    This Innermetrix ADVanced Insights Profile combines the best of three world-class
    profiles. The Attribute Index measures how you think and make decisions. The Values
    Index measures your motivational style and drivers and the DISC Index measures your
    preferred Behavioral style. Together they create WHAT, WHY and HOW (i.e., What
    natural talents do you have, Why are you motivated to use them and How do you prefer
    to use them.)

Introduction to the DISC Index

About This Report


Research conducted by Innermetrix shows that the most successful people share the common
trait of self-awareness. They recognize the situations that will make them successful, and this
makes it easy for them to find ways of achieving objectives that fit their behavioral style. They
also understand their limitations and where they are not effective and this helps them understand
where not to go or how not to be as well. Those who understand their natural behavioral
preferences are far more likely to pursue the right opportunities, in the right way, at the right
time, and get the results they desire.


This report measures four dimensions of your behavioral style. They are:
  • Decisive — your preference for problem solving and getting results
  • Interactive — your preference for interacting with others and showing emotion
  • Stability — your preference for pacing, persistence and steadiness
  • Cautious — your preference for procedures, standards and protocols




                                                                                                    Dave Gregory
This report includes:


  • The Elements of DISC — Educational background behind the profile, the science and the
    four dimensions of behavior
  • The DISC Dimensions — A closer look at each of your four behavioral dimensions
  • Style Summary — A comparison of your natural and adaptive behavioral styles
  • Behavioral Strengths — A detailed strengths-based description of your overall behavioral
    style
  • Communication — Tips on how you like to communicate and be communicated with
  • Ideal Job Climate — Your ideal work environment
  • Effectiveness — Insights into how you can be more effective by understanding your
    behavior

Four Components of Behavior

                                The Elements of the DISC-Index


This DISC-Index report is unique in the marketplace for a number of reasons. You just completed
the first ever click & drag DISC instrument on the market. This was constructed in a precise
manner to allow for ease of responses, even in the midst of many difficult decisions. This
intuitive interface allows you to focus on your answers, not the process.


Also, unlike other DISC instruments, this instrument allows you to rank all four items instead.
As a result, this instrument produces zero waste in responses. Some instruments ask you to
choose two items out of four, and leave two items blank. Those instruments have a 50% waste
of terms, and do not provide for an efficient response process. The DISC Index instrument
eliminates that response problem.


Another unique aspect of this DISC-Index report is that we present the DISC aspects of your
behavior both as separate entities and as a dynamic combination of traits. This report presents




                                                                                                     Dave Gregory
the first time that each of the DISC elements are separated and developed as pure entities of
themselves. This can serve as an important learning tool as you explore the deeper aspects
of DISC. Your unique pattern of DISC traits is developed through the context of this report.
Additionally, the following four pages will be devoted to exploring your DISC scores as separate
components within the unique combination of traits that you exhibit.


A comment on contradictions: You may read some areas of this report that may contradict
other text. This is due to the fact that many of us show contradictory behaviors in the normal
course of our daily operations. Each of us are at times talkative and other times more reflective,
depending on how we are adapting our behavior. The expression of these contradictions is a
demonstration of the sensitivity of this instrument to determine these subtle differences in our
natural and adaptive style.

Four Components of Behavior
                                                   Decisive

                       Your approach to problem-solving and obtaining results

      The D in DISC represents Decisiveness. Your score on this scale, represented below, shows
      your location on the D spectrum based on the pattern of your responses. A high score doesn't
      mean good, and a low score doesn't mean bad, as this is a spectrum or continuum of behavioral
      traits. For example:

      Higher D —
       Tend to solve new problems very quickly and assertively. They take an active and direct
       approach to obtaining results. The key here is new problems such as those that are
       unprecedented or haven't happened before. There may also be an element of risk in taking
       the wrong approach or developing an incorrect solution, but those with a High D score are
       willing to take those risks, even if they may be incorrect.

      Lower D —
       Tend to solve new problems in a more deliberate, controlled, and organized manner. Again,
       the key here is new and unprecedented problems. The Lower D style will solve routine




                                                                                                         Dave Gregory
       problems very quickly because the outcomes are already known. But, when the outcomes
       are unknown and the problem is an uncertain one, the Lower D style will approach the new
       problem in a calculated and deliberate manner by thinking things through very carefully before
       acting.


                                            Your score shows a high average score on the 'D' spectrum.

                                            • You can become critical of others who don't measure up

 50                           49            • You like challenging assignments that require you to
                                              work out of your comfort zone.
 40
                                            • You're moderately self-reliant in determining new
 30                                           directions or deciding on change.

Four Components of Behavior
                                                  Interactive

                   Your approach to interacting with people and display of emotions.

