Determine the right assessment for you to use with clients is a challenge.

Here is teleclass recording of one of my most favourite sessions Roberta Hill’s Ten Criteria for Selecting An Assessment

Recording of teleclass with Roberta Hill on Monday, March 12th, 2007  Please note that the quality of the recording is not the best but this is the most current version.  There are a lot of “lisping” in my voice for some reason.  You will need to put your speakers up.

I have also included a much better quality recording on this topic which contains virtually the same information but was conducted in 2002. There is more background noice but my voice is clearer.  It is the same length but will contain references to events that are no longer relevant. I also assume that some of the prices I quote have probably gone up.

The Social Styles Online Assessment Although no single behavioral style works better than any other, flexibility – the ability to get along with people whose styles differ from one’s own – frequently distinguishes success or lack of success. Major definitive research on style classifications was done by Merrill and Reid The two continuums in this model are Ask vs. Tell and Controls Emotions vs. Emotes. This results in the four social styles: Expressive, Driving, Analytic and Amiable. If you like the Platinum Rule® – you will love this one. The DISCself Online Assessment Grounded in the revolutionary work of Harvard-trained psychologist Dr. William Moulton Marston, the DISC system characterizes human behavior into four distinct social styles: Dominant, Interactive, Steady and Conscientious. The way you relate to other people is, in large part, defined by which of those social styles is dominant in your personality. The Online Values Assessment The Online Values Assessment is a combination of the research of Dr. Eduard Spranger and Gordon Allport into what drives and motivates an individual. The seven dimensions of value discovered between these two researchers help understand the reasons that drive an individual to utilize their talents in the unique way they do. This Values Index will help you understand your motivators and drivers and how to maximize your performance by achieving better alignment and passion for what you do. The Online Values Assessment measures seven dimensions of motivation: Aesthetic – a drive for balance, harmony and form. Economic – a drive for economic or practical returns. Individualistic – a drive to stand out as independent and unique. Political – a drive to be in control or have influence. Altruistic – a drive for humanitarian efforts; help others altruistically. Regulatory – a drive to establish order, routine and structure. Theoretical – a drive for knowledge, learning and understanding.
