You can see how this creates a lot of opportunity for misjudgment on the manager’s part; and thus, a lot of missed opportunity for effective team building, successful employee engagement, productive employee coaching, and overall talent management.  Needless to say this is a very costly bottom line issue.

Companies should always use non-judgemental tools for their #management. E.G. PSI[/tweet_box]

Through the application of our proprietary Personal Strengths Inventory (PSI), we accurately measure and provide reliable feedback in simple, everyday, lay-oriented language that brings clear definition to individual differences.  PSI does this in a very proactive, affirming and coaching-focused way.  The information is comparative, NOT judgmental, and it facilitates the acceptance of every employee’s individuality in terms that make it much easier for managers to maximize work-related engagement through objective understanding instead of biased assumptions.

What follows is a brief overview of 7 of the PSI factors that have significant impact on a manager’s ability to successfully achieve productive employee engagement from her/his total workforce. These 7 factors are presented visually on easy-to-understand horizontal bar graphs that indicate where an individual employee (or manager) intuitively leans in their “normal” approach to engagement and achieving work-related performance.  Like most everything else in life, knowledge is empowering.

Mr. Pink, thank you.  And if you have read this entire blog post and are still here, thank you too!
