Business Assessments

🔍 Tailored Assessments for Business Growth

Our business coaching programs start with three core assessments that provide invaluable insights into how employees think, communicate, and perform. Each tool is designed to address specific areas of employee performance and organizational success.

1️⃣ DISC Behavioral Assessment: Enhancing Communication and Reducing Stress 💬

The DISC Behavioral Assessment measures how employees communicate, handle conflict, and interact with others. It identifies four core behavioral traits:

Dominance (D): How a person handles challenges and problems.
Influence (I): How a person interacts with others and shares ideas.
Steadiness (S): How a person responds to pace and consistency.
Compliance (C): How a person follows rules and structure.

The DISC assessment helps improve team communication, reduce misunderstandings, and create a more harmonious work environment by teaching employees and managers to recognize each other’s unique communication styles.

By improving communication, businesses can reduce workplace stress caused by miscommunication and unclear expectations. When employees feel heard and understood, they experience less burnout and higher engagement.

This tool also enhances team function and unity by aligning tasks with employees’ natural strengths, ensuring each team member is set up for success.

2️⃣ Hartman Value Profile (HVP): Improving Decision-Making and Role Alignment 🧩

The Hartman Value Profile (HVP) goes beyond behavior to assess how employees think and make decisions. It measures judgment across three key value areas:

💖 Intrinsic (People-Focused): Prioritizes relationships and emotional connections.
⚙️ Extrinsic (Task-Oriented): Focuses on practical tasks, actions, and responsibilities.
📚 Systemic (Strategic Thinking): Values logic, structure, and rules.

The HVP helps businesses improve decision-making by identifying how employees process information and make choices. For instance, an employee with strong Intrinsic values may prioritize people and relationships when making decisions, whereas someone with strong Systemic values may focus on rules and procedures.

By understanding these differences, managers can delegate tasks more effectively, ensuring that employees’ strengths are fully utilized. This also helps reduce workplace conflicts, as employees begin to understand why their colleagues approach situations differently.

Aligning roles with employees’ value structures improves job satisfaction, engagement, and long-term performance.

3️⃣ Driving Forces Report: Boosting Engagement and Productivity 🔑

The Driving Forces Report identifies what motivates employees to perform at their best. Understanding these motivators is essential for keeping employees engaged and productive.

The report measures six key motivators that drive engagement:

Knowledge and Learning: Motivated by personal and professional growth.
Efficiency: Driven by completing tasks in the most effective way.
Collaboration: Prefers working with others toward shared goals.
Status and Recognition: Seeks success, achievement, and validation.
Balance and Stability: Prefers a structured, predictable environment.
Altruism: Motivated by helping others and making a positive impact.

When managers understand what drives each employee, they can align tasks and roles to fit their natural motivators, resulting in higher engagement, productivity, and job satisfaction.

For example, an employee driven by efficiency may excel in process-driven roles, while someone motivated by altruism may thrive in customer-facing positions.

🎯 How Our Assessments Help Businesses Improve

Our assessments are more than just tools for gathering data—they provide actionable insights that drive real improvements in your business. Here’s how they help improve stress management, decision-making, team performance, and productivity across your organization:

Reducing Stress

One of the biggest causes of workplace stress is poor communication and unclear expectations. The DISC assessment helps reduce stress by improving communication channels and clarifying roles and responsibilities. Employees feel more confident, less anxious, and more focused on their tasks.

Improving Decision-Making

The Hartman Value Profile reveals how employees make decisions based on their value structure. By understanding whether someone is more Intrinsic, Extrinsic, or Systemic, managers can adjust their approach to delegate tasks more effectively, reduce errors, and speed up decision-making processes.

This leads to better outcomes and greater efficiency across the organization.

Enhancing Team Function and Unity

Teamwork improves when employees understand each other’s communication styles and value differences.

The DISC and HVP assessments help managers build stronger, more cohesive teams by aligning roles with strengths and motivators, reducing frustrations and improving collaboration.

A team that understands each member’s unique contributions is more likely to be productive, unified, and resilient in the face of challenges.

Boosting Production and Execution

The Driving Forces Report helps managers tap into what truly motivates employees, leading to higher productivity and better execution of tasks.

When employees are engaged and motivated, they are more likely to:

Focus on completing tasks efficiently.
Take ownership of their work.
Contribute to the overall success of the team.

Improved role alignment and motivation lead to higher production levels, better results, and greater profitability.