      The I in DISC represents Interactive. Your score on this scale represented below shows your
      location on the I spectrum based on the pattern of your responses. A high score doesn't mean
      good, and a low score doesn't mean bad, as this is a spectrum or continuum of behavioral
      traits. For example:

      Higher I —
       Tend to meet new people in an outgoing, gregarious, and socially assertive manner. The key
       here is new people whom one hasn't met before. Many other styles are talkative, but more
       so with people that they've known for some time. The Higher I scores are talkative, interactive
       and open even with people whom they have just initially met. People scoring in this range
       may also be a bit impulsive. Generally speaking, those with the Higher I scores are generally
       talkative and outgoing.

      Lower I —
       Tend to meet new people in a more controlled, quiet and reserved manner. Here's where the




                                                                                                         Dave Gregory
       key word "new people" enters the equation. Those with Lower I scores are talkative with their
       friends and close associates, but tend to be more reserved with people they've just recently
       met. They tend to place a premium on the control of emotions, and approach new relationships
       with a more reflective approach than an emotional one.


                                            Your score shows a high average score on the 'I' spectrum.

                          Your approach to the pace of the work environment

      The S in DISC represents Stabilizing. Your score on this scale represented below shows your
      location on the S spectrum based on the pattern of your responses. A high score doesn't mean
      good, and a low score doesn't mean bad, as this is a spectrum or continuum of behavioral
      traits. For example:

      Higher S —
       Tend to prefer a more controlled, deliberative and predictable environment. They place a
       premium on security of a work situation and disciplined behavior. They also tend to show a
       sense of loyalty to a team or organization, and as a result, may have a greater longevity or
       tenure in a position than some other styles. They have an excellent listening style and are
       very patient coaches and teachers for others on the team.

      Lower S —
       Tend to prefer a more flexible, dynamic, unstructured work environment. They value freedom
       of expression and the ability to change quickly from one activity to another. They tend to

       become bored with the same routine that brings security to the Higher S traits. As a result,
       they will seek opportunities and outlets for their high sense of urgency and high activity levels,
       as they have a preference for spontaneity.

       they respect. They like things to be done the right way according to the operating manual.
       "Rules are made to be followed" is an appropriate motto for those with higher C scores. They
       have some of the highest quality control interests of any of the styles and frequently wish
       others would do the same.

        Lower C —

Natural Style Pattern Overview

Natural Style Pattern:

Your natural style is the way you tend to behave when you aren't thinking about it. This is where

you are most comfortable (natural). This is also the style you will revert back to when under

stress or moving too quickly to be consciously thinking about modifying your behavior. Finally,

this is the style you should seek to be true to in your daily roles. Being natural will return better

results with less effort and stress. The following statements are true to just your unique natural

style:



  • You may tend to prefer to socialize with a rather small group of associates and build deeper

    relationships than have shallow relationships with a wide number of people.

  • Shares a basic behavioral desire to help and serve others in a sincere and professional

    way to help them grow.




                                                                                                        Dave Gregory
  • Prefers maintaining the status quo rather than making changes just for the sake of

    change.

  • As a leader or member of a project team, you may show a deliberate, dispassionate, and

    serious approach to solving problems.

  • You show extremely high levels of patience in working with others.

  • Shows a high degree of internal loyalty to people, projects, and ideals in the

    organization.

  • You may tend to say 'yes' more than 'no' when asked to help out with a colleague's project

    or problem. That's okay, but it sometimes leads to over-commitment.

  • You tend to be friendly and easygoing without being an extremist.

Adaptive Style Pattern Overview

Adaptive Style Pattern:

This is the style of behavior you adapt to when you are conscious of your own behavior, when

you feel you are being observed or whenever you are trying to better fit a situation. This is not

a natural style for you, but still one of your two styles none-the-less. In other words, it is the

way you feel you "should" behave when thinking about it. The statements below are specific

to your individual Adaptive style:



  • You show a high trust level in the ability of others on the team to carry out their responsibilities

    and commitments.

  • You have the ability to handle pressing problems in a casual manner, but still get the

    problem solved.

    profession. This can be of enormous benefit to the team or organization as additional

    contacts become necessary.

  • You show confidence in your ability to motivate and persuade others into the behaviors

    required for the desired outcome of the project.

  • You want to be known as very people oriented. You like people, and want to be liked in

    return.

  • You prefer a favorable social environment rather than an antagonistic one, and will work

    to maintain the positive environment.

  • You show the ability to speak to audiences and motivate others with poise, confidence,

    and excellent verbal skills.

  • You are motivated by promoting ideas and generating enthusiasm in others.

Areas for Continual Improvement

Along with strengths, all behavioral styles come with areas that could become weaknesses -

if depended upon or not acknowledged. The trick is not to manufacture a weakness in the first

place by depending on these things.



