the standards of his/her
boss, self, peers and customers (if applicable). These assessments are
powerful tools for helping individuals improve, grow and develop their
(interpersonal) skills.
Personal Interests, Attitudes and ValuesT
"Why we do what we do" affects our performance both on and off the job.
A person's performance and attitude can be directly related to how they
feel about the Personal Interests, Attitudes and Values factors. This
report will allow individuals to understand how values effect their choices
and, thus, provides purpose and direction in their lives.
Time P.L.U.S.T
Identifies time wasters that impact individual productivity (and possible
causes), and offers possible solutions for correcting or eliminating specific
time wasters. It allows individuals the opportunity to develop a powerful
new approach to organizing, monitoring and managing their time.
Interviewing InsightsT General Version
Interviewing InsightsT Sales Version
This special program allows you to compare the person you are interviewing
to that person's report. It prevents the candidate from masking behavior
just to get the job. Make sure you hire the "real" person - not the candidate's
adapted behavior for the interview. Available in General and Sales version.
Communicating With StyleT
This report enhances the communication process with any group, through
an understanding of an individual's own communication style. The report
includes a section on Communication Flexibility and Situational Strategies
that develop group communication. An Action Plan designates specific communication
goals.
Successful Career PlanningT
Identifies specific talents and behaviors that employees bring to
the job. Success and job satisfaction are more likely to occur when the
job matches the employee's natural behavior style. The Successful Career
Planning report offers a system to capitalize on the employee's talents,
potential and continuing value to the organization.
Relationship InsightsT
Our ability to interact effectively with others often means the difference
between the success or failure in relationships. However, before we can
understand others, we must first understand ourselves. Relationship Insights
was designed to provide that understanding. It identifies key behavioral
areas in order to help you have a more accurate understanding of yourself.
