INSIGHTS DISCOVERY

INSIGHTS is popular and trusted, used by many of the worlds leading organisations, in public and private sectors. It's a great tool for delivering lasting behavioural awareness and we believe that this is key for us to understand our clients and, of course, for them to understand themselves.

Insights Discovery uses a four colour model to understand the differences in how pepole like to behave and communicate. It measures these preferences based on responses to a short online evaluator. The output is a comprehensive 20 page personality profile, which identifies strengths and areas for development. This is often our starting point for targeted coaching.

Insights Discovery has its roots in the work of Swiss psychologist Carl Jung and is registered with the British Psychological Society (BPS) and their testing centre (PTC). It is continually validated and refined to ensure it's always accurate and deeply insightful.

C-me COLOUR PROFILING

C-me is a new colour profiling system used successfully to understand self and others and as a crucial aid to recruitment. Completed via a quick online questionnaire, C-me generates an easily accessible report which uses contemporary language and exercises to make the most of the new understanding.

Reports are simple and uncannily accurate! Although the product is relatively new, the creators have over 25 years experience of working in behavioural profiling. They had the time to get it right and at Perfect Pitch we love the no nonsense approach this profiling brings our clients.

Using the same four-colour model as INSIGHTs and also based on the psychology of Karl Jung it is an alternative option which we like to offer.

JCA Emotional Intelligence evaluator

Many people have a tendency to suppress, ignore or dismiss feelings, especially when they are uncomfortable. Over time, this habit reduces one’s capacity for self-awareness, limiting our potential to perform and undermining our health.

Businesses that lack Emotional Intelligence may see rigid or defensive behaviour in their people, poor team working, low levels of personal resilience and reoccurring emotional outbursts.

Businesses high in Emotional Intelligence benefit from more engaged employees and leaders, staff who are more able to adapt and cope with change, better team working, collaboration and innovation.

The Emotional Intelligence Profile (EIP3) is a scientifically validated and industry recognised self-assessment measure of Emotional Intelligence that has been proven to help improve performance.

The EIP3 helps enable sustainable performance and developmental change by identifying the underlying attitudes that underpin an individual’s thinking and feeling. These are the attitudes that drive behaviour and performance.

We offer an essential service of evaluation, training and consultancy to ensure that your people and your organisation possess the Emotional Intelligence to be the best.

The TalentPredix profile captures the uniqueness of each person’s strengths, career motivations and values. This unlocks exceptional talent outcomes and thriving workplaces.

I just wanted to let you know that two individuals that attended Emma's Emotional Intelligence course last week had personally told me how amazing the session was, phrases ‘life changing’ and ‘I will tell everyone that they have to attend’ were used. Well done!

Whatever it is that you’re doing, the LSE staff are loving it, so keep it up!
