| New Tools to Measure Trust |
The
ability to create trust, maintain trust and develop trust plays a
critical role in individual and organizational performance.
Introducing two new exciting products to help you and your organization
deal with this mission critical issue.
The TRUSTPRO™
The
ability to create trust, maintain trust and develop trust plays a
critical role in individual and organizational performance. For a
business relationship to be successful, company representatives must
follow through with their commitments and be capable of engendering
trust quickly.
The TRUSTPRO™,
developed in partnership with trust expert Deborah Nixon,
Ph.D., identifies an individual's propensity toward trust and
diagnoses what the individual does to impede or facilitate it in their
business relationships. The customized, detailed reporting system helps
leadership to coach and develop this critical skill.
The ORGANIZATIONAL TRUST INDEX™
The new ORGANIZATIONAL TRUST INDEX™
is a web based assessment system that provides a comprehensive and
multidimensional look at the current levels of trust within your
organization.
The
resulting data can be used to identify the strengths and growth
opportunities within your organization and inform future engagement
initiatives. Used both as a pre and post analysis, high
performing organizations looking to build cultures based on trust use
the Organizational Trust Index™ to measure the effectiveness of their
trust building strategies.
The ORGANIZATIONAL TRUST INDEX™ measures employees' perceptions of:
- Ethics / Integrity
- Transparency
- Benevolence
- Predictability

| Managing Effort: Getting Results Open Training Session |
A Performance Management & Coaching Workshop
As a manager and leader of others, getting results is your top priority. In
most cases, you can't do it all by yourself: you depend on the
performance of the people you work for, the people you work with and
the people who work for you. As a manager, you are responsible for
results - but you cannot manage those results.
Based on the book Managing Effort: Getting Results by John Marshall Ph.D. and Bob McHardy CLU, this special, open session of Managing Effort: Getting Results will provide managers, leaders and coaches with the skills and practical strategies proven to improve performance and results.
- improved performance, increased results and retention
- employees become more self-managed & maximize results
- management time is spent coaching rather than coaxing
- reduced management burn-out
- managers learn a coaching system that creates a high performance culture
It deals with the ultimate goal of management - the development of responsible, self-managing high-performers.
November 4th-5th
Only $895 p/p , Includes Management Pro, Workbook, Textbook & lunch both days

| Avoiding Assessment Mistakes #5
Using Type Indicators as Performance Predictors |
 In our last issue we talked about the difference between a "Type Indicator" and a "Normative Assessment". Download full article, Assessing the Assessors: Choosing the Right Recruiting, Screening & Selection Tool for your Business. In this issue we will discuss
role specific assessment tools.
The
psychological make up of a successful entrepreneur is different than
the psychological make up of a successful call center employee, manager
or franchise owner. The skill sets and experience required for
each of these roles are also different. If you are
attempting to accurately predict performance and retention in the
selection process, make sure you are using a role specific
tool. Go here to see our list of role specific assessment tools and view a free sample report.
