Behavioral Hierarchy – this section identifies HOW a person prefers to behave or get their needs met in the world. When the behavior needed in the job matches a person’s preferred behavioral style, the potential for success increases and the potential for job stress decreases.

Workplace Motivators - this section identifies WHY a person does what they do. It measures the values/motivators of a person -- what he or she is passionate about and what moves them to action. Motivators help people prioritize their decision-making. People who are intrinsically motivated by their job feel more engaged in and personally rewarded by their work.

Personal Skills – this section encompasses the “soft skills” or emotional intelligence factors that are needed for success in organizations. It is a picture of the intrinsic talents, capabilities, or attributes a person possesses. It is a measure of WHAT talents the candidate will bring to a specific job.

keeping and systematic planning. Describe the job. Describe your level of satisfaction with that job. What was your level of success?

Job John

A person’s observable behavioral style is a description of HOW he or she chooses to get his or her needs met in the world. A person’s observable behavior is a combination of all four of these factors. This assessment says nothing about a person’s intelligence, background, experience, or education. It is not a “personality” test. It is an accurate and valid test of behavior. The four factors are combined in various ways to create the eight job-related behaviors listed in the report.

Behavioral Hierarchy – HOW?

Analysis of facts and data, accurate safety and security, procedures to follow, high quality standards, attention to details

Efficient methodology, task oriented, analytical, creative and original thinker

Results oriented, firm, quick decisions expedites action, change agent bold, direct

Competitive, results thru people, persuasive, enthusiastic, optimistic, Change agent

People contact,optimistic, trusting, “selling” Self confidentTeam Player, Cooperative,

Serves and supports others, Assistance to customers

Logical thinking Systematic routine Persistent and steady Relaxed pace Accommodating

Diplomatic, guidelines to follow, routine work, logical, Self-Disciplined

Values are “hidden motivators,” the reasons WHY a person moves to action. A person will be most interested in and passionate about anything that engages his or her top values. A person can be uninterested in or antagonistic to things that trigger his or her bottom values. When a job’s motivators overlap with the top values of the person doing the job, that overlap creates an intrinsic motivation for the person to do excellent work.

Workplace Motivators/Personal Interests – WHY?

John’s top 2 values are Individualistic and Social. IND is a good match for the job. However, this job does not reward the drive to help others. The job’s top 2 motivators are UTI and TRA. In these two areas, Nick is below the national average and would not be a good fit for this job.

This is a ranking of 23 key job attributes or personal talents that are needed for success in today’s organizations. They tell us WHAT a person can do naturally well. When a person can bring his or her natural talents to bear on the job at hand, he or she is more likely to be successful in that job and be intrinsically motivated to excel. If a person does not have natural talent for a particular area it does not mean he or she cannot do that portion of the job. It does mean that portion of the job will not seem particularly easy or “natural” for that person and they will tend to shy away from that part of the job.

Personal Talents and Attributes – WHAT?

John’s personal talents are an above average match for the job. He is at or above average on 5 of the 7 attributes. If hired, he will need onboard coaching in the areas of accountability for others and goal achievement. These areas will not come as easy to him as other parts of the job.
