Who's Who on YOUR Team?
The Integrity and Values Profiling System is the result of extensive research into leadership and integrity in Australia. In a world first, the developers established what leaders wanted to know about their people, how they can effectively manage and develop them and how to make good recruitment decisions based on solid verifiable data.
Leadership teams need to be able to hold each other Accountable and take Responsibility for the results they produce as a whole.
In the example shown here (click the graphic at right to open up a high-quality PDF document) you will note this 5-person team is characterised by one person to whom the truth is very important, by a second who is ambivalent and by three others where the truth is an optional extra depending on what that truth is, who needs / wants to know and how urgent or important the matter is.
There is one person who is very Responsible and Accountable. This same person is also the one for whom Truth is extremely important. This person is most likely very unhappy / frustrated working with people who cannot hold themselves responsible. One member of this group can hold others accountable but will not be held responsible if things do not go right. That is to say they can point the finger at the ones who did not perform but not be able to see their own part in the mess up.
Three members of this team are highly Loyal and will support the company by doing what needs to be done. The other two will look after their own best interests, primarily by doing what it suits them.
Where the Self Awareness score is low people cannot see the impact of their other low scores on the people around them.
There is only one person on this team who has the capacity to make their Values and Attitudes evident and present in their relationship with others and with themselves. For the others on this team there is a wide gap between who they say are, and how they actually behave, which is what other people see. These individuals are continually frustrated with and by each other.
Unless this team is willing to do some hard yards in developing themselves as leaders the organisation will not be able to function at its best or make the profits that they are looking for.
As a manager, you would be very hard pressed to make a determination about each of these players. Sure, you may have great intuition which gives rise to "gut feel" about one person or another.
What you need is empirical, valid data to support what you may already know. And to tell you what you might be missing. That data is provided quickly and simply by the Integrity & Values profile tool, and with feedback from an ASVP consultant, you will soon gain insight into how your people behave and interact with blistering clarity.
It's like a picture window that looks deep into the psyche of your staff. Acting on the information it provides will add enormous value to your organisation. Guaranteed.
Using the Integrity Profiling System when assessing team dynamics:
Where the whole team has been assessed it is possible to make statements about the nature of the conversations that are being avoided and the consequent cost to the business or organisation. The power of a team Integrity Profile allows the leaders to be honest about their shortcomings within a supportive framework and to take appropriate actions to correct.
