Organizational assessments foster team building by helping team members incorporate behavioral attributes that bring about high productivity. It also helps in the early diagnosis of personality and adjustment problems, thus avoiding problems that affect the team’s collective performance.
DISC Profile and Team Building
DISC profile, one of the most prominent tools for organizational assessments, has been specially designed to build a cohesive team in a multicultural environment. These tools help gain insight into an employee’s deviant personality attributes that can possibly trigger a conflict. Timely identification of these attributes can lead to the development of strategic team building programs that are focused on enhancing team members’ ability to adjust with one another.
Benefits of Organizational Assessments
Regular organizational assessments help eliminate ethnic, cultural and behavioral tensions that erupt during work. Also, communication barriers that commonly crop up in a multi-ethnic work culture are reduced. In the book “Organizational Assessment,” eminent clinical psychologists, Dr. Rolf E. Rogers and Dr. Jane Y. Fong emphasize that planned team building efforts alleviate conflicts related to inter-group morality, participation, organizational performance and diversity.
To reinforce inter-group ties, organizational assessments must be implemented on a continuous basis. Your Ultimate Success (YUS) has assisted organizations in implementing a battery of DISC profiles and other assessment tools focused on cohesive team building.
