Team Building

(Advanced Insights)

Picture
Desired Outcome(s): Use the ADVanced Insights Inventory, that combines the best of three researched based world-class tools, to understand yourself and leverage your natural talents.

There are three different, yet intricately connected profiles:  DISC (focuses on HOW a person responds to problems, people, pace of work, and procedures/precedents); Values Index (focuses on WHY a person does what they do and what are their motivators); and Attributes Index (in WHAT order a person thinks and processes).  This combination of profiles is a powerful tool in understanding candidates prior to actually hiring them. ​
