Assessments

A first and necessary step to any improvement comes from learning self-awareness. Personal development and organizational development cannot begin until each is made aware of an issue or problem.

Assessments are an important tool for evaluating strengths and limitations. The results provide insight into someone’s potential and identifies specific opportunity areas. Since the evaluation is not based on one person’s perception, an assessment can carry significant weight when properly discussed with the person being assessed.

Correctly employed assessments have a significant role to play in a person’s development. An assessment:

  • Usually shortens the time required to discover a person’s development gaps,
  • Is an important tool for the organization to use in assigning people to the right position and team, and
  • Is a way to help predict an individual’s success.

The assessments that the coaching partner and the participant may use will be selected on the basis of the specific situation and type of feedback required. More information follows on two different assessments that we offer: the Energy Leadership Index and Taylor Protocols™.


ELI-The-Index

A Mirror that Reflects Your World

The Energy Leadership Index (E.L.I.) is a one-of-a-kind assessment that enables leaders to hold up mirrors to their perceptions, attitudes, behaviors, and overall leadership capabilities. The E.L.I. forms the initial launching point for the Energy Leadership Development System, helping to give you a baseline for your current performance and situation. Whether you proceed through the full system or not, the realizations that you’ll gain from the Energy Leadership assessment and debrief process alone will change the way you view your world.

Background: An Attitudinal Assessment

There are two main types of assessments: Personality and Attitudinal. Personality-based assessments, such as Myers Briggs and D.I.S.C., are very valuable tools that pinpoint certain personality types, so that people can have more of an understanding about what their strengths and weaknesses are. By understanding your personality and how it relates to what you do, you can adapt your behavior to “work with what you have” to function effectively.

The E.L.I. is an attitudinal assessment, which is based on an energy/action model. This assessment differs from personality assessments as it is not intended to label a person and have them work well within that label. Instead, it measures your level of energy based on your attitude, or perception, and perspective of your world. Because attitude is subjective, it can be altered. By working with a coach using the E.L.I., you can alter your attitude and perspective, make a shift in your consciousness, and increase your energy and leadership effectiveness.

There are no limits to the potential growth that you can achieve. Once you realize that your level of consciousness is directly related to your actions, you can move from functioning effectively to functioning optimally.

As part of the Energy Leadership Index assessment and debrief process, you’ll learn about the 7 levels of leadership and how much energy you currently have in both the catabolic-suppressing range and the anabolic-inspirational range. You’ll be debriefed on the findings of the assessment and coached on how to navigate yourself to higher performance.

If you proceed on to the Energy Leadership Development System, you’ll be coached on how to become your ideal image of who you need to be as a leader for your situation, division, team, and/or company.


Taylor Protocols Logo

Never before has a management tool been so accessible, so reliable, and created the kind of ROI that compels companies to change the way they think about Human Capital! Taylor Protocols™ has 20 years of proven technology and experience in the business optimization arena.

The Taylor Protocols™ are designed to optimize the people equation in organizations in ways never thought possible before. Most times, it is not a person’s skill, experience, or attitude that prevents them from being a Top Performer in a given job. It is their innate capacity to perform certain tasks and functions the way the position requires. If a person’s motivational drivers and sense of contribution does not align with the work they are being asked to do, they will never rise to the top.

Learn how Taylor Protocols™ can help you …

  • Dramatically Increase Sales » Our clients experienced a sales increase of 71% within 12 months
  • Hire More Top Performers » Our clients hired 182% more top performers
  • Screen Out Current and Future Poor Performers » Our clients reduced poor performers within their organizations by 86%. These are actual results of 15 client companies over a 12 month period.

Created in the throes of turnaround management and business optimization projects, a revolutionary 10-minute assessment – The Core Values Index™ (CVI) – was born to measure and quantify where people can rise to their place of highest and best contribution and shift the human productivity bell-curve and destroy the 80/20 Principle.

What is your current level of Human Capital Efficiency? What is the ROI of your Human Capital?

We find these are questions most executives can either not answer or don’t know how to answer, yet the cost of people for many companies exceeds 50% of gross revenue. In our work with more than 700 companies of all sizes we have consistently discovered that they operate at less than 33% human capital efficiency. We have been able to vastly increase employee productivity and engagement. We can predict FUTURE performance and we are able to guarantee A or B performers, while eliminating C & D performers for any position in any company!

Important questions to wrestle with:

  • How many A and B-level performers are required in a given position to produce 100% of the current productive output of the team?
  • What would be the productive capacity and net profit potential of your company if you had only A and B-level performers?

Whether it is through our Human Capital Audit™, Executive Team Profile™ or in hiring with our Top Performer Profile™ (TPP), we save our clients time, money, and frustration, and at the same time increase revenue, margins, and profits by factors that they generally believe are not possible.

We provide:

  • A simple ROI analysis for anyone on your staff to use to evaluate one or more of your key functional positions. Just email us or give us a call.
  • Increased human productivity and increased profits beyond what is generally believed to be possible.
