Studies from Gallup show there is a “magic ratio” to create the perfect balance in providing corrective direction or feedback. 3:1 for professional relationships. 5:1 for personal relationships. This means for every piece of constructive feedback, aim to provide three positive comments at work, and five in personal settings. Why should you use this? It’s simple: people are more likely to embrace feedback when they feel recognized and valued. By applying this ratio, you’re breaking down barriers and defenses while keeping the whole person at the center of the conversation. #leadership #feedback #communication #professionaldevelopment

How do you ensure you’re hiring or promoting the right fit — not just any fit? Our Job Benchmark process is designed to help you dig deeper into what makes a role successful. It’s not just about the qualifications of a candidate; it’s about understanding the core attributes required from the job that will drive top performance. Here’s why and how we use it: ✓ Aligning passion with culture by identifying the unique rewards and culture of your organization and ensuring candidates are motivated by what your company values most. ✓ Clarifying key position characteristics to provide a clear picture of what it takes to succeed in that specific role. ✓ Allowing the job to “speak,” highlighting possible challenges within the role as it relates to each candidate so you can address them upfront in the interview or in the onboarding. This process isn’t about finding just anyone who can do the job; it’s about finding someone who will thrive in the role. #hiringstrategy #jobbenchmark #leadershipdevelopment #talentmanagement

Every person on your team operates with a unique communication and behavior style that impacts their approach to work, conversations, and interactions. Their DISC profile provides a glimpse into this style and a roadmap for fine-tuning your approach to working better with each person on your team. Here’s how: For an above-the-energy line DOMINANCE-oriented colleague, keep it short and focused. They appreciate efficiency and straight talk. Your above-the-energy line INFLUENCE style team member love to brainstorm—let them talk through their ideas and build momentum! The above-the-energy line STEADINESS type thrives on consistency. Be sure to check in regularly and offer steady reassurance. When working with above-the-energy-line COMPLIANCE folks, precision is key. Be detailed and logical, and don’t rush them. #DISC #Certifications #TeamBuilding
