Exploring Personality

Find out how to profile personality

Personality can be up to seven times more predictive of success than intellect and ability. Furthermore, whether personality changes or not, the emerging field of Emotional Intelligence indicates that success is not so much about ‘what you’ve got’ but ‘how you use it’. And this relies on questionnaires being able to fire up the process of self-understanding, as well as identifying key personality drivers, preferred team roles, leadership style and so on.

When introduced in the right place at the right time, personality questionnaires add significantly to talent identification in selection scenarios, or highlighting potential in development activities.

Better working relationships

Imagine applying a series of filters that clarify the often complex nature of people’s character. Used well, they provide valuable insight and a useful summary from which significant implications for development can be drawn. Taking care to avoid over-simplification, they serve multiple purposes such as finding the right role, charting the appropriate development path or helping working groups to be more effective. A great benefit often achieved is the turning of differences between people from being a frustration to a valued resource. This is fundamental to building stronger relationships and more collaborative teams.

Team Focus runs the widest range of qualifying courses in personality questionnaires in the UK. Our Foundation Course in Personality provides a sound understanding of personality, experience of a variety of questionnaires and the basis for making an informed choice about the most appropriate instruments in which to become a registered practitioner. It also starts you on the road to the first British Psychological Society (BPS) qualification in personality assessment, the Intermediate Level B Certificate.

Note: The Foundation Course in Personality together with the BPS Level A qualification are pre-requisites for obtaining the BPS Level B Intermediate Certificate and for registering to use the 15FQ+™ and NEO PI-R™ questionnaires, but are optional for becoming registered users of the TDI^®, FIRO^® or Hogan^® questionnaires.
