Herman Brain Dominance Instrument®(HBDI)

The HBDI profile is an assessment tool containing 120-questions that provides users with an in-depth understanding of their thinking preferences.  It is the basis of all learning and training modules of  Herrmann International because communication is the key, and the HBDI® teaches you how to communicate with others who think the same as you and who think differently than you. http://www.hbdi.com/home/index.cfm

Quality Leadership Profile (QLP)

The QLP is a confidential leadership survey designed for use in the education/knowledge sector. The survey enables leaders (referred to as "self" in the survey) to seek feedback on their leadership strengths and development needs.

The QLP employs a "360 degree" survey method which compares self-perceptions of leadership practices with the perceptions of peers, staff and supervisors. This method delivers a wide array of information from a range of stakeholders, and provides a firm basis for individual leadership development.  http://www.adm.monash.edu.au/human-resources/leadership-development/360-feeback-tool.html

Emotional Capital Inventory (ECi)

The ECi is a short profiling tool that measures your level of personal emotional capital quickly and accurately. In only 10 minutes the ECi delivers a Report of your scores on the ten leadership competencies that research has identified as characteristic of outstanding leaders - and described in Martyn Newman's book Emotional Capitalists - The New Leaders. The ECi allows you to chose from two reports - a 4-page Summary Report or an 19-page Emotional Capital Report. http://www.rochemartin.com/assessments/eci/index.php

Fundamental Interpersonal Relations Orientation (FIRO-B)

The FIRO-B instrument assesses your interpersonal needs and the impact of your behaviour in the workplace. Three needs are measured in two dimensions: "expressed" behaviour (how much we initiate behaviour) and "wanted" behaviour (how much we prefer others to initiate behaviour). The FIRO-B reports enable you to manage your behaviour, recognize stagnation and conflict and to find possible solutions, and increase productivity through awareness of interpersonal dynamics at work. https://www.cpp.com/pdfs/FIRO-B_Product_Data_Sheet.pdf

Myer Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)

The purpose of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator is to make the theory of psychological types described by C. G. Jung (1921/1971) understandable and useful in people's lives. The essence of the theory is that much seemingly random variation in behaviour is actually quite orderly and consistent, being due to basic differences in the way individuals prefer to use their perception and judgment. The MBTI instrument is based on Jung's ideas about perception and judgment, and the attitudes in which these are used in different types of people. The aim of the MBTI instrument is to identify, from self self-report of easily recognized reactions, the basic preferences of people in regard to perception and judgment, so that the effects of each preference, singly and in combination, can be established by research and put into practical use. http://www.myersbriggs.org/
