Understanding Human Behaviour: The Psychometric Approach

Training Outline

Personality is what’s on the inside; behaviour is what comes out and it affects – and is affected by – those around us.

Understanding human behaviour allows us to focus on the words/actions which shape our interactions with others, develop effective human skills and provide a framework for predicting behaviour.

In this one-day session, participants will have taken the first step in understanding themselves and their behavioural tendencies/how to manage same. In addition and for managers/senior staff, the session provides a platform for understanding themselves/how to manage others productively in different circumstances and the ever changing social and environmental conditions.

This is an assessment-based (DiSC®) learning experience that helps people reconnect to themselves and others by embracing their diverse strengths and behaviour styles; (before the training date, each participant will take an online assessment that immediately creates a personalised DiSC® profile).

When an organisation understands its staff via their behavioural profiles, it can set better goals and get its workforce to function at peak efficiency.
