Bar-On
Emotional Quotient Inventory (EQi)
Bar-On EQ-i was developed to answer the basic question:
Why do some people with high IQ fail in life, while others
with moderate IQ succeed? It has become increasingly apparent
that the more emotional and social intelligence (common
sense and street smarts) we have, the easier it is to be
efficient and successful in our daily lives. This is because
IQ (cognitive intelligence) is different than EQ (emotional
intelligence). The Bar-On EQi helps individuals and groups
take an inventory of their emotional and social skills through
the use of a 133-item, on-line questionnaire. Areas of strength
and opportunity are identified and an action plan for development
is suggested. This is an excellent assessment tool for professional,
career, team, and leadership development.

developed by Richard L. Knowdell, National Certified Career
Counsellor. It is a hands-on, non-threatening tool that
explores career values, motivated skills, personal style,

upon which to base exploration of options and development
of a go-forward plan. The Career Development & Job Search
Profile is most effective when used with individuals considering

Entrepreneurial
Style & Success Indicator
The Entrepreneurial Style & Success Style Indicator
(ESSI) is a concise, straightforward, easy-to-use instrument
based on a combination of personal style theories and documented
research with 4,000 plus entrepreneurs. While not designed
to produce a psychometric evaluation, its unique structure
creates a powerful learning and communication tool for those
considering a move into the entrepreneurial world. The ESSI
identifies factors required for entrepreneurial success
as well as the styles of behavior that may demonstrate a
person’s ability to succeed in an entrepreneurial/intrapreneurial
environment. Further, the ESSI guides individuals through
necessary behavior style modification to increase their
effectiveness in entrepreneurial and business situations.
Job
Style Indicator
The Job Style Indicator (JSI) is the ideal communication
tool to use when it comes to assessing job positions based
on types of tasks and style behaviors. The JSI helps to
bring clarity to the process of managing job applicants,
assessing current employees, and/or helping a group of supervisors
reach agreement on how a particular position should best
be filled. This tool can be used for team development, performance
improvement, job orientation, and career planning.
Leadership
Skills Inventory
The Leadership Skills Inventory is a skills based leadership
development tool for leaders in business, education, government
and the community to help people understand the importance
of creating leadership environments.
The Leadership Skills Inventory (LSI) approaches leadership
from the fact that leaders can be made, they don’t
have to be born. It is called transforming leadership. The
LSI is based on 12 foundational beliefs that highlight the
kind of leadership needed for the 21st century and beyond.
The
LSI has two separate assessments. The “self”
provides the leader with a tool for assessing his or her
effectiveness in self-management, communications, counseling,
problem-management skills, consulting and versatility. The
“others” assessment is just what it is says
it is. This is an assessment that the leader can distribute
to key associates and subordinates for feedback on his or
her effectiveness in various critical leadership areas.
A
total of 56 skills are spread over five sections. Once completed,
participants will understand what they need to do to increase
their leadership skills, and will help all organization
members understand the skills and roles required to lead
effectively.
The
LSI is quick and easy to read, understand and complete.
While self-scoring and self-interpreting the LSI is both
informative and personally revealing. Space is given for
each participant to put together a game plan to develop
and work on improving their overall effectiveness. For each
of the low scoring areas the participants will identify
the new behavior they are planning to work on, their commitment
and or training they will work through.
Anyone
who is interested in increasing his or her leadership effectiveness
will benefit by working through the Leadership Skills Inventory.

score on Behavioural, Cognitive, Affective, and Interpersonal

Worth Inventory
Many research studies have revealed that a powerful force
lives within each of us that can either make or break us
socially. This internal reality is often called our self-worth.
Self-worth is a measure of the most personal and intimate
relationship we will ever have with anyone who is alive:
ourselves. We must live with ourselves 24/7. Wherever we
go, there we are. The Self-Worth Inventory (SWI) helps individuals
identify, understand, and develop leadership within their
own personalities, so they may increase their level of self-management
skills.

Indicator & Health Planner

learn to identify the main factors that lead to stress in
their lives and areas of unhealthy living. It is designed
to help participants better understand how these internal
influences direct their daily lives, and impact their personal
working relationships. Many people assume that work is the
major cause of stress in their lives. The SIHP details stress
management including work, but also delves into personal,
social, organizational and time related stress. By working
through this assessment one is able to develop coping and
problem-solving skills along with wellness and performance
improvement. The purpose of this tool is to encourage individuals
to develop a plan to increase overall levels of health,
well-being and performance.

individuals learn how to identify their strongest values,
needs and fears so that they might better understand how
these internal influences direct their daily lives and impact
their personal and work relationships. The VPI has been
widely used not only in helping people in the area of value
identification and decision-making, but has also been used
in relationship and team building development. It is a wonderful
tool in improving interpersonal communication and conflict
resolution.
360-Degree
Feedback
People need feedback. That’s because most of us have
blind spots; we don’t see ourselves as others do.
Feedback is essential to improving performance and fully
appreciating one’s value. An effective and anonymous
vehicle for providing feedback is through third-party rating
or 360-degree feedback. Elite Resumes can provide 360-degree
reports/feedback based on an interview-based approach or
through the use of a computer-driven program.
