The Kolbe TeamSuccess™ Workshop
 
"Using the Kolbe System has made the difference between a mediocre management team - and one that works together and wins all the time."

Richard Weden,

description This workshop introduces a way to help find good ‘people’ and create teams and organizations that provide the highest probability of success. In other words, “better their best”. QPC’s Certified Kolbe Specialist, Kristin Arnold, introduces you to the Kolbe Index, a tool to inventory the creative energy on project teams.

Historically businesses use assessment tools that measure IQ or personality to select, train, and manage people. Unlike these tools, the Kolbe measures the individual’s instinctive approach, -that ‘gut feeling’ approach to creative problem solving.

Our workshop shows you how to discover and use the instinctive talents that we all have in varying degrees. We explore how to use those talents to encourage behaviors that build on individual strengths and take advantage of individual differences while achieving the team and company goals. Ultimately that means improved overall team performance, job satisfaction and increased productivity.
 
 
learning objectives
  • To understand the Kolbe Indices and vocabulary with focus on the distinctions of the 4 modalities of human instinct. (Instinct to probe, pattern, innovate and demonstrate)
  • To enable participants to understand their own MO -measures of the conative dimension of the mind.
  • Learn how to use instinctive talents consistently and effectively to position people in the best jobs, reduce stress, improve communication.
  • To enable participants to understand how the 4 modalities fit into the workings of an organization and team.
