Looking for Employee Performance Answers?
We Give You ANSWERS to the Key Questions You Really Need to Ask!
- Can this Person DO the Job?
- Will this Person DO the Job?
- Will this Person Fit with Our Company Culture and be Compatible with Our Manager?
Using one assessment could reveal the answer to one or two of these questions. But you would only see the partial picture. Multiple sciences progressively reveal more of the entire person — what they do, how they do it and why they do the things they do. We also embrace a philosophy that measures both the presence and absence of behavior, and acceptance and avoidance. We use a data pool of millions of individuals collected over several decades to further refine our assessments.
Tools to Grow Your People and Your Business
Behaviors (DISC)
Measured in four proportions (Dominance, Influence, Steadiness and Compliance), Behaviors/DISC reveal how an individual will perform, including how they prefer to communicate, what he or she will bring to a team, his or her ideal environment and possible limitations he or she may face. Our behavioral research suggests that the most effective people are those who understand themselves, both their strengths and weaknesses, so they can develop strategies to meet the demands of their environment. Sygmia assessments measuring Behaviors/DISC examine an individual’s dominance, influence, steadiness and compliance, revealing the ways in which one responds to the following:
- Problems and Challenges
- Influencing Others
- Pace of Environment
- Rules and Procedures
Motivators (Values)
Measuring the core of Motivation. Just as the DISC assessment gives insight into “how” someone will behave, the Motivators assessment explains “why.” Motivators are the reasons we want to act. They help people to better understand their value hierarchy or belief system. They filter and guide decisions specifically toward the results that reflect them, and they combine uniquely for each person to influence priorities and decision making. Motivators reveal our viewpoint, our mindset, and our paradigm of thought.
- Aesthetic is a drive for balance, harmony, and form.
- Economic is a drive for return on investment (including time, money, resources).
- Individualistic is a drive to stand out as independent and unique.
- Power is a drive to be in control or have influence.
- Altruistic is a drive to help others at the expense of self.
- Regulatory is a drive to establish order, routine, and structure.
- Theoretical is the drive for knowledge, learning, and understanding.
Critical Thinking (HVP)
Critical Thinking is assessed using three dimensions of thought, analyzing both world and self-views:
- Intrinsic (Feeling)
- Extrinsic (Doing)
- Systemic (Thinking)
Acumen, or a person’s keenness and depth of perception, will identify how a person thinks. Critical Thinking indicators can be considered a lens that people use to filter information: do they process events from a people standpoint, a task standpoint or a system standpoint?
A person’s Acumen, or their clarity or understanding of a situation, could be directly related to their performance. Our assessments measuring Acumen examine the six dimensions:
- Understanding Others
- Practical Thinking
- Systems Judgment
- Sense of Self
- Role Awareness
- Self Direction
Emotional Intelligence (EQ)
Emotional Intelligence is an individual’s ability to sense, understand and effectively apply the power and acumen of emotions to facilitate high levels of collaboration and productivity. Our research indicates that successful leaders and superior performers have well developed EQ skills. This enables them to work well with a wide variety of people and respond effectively to the rapidly changing conditions in the business world. EQ examines five key areas pertaining to intrapersonal and interpersonal relations:
- Self Awareness
- Self Regulation
- Motivation
- Social Awareness
- Social Regulation