Here are a few items that could become problematic for you if not acknowledged or known.

Your awareness of the potentials below is your best step in making sure they remain only

potential problems. Due to your behavioral style, you may tend to:



  • May provide a false sense of buy-in to others on the team, but may then resist passive-

    aggressively.

  • May need assistance in beginning new procedures, primarily because of not wanting to

    make mistakes.




                                                                                                Dave Gregory
  • May take some criticism personally, even though it was directed at a work process.

  • When sudden change is suggested, may become indecisive when pressured.

  • May try to hang on too much to current or past procedures, especially when faced with

    impending change.

  • May hold back and wait for others to initiate an idea or process.

  • Some may perceive a lower sense of urgency to get things done. That may come from a

    desire not to make sudden changes.

  • May need help in prioritizing. Under pressure all items may be ranked as most

    important.

Introduction to the Values Index

About This Report



Research conducted by Innermetrix shows that the most successful people share the common

trait of self-awareness. They recognize the situations that will make them successful, and

this makes it easy for them to find ways of achieving objectives that resonate with their

motivations. They also understand their limitations and where they are not effective and this

helps them understand what does not inspire them or what will not motivate them to succeed.

Those who understand their natural motivators better are far more likely to pursue the right

opportunities, for the right reasons, and get the results they desire.



This report measures seven dimensions of motivation. They are:

  • Aesthetic - a drive for balance, harmony and form.




                                                                                                 Dave Gregory
  • Economic - a drive for economic or practical returns.

  • Individualistic - a drive to stand out as independent and unique.

  • Political - a drive to be in control or have influence.

  • Altruist - a drive for humanitarian efforts or to help others altruistically.

  • Regulatory - a drive to establish order, routine and structure.

  • Theoretical - a drive for knowledge, learning and understanding.

Seven Dimensions of Value and Motivation

                              The Elements of the Values Index



This Values Index is unique in the marketplace in that it examines seven independent and

unique aspects of value or motivation. Most other values instruments only examine six

dimensions of value by combining the Individualistic and Political into one dimension. The

Values Index remains true to the original works and models of two of the most significant

researchers in this field, thus delivering to you a profile that truly helps you understand your

own unique motivations and drivers.



Also, the Values Index is the first to use a click & drag approach to rank the various statements

in the instrument, which makes taking the instrument more intuitive, natural and in the end

you can actually create the order you see in your mind on the screen.




                                                                                                     Dave Gregory
Finally, the Values Index instrument contains the most contemporary list of statements to

make your choices more relevant to your life today, which helps ensure the most accurate

results possible.

Seven Dimensions of Value and Motivation

                              A closer look at the seven dimensions



            Values help influence behavior and action and can be considered
            somewhat of a hidden motivation because they are not readily
            observable. Understanding your values helps to tell you why you prefer
            to do what you do.
            It is vital for superior performance to ensure that your motivations are
            satisfied by what you do. This drives your passion, reduces fatigue,
            inspires you and increases drive.




                                                                                            Dave Gregory

Patterns Overview

Over fifty years of scientific research has revealed that there are three distinct styles of decision-making. Each
of us can make decisions in these three ways, but we tend to develop a preference for one more than the other
two. This preference becomes a subconscious force, affecting the decisions we make on a daily basis and
shaping how we perceive the world around us and ourselves.

The three decisional styles are the personal, the practical, and the analytical. These dimensions can be examined
in the form of patterns based on two distinct factors unique to axiology.

The Personal Style: People with a preference for this style of making decisions tend to see the world from a
personal point of view, or with concern for the individuals involved. They see people in a unique, individual light
and are more concerned about others than the results and theory. This involves a personal involvement with,
concentration on, or investment in people. To this style, the world is filled with people needing to be understood.

The Practical Style: People with a preference for this style of making decisions tend to see things in very practical,
no nonsense, real-world, task oriented manner. They are more concerned with results than others and theory.
They see people in comparative ways as they relate to others. To this style, the world is an objective waiting
to be achieved.

The Analytical Style: People with a preference for this style of making decisions tend to see the world from a
theoretical perspective, more in an abstract way than a concrete one. They see people as part of a system
and tend to think in very black and white terms. They are more concerned with thinking about things, and
analysis than actual results or personal concerns of others. To this style, the world is a problem to be explored
and solved.




                                                                                                                          Dave Gregory
To some extent we are all capable of making all three kinds of decisions, but our preference tends to be for
one more than the other two. Here's a simple example of the three in contrast to each other. One of each style
are sitting around a table trying to figure out what to do. While the Personal style is focused on the needs of
the workers involved and how best to utilize their talents, the Practical doesn't really care as much about the
personal needs, or if it is done right, he just wants to get it done. Finally there is the Analytical who sees no
reason to worry about the people involved or even getting it done if it isn't going to be done correctly.

