## By completing the Interaction Effectiveness Assessment® (iea) you will learn:

- How you typically behave
- How your behavior influences your interactions
- How your interactions influence how others respond to you
- The potential consequences of your behavior on others, both positive and negative
- How to increase your interpersonal effectiveness

## Interaction Effectiveness Assessment® (iea) Applications

With only a 10-15 minute investment of your time to complete the iea, you will receive a personalized and comprehensive report to help you modify your behavior in ways to ensure you will be perceived as more effective in all your interactions.

#### Leadership and self-development

Whether you work alone, in a team, at home, or in an organization, chances are you have multiple interactions with others on a daily basis.

#### Coaching / counseling

The more individuals know about themselves, how they behave, how they react to difficulty, what their typical behavior patterns are …

#### Conflict resolution

Trust is the foundation of any productive relationship. Conflict in any relationship is inevitable. How you handle the conflict and manage the relationship is what is important.

#### Teambuilding

Teamwork unifies diverse people to work well together. Whether your team is co-located, or spread around the globe.

#### Interviewing

The first impression someone has of you may often turn out to be the lasting impression. Can you afford not to be at your best and most authentic when preparing for an interview?

#### Talent management

Your people are your most important resources. Can you afford to let them languish without providing development opportunities?

I showed my results to a colleague who chairs our department. He was astonished how close the findings were to his perception of me at this time. I was struck by how remarkably tuned-in and spot-on (and useful) the assessment was.
