The Birkman Method is an online personality, social perception, and occupational interest assessment consisting of ten scales describing occupational preferences (Interests), 11 scales describing "effective behaviors" (Usual behaviors) and 11 scales describing interpersonal and environmental expectations (Needs or Expectations).
The construction and comparative analysis of the Birkman Method is designed to provide insight into what specifically drives a person's behavior, with the goal of creating greater choice and more self-responsibility.