We all have different balances of these three styles; that's what makes our decisions and actions different from
each other's. These ways of making decisions, and how we use them, are at the core of who we are. They are
behind our preferences, our strengths, and our weaknesses. In the following pages you will find a list of capacities
which are the result of your unique combination of these three decisional styles. It is this understanding of your
individual strengths and weaknesses that will enable you to affect change in your life and achieve greater
personal success. It is only by first understanding something that we are then able to change it.

Balanced I=E=S (H)

External Decision Making Pattern Summary

You are very well developed in all three dimensions of thought (People, Tasks and Systems) and with equal
proportion. You can be very competent in all three dimensions of value from schematic thinking, to practicality
to valuing others. You appreciate and possess equal strengths in: systems, rules, structure, concrete
organization, detailed planning, and people skills.
You are a versatile, quick learner in all of these areas. This can also lead to your becoming easily bored or
anxious in positions that require excessive over or under focus on any one dimension of thought by itself, to
the exclusion of the others (e.g., door to door sales actually requires less than excellent empathy). Overall
development levels in all three dimensions are equal and all are highly developed. Level of development speaks
to your ability t"s" a specific dimension. The more clearly we see a dimension of thought, the more able we are
to use it; therefore the better we are at it.

Maximizers

Versatility in dealing with people, performance or systems equally
Quick learning ability in a wide variety of business areas
Stability, dependability

Professional E>I>S

Internal Decision Making Pattern Summary

You define yourself more in terms of your work or professional role than you do for who you are as a person
internally. The result is that you are a very hard worker who places a lot of value on what you do. You are very
driven to succeed in whatever role you fill. Your self-esteem is a little lower due to you basing your self worth
on "what" you do more than "who" you are. All of us are more than just jobs, but this is your primary basis for
evaluating yourself as a person. You are also unclear as to the actual steps you should be taking to accomplish
your role. Not that the role itself is in question, but more that the specific way you fulfill it might be. This can
be caused by recent changes in "how" you carry out your role (e.g., new technology, new marketing campaign,
etc.). For whatever reason you are unclear as to the internal guides and rules that you feel you need to follow
in order to be successful in a given role. Your objective is quite clear, but the path you should take to reach
that objective remains a little unclear at this time. You value the tasks dimension above all others and your
level of development in this dimension is high. You value the people dimension second most with moderate
development in this dimension and the Systems dimension is the least clear to you with low levels of development
at this time. Level of development speaks to your ability to "see" a specific dimension. The more clearly we
see a dimension of thought, the more able we are to use it; therefore the better we are at it.

Maximizers

Professional or social role identification; role satisfaction in the present.

Minimizers

Questions about future direction and the personal rules that will govern the actions to get there.

  • 1. ADVanced Insights Profile WHAT WHY HOW Dave Gregory January 11, 2011 This Innermetrix ADVanced Insights Profile combines the best of three world-class profiles. The Attribute Index measures how you think and make decisions. The Values Index measures your motivational style and drivers and the DISC Index measures your preferred Behavioral style. Together they create WHAT, WHY and HOW (i.e., What natural talents do you have, Why are you motivated to use them and How do you prefer to use them.)

