The Program

Winning Together With Kolbe begins with each participant completing their Kolbe A* Index—an online questionnaire that takes about 20 minutes. Participants receive a detailed and personalized report that explains their unique way of getting things done.

Before the session, the team leader receives a team productivity report, which outlines the diversity of your of talent and natural energy in the work group. We identify potential communication and team performance issues and provide recommendations for improvement. And we help the leader separate Kolbe-related issues from other team dynamics.

The team session is a fun, interactive, and engaging experience. Through a combination of concepts and exercises, participants learn how a variety of styles can complement and benefit everyone on the team. Often delivered as a half-day workshop or 2-hour WebEd virtual session, we can customize the program to meet your needs.

Individual Interpretations (optional)

Many groups also take advantage of the optional one-on-one interpretations. These can be for each team member or with selected people such as team leaders. In these conversations, participants will have a personalized and more detailed explanation of their Kolbe result. It’s a great way to help them more fully understand what the results mean for them, their career, and their team.
