What is The Self-Development Survey?
The Self-Development Survey is an on-line self-assessment tool that helps employees better understand their underlying temperament or behavior patterns - and use this information to become more effective in their current role or to prepare for new challenges.
How is it used?
The Self-Development Survey generates a comprehensive, self-directed report that is also an ideal coaching tool. It can be used for any of the following:
- Greater self-awareness
- Increasing personal effectiveness
- Leadership development
- Career counseling
What are the benefits?
Most of today's leaders cite employee retention and development as key to their company's success. Yet the amount of time and expense that it takes to develop and implement retention and leadership development programs can be prohibitive.
The Self-Development Survey is cost-effective and easy to administer. It provides valuable insights and an easy-to-understand Action Plan that can be implemented immediately.
How do I get the results?
Through our web-based assessment program, McQuaig On-Line®, you or the participating employee, get an extensive report complete with Personal Action Plan worksheets. Your employee's coach/manager may opt to de-brief and discuss next steps. As well, individual employees (or your entire team) can attend our seminar, Maximizing Your Personal Effectiveness.
The McQuaig Word Survey®
What is The Word Survey? The Word Survey is an on-line self-assessment technique that measures an individual's underlying temperament or behavior patterns – as well as his/her morale and how the individual is adjusting to the job.
How is it used?
Use The Word Survey to:
- Diagnose the natural style of behavior of current employees, including their leadership style and management potential
- Motivate and coach the right people
- Retain top performers by training and counseling more effectively
- Determine your employee's "hot buttons" and how each employee will fit into your team
What are the benefits?
- Managing with Insight: A common mistake that most of us make is that we manage people as we would like to be managed, as opposed to how they would like to be managed. Understanding the temperament of your people means understanding what motivates them, how they learn and how they behave in a team environment. Knowing these things, you are more able to keep them stimulated, satisfied and achieving their maximum potential.
- Build Cohesive Teams: Understanding the temperaments of your team members helps you to build a balanced, compatible team—and to defuse conflicts among team members.
Who fills out The Word Survey?
Each individual completes their own Survey on-line. Usually, this takes no more than twenty minutes.