  • 7. Introduction to the DISC Index About This Report Research conducted by Innermetrix shows that the most successful people share the common trait of self-awareness. They recognize the situations that will make them successful, and this makes it easy for them to find ways of achieving objectives that fit their behavioral style. They also understand their limitations and where they are not effective and this helps them understand where not to go or how not to be as well. Those who understand their natural behavioral preferences are far more likely to pursue the right opportunities, in the right way, at the right time, and get the results they desire. This report measures four dimensions of your behavioral style. They are: • Decisive — your preference for problem solving and getting results • Interactive — your preference for interacting with others and showing emotion • Stability — your preference for pacing, persistence and steadiness • Cautious — your preference for procedures, standards and protocols Dave Gregory This report includes: • The Elements of DISC — Educational background behind the profile, the science and the four dimensions of behavior • The DISC Dimensions — A closer look at each of your four behavioral dimensions • Style Summary — A comparison of your natural and adaptive behavioral styles • Behavioral Strengths — A detailed strengths-based description of your overall behavioral style • Communication — Tips on how you like to communicate and be communicated with • Ideal Job Climate — Your ideal work environment • Effectiveness — Insights into how you can be more effective by understanding your behavior • Behavioral Motivations — Ways to ensure your environment is motivational • Continual Improvement — Areas where you can focus on improving • Training & Learning Style — Your preferred means of sharing and receiving styles • Relevance Section — Making the information real and pertinent to you • Success Connection — Connecting your style to your own life © 2010 Copyright Innermetrix UK US South Africa Australia Asia Middle-East 7
  • 8. Four Components of Behavior The Elements of the DISC-Index This DISC-Index report is unique in the marketplace for a number of reasons. You just completed the first ever click & drag DISC instrument on the market. This was constructed in a precise manner to allow for ease of responses, even in the midst of many difficult decisions. This intuitive interface allows you to focus on your answers, not the process. Also, unlike other DISC instruments, this instrument allows you to rank all four items instead. As a result, this instrument produces zero waste in responses. Some instruments ask you to choose two items out of four, and leave two items blank. Those instruments have a 50% waste of terms, and do not provide for an efficient response process. The DISC Index instrument eliminates that response problem. Another unique aspect of this DISC-Index report is that we present the DISC aspects of your behavior both as separate entities and as a dynamic combination of traits. This report presents Dave Gregory the first time that each of the DISC elements are separated and developed as pure entities of themselves. This can serve as an important learning tool as you explore the deeper aspects of DISC. Your unique pattern of DISC traits is developed through the context of this report. Additionally, the following four pages will be devoted to exploring your DISC scores as separate components within the unique combination of traits that you exhibit. A comment on contradictions: You may read some areas of this report that may contradict other text. This is due to the fact that many of us show contradictory behaviors in the normal course of our daily operations. Each of us are at times talkative and other times more reflective, depending on how we are adapting our behavior. The expression of these contradictions is a demonstration of the sensitivity of this instrument to determine these subtle differences in our natural and adaptive style. © 2010 Copyright Innermetrix UK US South Africa Australia Asia Middle-East 8
  • 9. Four Components of Behavior A closer look at the four components of your behavioral style Dave Gregory © 2010 Copyright Innermetrix UK US South Africa Australia Asia Middle-East 9
  • 10. Four Components of Behavior Decisive Your approach to problem-solving and obtaining results The D in DISC represents Decisiveness. Your score on this scale, represented below, shows your location on the D spectrum based on the pattern of your responses. A high score doesn't mean good, and a low score doesn't mean bad, as this is a spectrum or continuum of behavioral traits. For example: Higher D — Tend to solve new problems very quickly and assertively. They take an active and direct approach to obtaining results. The key here is new problems such as those that are unprecedented or haven't happened before. There may also be an element of risk in taking the wrong approach or developing an incorrect solution, but those with a High D score are willing to take those risks, even if they may be incorrect. Lower D — Tend to solve new problems in a more deliberate, controlled, and organized manner. Again, the key here is new and unprecedented problems. The Lower D style will solve routine Dave Gregory problems very quickly because the outcomes are already known. But, when the outcomes are unknown and the problem is an uncertain one, the Lower D style will approach the new problem in a calculated and deliberate manner by thinking things through very carefully before acting. Your score shows a high average score on the 'D' spectrum. 100 The comments below highlight some of the traits specific 90 to just your unique score. 80 • You can be quick about your decisions when time is short 70 and need is high. • You can become critical of others who don't measure up 60 56 to your standards. 50 49 • You like challenging assignments that require you to work out of your comfort zone. 40 • You're moderately self-reliant in determining new 30 directions or deciding on change. • You can be sufficiently assertive without being pushy or 20 nervy. 10 • You prefer a minimum of direct supervision or control over your actions. Natural Adaptive © 2010 Copyright Innermetrix UK US South Africa Australia Asia Middle-East 10
  • 11. Four Components of Behavior Interactive Your approach to interacting with people and display of emotions. The I in DISC represents Interactive. Your score on this scale represented below shows your location on the I spectrum based on the pattern of your responses. A high score doesn't mean good, and a low score doesn't mean bad, as this is a spectrum or continuum of behavioral traits. For example: Higher I — Tend to meet new people in an outgoing, gregarious, and socially assertive manner. The key here is new people whom one hasn't met before. Many other styles are talkative, but more so with people that they've known for some time. The Higher I scores are talkative, interactive and open even with people whom they have just initially met. People scoring in this range may also be a bit impulsive. Generally speaking, those with the Higher I scores are generally talkative and outgoing. Lower I — Tend to meet new people in a more controlled, quiet and reserved manner. Here's where the Dave Gregory key word "new people" enters the equation. Those with Lower I scores are talkative with their friends and close associates, but tend to be more reserved with people they've just recently met. They tend to place a premium on the control of emotions, and approach new relationships with a more reflective approach than an emotional one. Your score shows a high average score on the 'I' spectrum. 100 The comments below highlight some of the traits specific 90 to just your unique score. 80 • People may find you charming to meet and to converse 70 with on a variety of topics. 60 60 • You may sometimes promise a bit more than you can 60 deliver because of your natural optimism. 50 • You prefer an environment with ample people contact. • You present yourself in a poised manner to both small 40 or large groups of people. 30 • You tend to meet new people in a confident and appropriate manner. 20 • You prefer working in a social environment rather than 10 one that is remote or isolated. Natural Adaptive © 2010 Copyright Innermetrix UK US South Africa Australia Asia Middle-East 11
  • 12. Four Components of Behavior Stabilizing Your approach to the pace of the work environment The S in DISC represents Stabilizing. Your score on this scale represented below shows your location on the S spectrum based on the pattern of your responses. A high score doesn't mean good, and a low score doesn't mean bad, as this is a spectrum or continuum of behavioral traits. For example: Higher S — Tend to prefer a more controlled, deliberative and predictable environment. They place a premium on security of a work situation and disciplined behavior. They also tend to show a sense of loyalty to a team or organization, and as a result, may have a greater longevity or tenure in a position than some other styles. They have an excellent listening style and are very patient coaches and teachers for others on the team. Lower S — Tend to prefer a more flexible, dynamic, unstructured work environment. They value freedom of expression and the ability to change quickly from one activity to another. They tend to Dave Gregory become bored with the same routine that brings security to the Higher S traits. As a result, they will seek opportunities and outlets for their high sense of urgency and high activity levels, as they have a preference for spontaneity. Your score shows a high average score on the 'S' spectrum. 100 The comments below highlight some of the traits specific 90 to just your unique score. 80 • You are consistent and predictable over the long haul, 70 even in the midst of change. 63 • If insufficient structure and order exist, you will create it. 60 • When you need to, you can be flexible to change or new 50 46 ideas. • You serve to stabilize others on a team who are perhaps 40 too maverick. 30 • You prefer setting minimum levels of consistency and stability or control. 20 • You prefer to have sufficient clarification of policy or tasks 10 before proceeding, so as to avoid mistakes. Natural Adaptive © 2010 Copyright Innermetrix UK US South Africa Australia Asia Middle-East 12
  • 13. Four Components of Behavior Cautious Your approach to standards, procedures, and expectations. The C in DISC represents Cautiousness. Your score on the scale represented below shows your location on the C spectrum based on the pattern of your responses. A high score doesn't mean good, and a low score doesn't mean bad, as this is a spectrum or continuum of behavioral traits. For example: Higher C — Tend to adhere to rules, standards, procedures, and protocol set by those in authority whom they respect. They like things to be done the right way according to the operating manual. "Rules are made to be followed" is an appropriate motto for those with higher C scores. They have some of the highest quality control interests of any of the styles and frequently wish others would do the same. Lower C — Tend to operate more independently from the rules and standard operating procedures. They tend to be bottom-line oriented. If they find an easier way to do something, they'll do it by Dave Gregory developing a variety of strategies as situations demand. To the Lower C scores, rules are only guidelines, and may be bent or broken as necessary to obtain results. Your score shows a low average score on the 'C' spectrum. 100 The comments below highlight some of the traits specific 90 to just your unique score. 80 • You may be perceived as being non-committal by some 70 when it comes to deciding on how to proceed. • You might be perceived as a bit of a rule-bender by some 60 on the team. 50 46 • You are persistent in trying to get a message across, even in the midst of resistance. 40 • You prefer to act as your "own person" rather than follow 30 28 the norm. • You are flexible enough to work with or without a lot of 20 structure or order. 10 • You are fine with change when it is clear how it will improve efficiency. Natural Adaptive © 2010 Copyright Innermetrix UK US South Africa Australia Asia Middle-East 13
  • 14. Natural Style Pattern Overview Natural Style Pattern: Your natural style is the way you tend to behave when you aren't thinking about it. This is where you are most comfortable (natural). This is also the style you will revert back to when under stress or moving too quickly to be consciously thinking about modifying your behavior. Finally, this is the style you should seek to be true to in your daily roles. Being natural will return better results with less effort and stress. The following statements are true to just your unique natural style: • You may tend to prefer to socialize with a rather small group of associates and build deeper relationships than have shallow relationships with a wide number of people. • Shares a basic behavioral desire to help and serve others in a sincere and professional way to help them grow. Dave Gregory • Prefers maintaining the status quo rather than making changes just for the sake of change. • As a leader or member of a project team, you may show a deliberate, dispassionate, and serious approach to solving problems. • You show extremely high levels of patience in working with others. • Shows a high degree of internal loyalty to people, projects, and ideals in the organization. • You may tend to say 'yes' more than 'no' when asked to help out with a colleague's project or problem. That's okay, but it sometimes leads to over-commitment. • You tend to be friendly and easygoing without being an extremist. © 2010 Copyright Innermetrix UK US South Africa Australia Asia Middle-East 14
  • 15. Adaptive Style Pattern Overview Adaptive Style Pattern: This is the style of behavior you adapt to when you are conscious of your own behavior, when you feel you are being observed or whenever you are trying to better fit a situation. This is not a natural style for you, but still one of your two styles none-the-less. In other words, it is the way you feel you "should" behave when thinking about it. The statements below are specific to your individual Adaptive style: • You show a high trust level in the ability of others on the team to carry out their responsibilities and commitments. • You have the ability to handle pressing problems in a casual manner, but still get the problem solved. • Motivated to be very well networked and you know a wide variety of people within the Dave Gregory profession. This can be of enormous benefit to the team or organization as additional contacts become necessary. • You show confidence in your ability to motivate and persuade others into the behaviors required for the desired outcome of the project. • You want to be known as very people oriented. You like people, and want to be liked in return. • You prefer a favorable social environment rather than an antagonistic one, and will work to maintain the positive environment. • You show the ability to speak to audiences and motivate others with poise, confidence, and excellent verbal skills. • You are motivated by promoting ideas and generating enthusiasm in others. © 2010 Copyright Innermetrix UK US South Africa Australia Asia Middle-East 15
  • 16. Ideas for Being More Effective Based on your behavioral style there are certain opportunities for becoming more effective by being aware of how you prefer, and enjoy, to behave. The items below may assist you in your professional development growth. By understanding these items you may find explanations for why you may be stuck in some areas of your life and why other aspects give you no trouble at all. You could be more effective by: • Sufficient time to consider alternatives prior to making changes. • Options for increasing efficiency of certain methods or procedures. • An environment with minimal sudden changes and crises. • An increased sense of urgency. • Being more open to meeting new groups of people, or business associations. • Efficient systems or utilities to handle routine work more effectively. Dave Gregory • Products and processes to believe in. • Peers of equal ability, competence, and work ethic. © 2010 Copyright Innermetrix UK US South Africa Australia Asia Middle-East 16
  • 17. Ideas for Staying More Motivated Your behavioral style will cause you to be motivated by certain factors in your environment. Having these present may make you feel more motivated, and productive. The following are things that you may want in your surroundings to feel optimally motivated: • Freedom of speech, and people to listen. • You want to work with a team of people with whom you can show your high trust level. • Interesting activities outside of the work environment. Some with similar scores like to be involved in volunteer and community activities. • Supportive and encouraging working environment. • Social recognition for success on a project or achieving a goal. • A strong, visible group or organization with which to identify. • A variety of activities involving people, both on the job and off. Dave Gregory • Awards to confirm ability, skill, or achievements. © 2010 Copyright Innermetrix UK US South Africa Australia Asia Middle-East 17
  • 18. Strength-based Insights Each behavioral style contains certain unique strengths as a result of how your four behavioral dimensions relate to each another. Understanding your own unique behavioral strengths is an important part of putting your new level of self-awareness to work for your success and satisfaction.

