It’s been a long time since I found myself getting so excited about an assessment tool. But recently I’ve had so many successes using the 5Dynamics assessment tool that I feel compelled to get the word out. After using numerous tools over the course of my career, I’ve never come across anything as powerful as 5Dynamics. Its impact comes from its simplicity combined with the incredible insights it delivers. Unlike most tools, it can be easily understood and applied by leaders across different functions and throughout an organization.
5Dynamics measures our energy intensity in the dynamics that tell us a lot about how we do our work and live our lives. It also can tell us how we learn and where we naturally would be inclined to spend our time.
At the Jackson Hole Group we use the 5Dynamics tool in our executive advising, coaching work, team development, and in general organization advising. It is an amazing tool and seen as an insightful asset by our clients. It only takes less than 10 minutes for an individual to take the assessment on-line and the resulting report is incredibly accurate and insightful.
One of the great differentiators of this tool from others is its relevance to business in delivering superior performance through team insights and building trust. Building more effective teams increases functionality and delivers better performance.
I’ve been using 5Dynamics for over 5 years now and its power only gets stronger. I find myself looking at life through the lens of 5Dynamics. Even though the tool is based on how work gets done through the phases of Explore, Excite, Examine, Execute, and Evaluate, I find it has relevance to how we behave in pretty much all situations. I even found, after many years of marriage, that I can find insights into why my wife and I sometimes struggle with situations. Through the insights provided by the tool I have gained a better appreciation for how others see activities, events and facts, which allows me to appreciate the perspectives from others and to gain a better understanding of how to better deal with it.
I am so passionate about the 5Dynamics instrument I have become a Master Trainer. I find myself telling everyone I can about the tool because I want to give them the opportunity to use it. For me, 5Dynamics is intuitively obvious and the nice thing about it is that anyone can understand it and use it once you have the basic training. Learning how to see things from multiple perspectives and to understand our own reactions just makes sense. It is a powerful insight.
