This “Total Person Analysis” graphic has been introduced to the front of all of our behavioral reports.
As you view each level, from the center outward, you will see that we go from the internal – our feelings and thoughts – into the external – what we do, how we see the world, and finally how the world sees us.
Emotional Intelligence is the instinctive ability to feel, identify, understand, apply, explain, manage, and control our and others’ emotions.
Intelligence constitutes the ability to learn, reason, plan, problem solve, communicate, and deal with abstract and concrete information.
Attitudes and Values: Attitudes are how we feel about people, places, things, and events in terms of like and dislike, positive and negative. Values make up the ideals and beliefs that we hold as special. Both are powerful motivators that often drive what we do.
Experiences are the sum of our activities and the knowledge and insights we have gained from doing them. Those experiences can be work-related, educational, or interpersonal.
Personal Skills (Competencies) relates to the capability to perform a specific role or task. These are acquired abilities that we can easily and comfortably perform.
World View places us outside of ourselves and into the world around us. This is not only our perception of politics, economics, religion, culture, science, etc., but, also our beliefs about the world and its inhabitants.
Behavior refers to our observable actions/conduct, which places it on the outer-most level since it is external. Behavior can be conscious or subconscious, overt or covert, and voluntary or involuntary.
Remember, all of these represent parts of us that can be developed, adapted, and used for our betterment and success!