  • 28. Introduction to the Values Index About This Report Research conducted by Innermetrix shows that the most successful people share the common trait of self-awareness. They recognize the situations that will make them successful, and this makes it easy for them to find ways of achieving objectives that resonate with their motivations. They also understand their limitations and where they are not effective and this helps them understand what does not inspire them or what will not motivate them to succeed. Those who understand their natural motivators better are far more likely to pursue the right opportunities, for the right reasons, and get the results they desire. This report measures seven dimensions of motivation. They are: • Aesthetic - a drive for balance, harmony and form. Dave Gregory • Economic - a drive for economic or practical returns. • Individualistic - a drive to stand out as independent and unique. • Political - a drive to be in control or have influence. • Altruist - a drive for humanitarian efforts or to help others altruistically. • Regulatory - a drive to establish order, routine and structure. • Theoretical - a drive for knowledge, learning and understanding. © 2010 Copyright Innermetrix UK US South Africa Australia Asia Middle-East 28
  • 29. Seven Dimensions of Value and Motivation The Elements of the Values Index This Values Index is unique in the marketplace in that it examines seven independent and unique aspects of value or motivation. Most other values instruments only examine six dimensions of value by combining the Individualistic and Political into one dimension. The Values Index remains true to the original works and models of two of the most significant researchers in this field, thus delivering to you a profile that truly helps you understand your own unique motivations and drivers. Also, the Values Index is the first to use a click & drag approach to rank the various statements in the instrument, which makes taking the instrument more intuitive, natural and in the end you can actually create the order you see in your mind on the screen.

