As a leader, how effective are your interactions?

Gain Personal Insights

One thing that’s clear in this world of fast change and increased interdependencies is that managers and individual contributors must work together smoothly and seamlessly. It could be said that the life-blood of any organization is interaction. It is critical that people effectively cooperate, collaborate, coordinate action, build trust, and listen.

But typically people work with each other in a state of blindness regarding how they go about interacting with others. The Lauridsen Reinhardt Group’s Human Performance Interaction Inventory assesses the critical components of “high-performance interaction” revealing to the participant how they might be blocking their efforts at increasing productivity through their interactions with others.

Gain the Insights of a 1:1 Coach

Team members who complete the HPII gain the insights of a 1:1 coach, and with their help, participants develop areas for growth and hone their skills for improved interactions. Completion of the HPII often leads to increased value in the leader’s daily interactions by accelerating the development of the non-technical and relational aspects of their communication with others.

Designed for leaders, managers, and individual contributors roles, the HPII has helped hundreds of people to understand and change the way they converse (interact) when planning, producing, and innovating.

How it Works

The HPII can be administered to a select individual who rates him/her Self and is rated by 5-6 Raters selected by the participant as noted below.

1. HPII 1 (Self-Assessment)
   The individual self-assesses their interaction competence in the areas of cooperating, coordinating action, collaborating, building trust, and effective listening.
2. HPII 2 (Raters’ Assessments)
   1. Up to 6 of the focal individual’s peers, managers, and subordinates provide feedback on key elements of interaction. All assessments come to the Lauridsen Reinhardt office, are averaged and analyzed, then a report is prepared.
   2. No one in the company sees individual ratings, and only the person being rating sees the report.  The person rated can share the report with a mentor or coach as desired.  There is an option to select a coaching session with one of our staff experts when buying the test.

The HPII Report

When completed, results and recommendations are presented to the individual in a comprehensive, confidential report along with our HPII Self-Development Guide.  The report identifies the individual’s interaction strengths (both known and unrecognized), blind spots and stumbling blocks that might hinder effective interaction, negatively impact productivity and slow their career development.

The individual can work on their own with the HPII Self-Development Guide, or as noted above, an HPII consultant or accredited practitioner can guide them through the findings and help them develop a step by step strategy to deal with areas that might need improvement.
