The Marketplace Situation

Leaders and Managers are most effective when they operate from a position of self-awareness. Sorting out which behaviors contribute to their success and which diminish their success is a powerful starting point for a person working to improve his or her effectiveness.

Team results also benefit when team members know and understand their psychological type preferences and the preferences and working styles of teammates.

The Compass Solution

Compass utilizes proven tools to identify type preferences and those behaviors a person uses on the job.  We use the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) to measure psychological type preferences.  We use the MBTI results for one-on-one coaching and we lead Type Preference workshops to build more effective teams.

Our 360° assessments are from the Clark Wilson Group, one of the leaders in feedback instruments.  The Clark Wilson surveys identify leadership strengths and development needs, generate self-awareness, assess skills that can be developed and encourage responsibility for self-development.  They are an ideal precursor to building individual development plans.

The Clark Wilson Leadership Practices survey looks at 17 areas including Vision, Risk-taking, Teaming, Energy, Standards of Performance and Persuasiveness.

These feedback tools can be used alone or in concert with individual coaching. They are cost effective and can be administered for one person or a whole organization.
