Using the Birkman Method To Increase Profitability

Many top organizations throughout the United States and world wide are in the throes of aligning their teams to meet dynamic and ever changing business demands. In many corporate jargon the activity associated with aligning teams to the strategic plan is known as "top grading". To "top grade" is to assess, compare, identify and execute to achieve top performance from those responsible for achieving the goals of the organizaiton.

The Birkman Methond is a multi-dimensional assessment integrating behavioral, motivational, and occupational data. This business-focused assessment is developed from scientific methodology to enhance interpersonal and occupational success. The Birkman Method, combined with a Certified Birkman Consultant, expands individuals’ personal awareness, enabling them to shift their perspective and reveal new choices. This new-found self-enlightenment allows individuals to achieve clarity, eliminate self-imposed limitations, and enhance their self-belief so they can better utilize their own strengths, as well as the strengths of those around them. Thus, individuals are more productive, motivated, and proficient. Accordingly, organizations flourish by retaining employees, generating complete awareness of their workforce, and deriving a culture that values teamwork where personal development persistently drives the success of the organization.
