Psychometric Testing
How Psychometric Testing Can Change Your Life For The Better
If your job could use a tune up, if you feel there's something amiss but you can't put your finger on it, or if you supervise someone who is struggling, use MyProfile to help you identify the source of the problem. For example:
Daniel had been with his new company for less than a year, and he was struggling. Neither he nor his boss knew why. Daniel had years of success as a software developer, and moving over to project manager was a natural next step for him.
He liked his company and the people he worked with, and yet something wasn't right. He just couldn't put his finger on it.
Then Daniel took the MYPROFILE assessment. It confirmed that he was motivated to manage projects, that he enjoyed working with others, and that he was goal oriented. So far, so good. Then he read that he was highly motivated to work in steady familiar activities. He needed routine and structure in order to work effectively. He favoured organised, methodical procedures. That's when it all clicked.
Daniel's new environment was filled with change. It was a new company, and he was developing new software. There were very few guideposts, and even less structure. To him it felt like he was working in a blender. All of his energy was being drained away trying to cope with it all.
He shared his findings with his boss; a gutsy move to be sure. But Daniel knew he couldn't go on, and wanted to find a solution that was good for him and the organization. And that's just what happened. After some discussion, Daniel's boss helped him make a lateral move that was a better fit for him, and provided a badly needed service for the company. Now Daniel leads a team that develops procedures that allows everyone to work more effectively. He's doing what he does naturally well, and his company is becoming more productive as it adopts some structure.
MYPROFILE isn't just for people contemplating a career change. It's also a great diagnostic tool. Especially in today's job market, you want to work with what you have and not start over.
