THE BIRKMAN PREMIER ASSESSMENT:

The Birkman Method® is a personality, social perception, and occupational interest assessment which measures and provides insights into your behavioral strengths, motivations, stress behaviors, and targeted career profiles. The Birkman Method is an exceptional tool to better understand yourself, understand others, as well as the interpersonal and career choices that can lead to success and well-being – both at home and in the workplace.

THE BIRKMAN PREMIER REPORT AND GUIDE:

The Birkman Premier Report is a comprehensive behavioral report.  It includes all of the information from the Birkman Basics Report along with detailed descriptions of 11 behavioral components in your 3 different behavior patterns. Included in the report is a powerful report on your stress behaviors and how to avoid stress specific to your behavior patterns.

  • PERSONAL STRENGTHS AND NEEDS This Personal Strengths & Needs report describes your behaviors and motivations. This is not measuring your talents or abilities, rather it is an individualized description and interpretation of the individual’s strengths and basic needs. Each section highlights one of the components listed below by outlining their strengths (Usual Behavior) associated with the particular style. These statements are very positive, and indicate your natural, effective behavior. Then, there is a paragraph describing your Basic Needs. These statements are non-judgmental but help you understand that being maximally productive is dependent on having certain basic needs met. Finally, there is a paragraph outlining POTENTIAL behavior in the event that the need is not met. There is nothing absolute about this Stress Behavior description, but it can easily be used in developing an “early warning system” in identifying and coping with stress.
