The Birkman Method® provides an underpinning to most of our organizational interventions. The Birkman Method® consists of a 298-question personality assessment and a series of related report sets that facilitate team building, executive coaching, leadership development, career counseling and interpersonal conflict resolution. The Birkman Method® combines motivational, behavioral and interest evaluation into one single assessment, which provides a multi-dimensional and comprehensive analysis, thus reducing the need for multiple assessments. The questionnaire, which is available in 12 languages, is delivered on-line and should take about 45 minutes to complete. Feedback will be delivered by Michael Pollock of RedPoint Management, who is a Birkman Certified Consultant. Up to 40 Subsequent reports may be utilized for organizational integration.
 

Through a combination of regression and factor analysis, The Birkman Method® identifies the respondent's everyday interpersonal style (usual behavior), and unlike most other popular assessments, gives unique insights into underlying motivations and needs. Stress behaviors are identified when these needs are not met. Knowing the underlying motivations and the consequences of unmet needs gives your RedPoint advisor an effective way to improve workplace performance and reduce conflict.

In brief, The Birkman Method® includes the five major perspectives:

Usual Behavior – an individual's effective behavioral style of dealing with relationships and tasks.

Underlying Needs – an individual's expectations of how relationships and social situations should be governed in context of the relationship or situation.

Stress Behaviors – an individual's ineffective style of dealing with relationships or tasks; behavior observed when underlying needs are not met.

Interests – an individual's expressed preference for job titles based on the assumption of equal economic rewards.

Organizational Focus – the perspective in which an individual views problems and solutions relating to organizational goals.
