# Workbook and Action Planning Guide

### Each iea report comes with a workbook to help you formulate a personal development plan.

You are asked to consider behaviors you want to:

##### **Continue… Start… Stop…**

### Exercises for all three sections of the *iea* are included.

These sections include:

1

#### Your Role Type

2

#### Your Interaction Pattern

3

#### Your Effectiveness Profile

 The ten page guide asks systematic questions to help you formulate areas of particular interest and concern to you. As you answer the questions, you will gain a greater understanding of how you can improve your interactions with others.

### Samples of the questions you will be answering include:

- How satisfied are you that your ratings reflect your actual typical behavior?
- What balance might you need to bring to your interactions in order to be more effective?
- On what items, if any, were you most surprised at how you rated the item compared to the effective range?
- What strengths do you have to draw on as you consider modifying some of your behavior?

 Finally, you will select 2-3 areas of most concern on which to concentrate your change efforts, and complete an action matrix similar to the one below.