  • 48. Patterns Overview Over fifty years of scientific research has revealed that there are three distinct styles of decision-making. Each of us can make decisions in these three ways, but we tend to develop a preference for one more than the other two. This preference becomes a subconscious force, affecting the decisions we make on a daily basis and shaping how we perceive the world around us and ourselves. The three decisional styles are the personal, the practical, and the analytical. These dimensions can be examined in the form of patterns based on two distinct factors unique to axiology. The Personal Style: People with a preference for this style of making decisions tend to see the world from a personal point of view, or with concern for the individuals involved. They see people in a unique, individual light and are more concerned about others than the results and theory. This involves a personal involvement with, concentration on, or investment in people. To this style, the world is filled with people needing to be understood. The Practical Style: People with a preference for this style of making decisions tend to see things in very practical, no nonsense, real-world, task oriented manner. They are more concerned with results than others and theory. They see people in comparative ways as they relate to others. To this style, the world is an objective waiting to be achieved. The Analytical Style: People with a preference for this style of making decisions tend to see the world from a theoretical perspective, more in an abstract way than a concrete one. They see people as part of a system and tend to think in very black and white terms. They are more concerned with thinking about things, and analysis than actual results or personal concerns of others. To this style, the world is a problem to be explored and solved. Dave Gregory To some extent we are all capable of making all three kinds of decisions, but our preference tends to be for one more than the other two. Here's a simple example of the three in contrast to each other. One of each style are sitting around a table trying to figure out what to do. While the Personal style is focused on the needs of the workers involved and how best to utilize their talents, the Practical doesn't really care as much about the personal needs, or if it is done right, he just wants to get it done. Finally there is the Analytical who sees no reason to worry about the people involved or even getting it done if it isn't going to be done correctly. We all have different balances of these three styles; that's what makes our decisions and actions different from each other's. These ways of making decisions, and how we use them, are at the core of who we are. They are behind our preferences, our strengths, and our weaknesses. In the following pages you will find a list of capacities which are the result of your unique combination of these three decisional styles. It is this understanding of your individual strengths and weaknesses that will enable you to affect change in your life and achieve greater personal success. It is only by first understanding something that we are then able to change it. © 2010 Copyright Innermetrix UK US South Africa Australia Asia Middle-East 48
  • 49. Balanced I=E=S (H) External Decision Making Pattern Summary You are very well developed in all three dimensions of thought (People, Tasks and Systems) and with equal proportion. You can be very competent in all three dimensions of value from schematic thinking, to practicality to valuing others. You appreciate and possess equal strengths in: systems, rules, structure, concrete organization, detailed planning, and people skills. You are a versatile, quick learner in all of these areas. This can also lead to your becoming easily bored or anxious in positions that require excessive over or under focus on any one dimension of thought by itself, to the exclusion of the others (e.g., door to door sales actually requires less than excellent empathy). Overall development levels in all three dimensions are equal and all are highly developed. Level of development speaks to your ability t"s" a specific dimension. The more clearly we see a dimension of thought, the more able we are to use it; therefore the better we are at it. Maximizers Versatility in dealing with people, performance or systems equally Quick learning ability in a wide variety of business areas Stability, dependability Over-all very good to excellent business and people management potential Understanding and communicating with others Planning and organizing Schematic thinking Minimizers Dave Gregory Gets easily bored with limited tasks and responsibilities May become anxious if all three areas (people, performance and Systems) aren't utilized.

