SEMINARS & TRAINING

IHD Corporation Certification Seminar - DISC II & Achiever

 

Hiring mistakes are made every day because hiring professionals have poor interviewing skills or inadequate tools to help them. The DISC II and Achiever, when used as a part of the hiring system, reduce turnover and insure the quality of new hires.

 

The Certification Seminar consists of workshops and discussions on the DISC II assessment and helps enhance your understanding of the temperament concept of behavior. An initial overview is given of the four basic temperaments and temperament blend. Plotting point dynamics are covered, as well as how to read the "whole picture" of all three graphs and verify a person's temperament pattern.

 

The Achiever workshop covers the personality profiles used in conjunction with the temperament profile (DISC II) to gather more detailed and specific information on the individual, as well as identify “adaptive” behavior. The purpose of this workshop is to increase your training in interpreting The Achiever as well as using it in management. The more versed you are in the correlations of different personality dimensions, the more valuable you will find the written reports and other IHD Corporation tools you use in hiring and developing your people.

 

Also covered are correlations between both assessments that provide a deeper understanding of how to use the profiles in creating "models" or “benchmarks” for different positions within the organization.

UNDERSTANDING TEMPERAMENTS

 

This seminar is designed to increase productivity by increasing cooperation and decreasing tension in the workplace. A client of many years once said that he "hires people for what they can do and fires them for who they are." The relationship factor is a major key to organizational harmony and productivity. Attendees gain an understanding of the fundamental differences in people and reveals what drives them and how best to work with them. Many managers learn that their approach has been counter-productive in motivating some of their direct reports.
