The VIP Solution


Employee Consulting - personality

“Temperament is the iron wire on which beads are strung.”

Nothing could be worse than to be in a career field that is a distinct mismatch for your personality.  Identifying specific personality characteristics can serve as a filter through which their values and interests are poured.  This allows for a greater chance of “person-position fit.”

 
PERSONALITY back>>
Awareness of one’s values and interests helps to narrow career and occupational directions. They also function to predict organizational fit and job satisfaction. However, without consideration of an individual’s workplace personality traits, true career success and occupational fit might never be fully realized. The VIP Solution utilizes the 16PF (5th Edition) to scientifically assess work-oriented personality traits. The Career Development Report (16PF) can help you to understand more about yourself and how your unique personality strengths function to enhance career success.

The 16PF Career Development Report offers many unique features:
•Empirically identifies occupational personality traits – strengths and areas of development
Founded on 35 years of research and consulting experience of organizational and management professionals
•Predicts career activity, career field and occupational interest scores.
•Used for career direction and career validation – for both individual and organization
•Utilized for employee selection, coaching, outplacement and leadership development
•Norm sample is 10,261 (50% male, 50% female), ages 16-82.
•No invasive or intrusive items
•No adverse impact
•Fully Internet Enabled

Our clients receive a complete 16PF Career Development Report. The 32-page detailed report presents your career personality traits and provides the following information:
•Popular scores which include Predicted Career Activity Scores for 7 broad interest areas (Influencing, Organizing, Creating, Helping, Analyzing, Producing, and Venturing) and 27 career fields, along with Leadership/ Subordinate Role Patterns and Occupational Interests.
•Well-organized, easy to understand, highly intuitive results presentation. Gives detailed text descriptions of:
      o Problem-Solving Resources
      o Patterns for Coping with Stressful Conditions
      o Interpersonal Interaction Styles
      o Organizational Role and Work-Setting Preferences
      o Career Activity Interests
      o Specific Career Field and Occupational Interests
      o Self-Improvement/Development Areas
•Detailed questionnaire presented in workbook format to facilitate independent career direction action steps.

* Remember, no one assessment can tell you what career or organizational direction to pursue. Only you can make that decision. You should consider your 16PF results in combination with other sources of career information, including detailed descriptions of occupations, additional assessments, and use of career specialists.