  • 50. Professional E>I>S Internal Decision Making Pattern Summary You define yourself more in terms of your work or professional role than you do for who you are as a person internally. The result is that you are a very hard worker who places a lot of value on what you do. You are very driven to succeed in whatever role you fill. Your self-esteem is a little lower due to you basing your self worth on "what" you do more than "who" you are. All of us are more than just jobs, but this is your primary basis for evaluating yourself as a person. You are also unclear as to the actual steps you should be taking to accomplish your role. Not that the role itself is in question, but more that the specific way you fulfill it might be. This can be caused by recent changes in "how" you carry out your role (e.g., new technology, new marketing campaign, etc.). For whatever reason you are unclear as to the internal guides and rules that you feel you need to follow in order to be successful in a given role. Your objective is quite clear, but the path you should take to reach that objective remains a little unclear at this time. You value the tasks dimension above all others and your level of development in this dimension is high. You value the people dimension second most with moderate development in this dimension and the Systems dimension is the least clear to you with low levels of development at this time. Level of development speaks to your ability to "see" a specific dimension. The more clearly we see a dimension of thought, the more able we are to use it; therefore the better we are at it. Maximizers Professional or social role identification; role satisfaction in the present. Minimizers Questions about future direction and the personal rules that will govern the actions to get there. Dave Gregory Motivators Active, progressive work achievement Role success Material possessions Needs for Growth To clarify the specifics of how you accomplish your role, and increase the level of importance you place on yourself outside of job successes.
