Personality Assessments for Effective Teams & Culture of Self-awareness

Personality assessments have been around for more than 50 years and over 50% of businesses that use assessments only use them for selection. Their potential for team building is immense, but only about 26% of companies use them for that. It’s no secret that your employees want to feel included and heard, and they want to get along with each other. Personality assessments are the perfect tool to facilitate that.

However, they are not magical. You can’t hand them out and expect all the answers. Like any tool, they are most beneficial when used strategically.

In this issue, we show you how to use personality type to build high-functioning teams that bond well.

There has been a continuous outpouring of love for our Omnia First Friday Fundamentals series. In our last session, we had a productive discussion on how to determine the natural job behaviors needed to hire A-players and a deep dive into our custom and target scores.

We’re also excited for the launch of our first Recharge Your Talent Strategy in 2022 – Decoding Critical Talent Selection & Development Trends report. We’d like to thank all the participants who made this extensive analysis possible. We encourage you to download and use those actionable talent strategies to build solid teams and a human-centric culture.

Personality assessments can paint a full picture of how to transform your teams. So whether you’re just getting off the ground with a single team or already have hundreds of teams, keep these assessments in your arsenal and use them wisely to boost your growth and establish an organizational culture of self-awareness.

See you next month!

To achieve solid team dynamics, you must invest in your team, equip them with the tools they need to navigate through conflicts and challenges and empower them to thrive.
