  14. FIRO – B Provides Insight at Both Individual and Group Levels • Our individual needs for Inclusion, Control and Openness • Our relationships with other people • How we fulfill social needs in groups • Compatibility FIRO-B can facilitate our understanding of team dynamics and how to improve team effectiveness

  15. FIRO-B Measures Interpersonal Needs • INCLUSION: The extent of contact and prominence that a person seeks • CONTROL: The extent of power or dominance that a person seeks. • AFFECTION: The extent of closeness that a person seeks.

  16. Measures How Much Needs are EXPRESSED and WANTED • EXPRESSED: The extent to which a person will initiate the behavior. The behavior you are most comfortable in demonstrating toward others. • WANTED: The extent to which a person prefers to be the recipient of the behavior. The behavior you prefer others use in their attempts to get together with you.

  17. MY RESULTS EXPRESSED WANTED Where you have very high or very low scores, go hum……

  18. What’s considered a high and a low score? 0 – 2 (Low): The behavior described will rarely be displayed by the person. 3 – 6 (Medium): Although not extreme, the person may display a tendency toward the behavior described. 7 – 9 (High): The behavior will be noticeably characteristic of the person.

  19. GROUP EXERCISE • GET INTO YOUR INDUSTRY GROUPS • SHARE YOUR LOWEST SCORE AND TALK WHY YOU THINK IT IS LOW. • SELECT YOUR HIGHEST SCORE AND TALK ABOUT WHY YOU THINK IT IS HIGH. • DO YOU THINK YOUR OVERALL INTERPERSONAL NEEDS SCORE FEELS ACCURATE FOR WHERE YOU ARE IN YOUR LIFE RIGHT NOW?

  20. STRENGTHS FINDER

  21. WHY DO ORGANIZATIONS FOCUS ON DEVELOPING WEAKNESSES?

  22. “Fixing” Weaknesses Most organizations are built on two flawed assumptions about people: • Each person can learn to be competent in almost anything • Each person’s greatest room for growth is in his or her areas of greatest weaknesses

  23. “Fixing” Weaknesses For centuries, mankind has been guided by the belief that good is the opposite of bad • ….and has since been fixated in studying fault and failing • ….in order to learn about strengths and success

  24. The Strengths Revolution Two assumptions that guide the world’s best performers: • Each person’s strengths and talents are • Each person’s greatest room for growth is in the areas of their strengths

  25. What Makes a Strength? • A strength = Talent + Knowledge + Skill • For an activity to be a strength • You must be able to do it consistently • You must derive some intrinsic satisfaction from the activity • Your talents are natural, instinctual recurring patterns of thought

  26. Why Focus on Strengths? • The organization whose employees feel that their strengths are used every day is more powerful and more robust • When we get to use our strengths, we naturally excel • The tragedy is not that we don’t have enough strengths, it’s that we fail to use the ones we have

  27. Strengths-Based Performance Management • Most organizations agree on the three key areas of performance worth focusing on • The person’s impact on the business • The person’s impact on the customer, whether internal or external • The person’s impact on the employees around them

  28. What About Weaknesses? Success is achieved when you capitalize on your strengths, and manage around your weaknesses Fixing weaknesses can help, but it is damage control, not development

  29. Parting Advice Dedicate 50 – 70% of your development to building your strengths

  30. Neighbor SHARE • TURN TO YOUR NEIGHBOR AND SHARE ONE OF THE STRENGTHS THAT SURPRISED YOU THE MOST AND WHY? • WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU WERE ACKNOWLEDGE FOR ONE OF YOUR STRENGTHS?
