Sklar & Associates offers five valuable assessments offering powerful insights that can help transform individuals and in turn, organizations.

 

FourSight Creative Problem Solving (CPS) assessment

What kind of thinker are you?

FourSight gives teams and organizations insight into each individual’s preferred way of clarifying, generating, developing, and implementing ideas. How? By asking 36 simple questions. Each has been carefully developed and thoroughly researched to provide a clear perspective of how individuals can innovate with others most effectively.

Once you have your assessment results, Sklar & Associates will teach you and your team a research-based model for creatively solving problems and accelerating team performance.

Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) – Personality Assessment

The Myers Briggs Type Indicator is an instrument designed to measure psychological preferences in how people perceive the world and make decisions. These preferences are rooted in the theories of Carl Jung. Understanding these preferences is extremely useful for helping individuals understand how they deal with work and life’s challenges. The MBTI can provide a common language for teams to work more effectively with one another and for individuals to enhance interpersonal relationships – whether client relationships, business contacts or fellow practice group members.

RightPath LQ360 - Multi-Rater assessment

RightPath LQ360 - Multi-Rater assessment is a leadership behavioral and performance assessment that helps individuals understand how others view his or her leadership. This assessment measures research-based leadership attributes and breaks out results into five categories: (1) results, (2) relationships, (3) emotional intelligence (EQ), (4) trust, and (5) developing others. Leaders can identify and prioritize areas of development critical to personal growth, realizing potential and enhancing performance.

The Highlands Ability Battery (HAB) - Natural Ability assessment

The Highlands Ability Battery (HAB) is an instrument that assesses (actually “tests”) an individual’s natural abilities so he or she can gain clarity on the abilities that come most naturally to them as well as those abilities that do not come as easily. Understanding strengths provides needed insights that will allow individuals to align roles and responsibilities with interests and goals. HAB offers clarity and insight into what tasks bring greater enjoyment and satisfaction (because they align with natural abilities) and what tasks deplete energy (because they are not a natural fit). HAB can be tremendously helpful for teams and individuals who want to work more effectively and increase their professional satisfaction.

TKI Conflict Mode Instrument – Conflict Style (or Mode) assessment

The Thomas-Kilmann Conflict Mode Instrument (TKI) helps individuals and teams understand how each person’s conflict styles affect interpersonal and team dynamics in the process of getting work done. It provides valuable insight into behaviors needed to work through interpersonal and team conflict.
