Nowadays hardly anything is delivered without an instruction manual. There are exact statements on anything concerning how and where to use an appliance or such, on how to get the appliance started, and on how to eliminate faults when handling it. Only with regard to people such manuals do not exist.
And this despite the fact, that this topic is more actual than ever:
Since years questions concerning strengths and weaknesses are favoured classics at job interviews and in Assessment Centres and many people still work up a sweat in this situation. The reason for this: is the fact that only then most of these persons become consciously aware of this connection. Weaknesses are easily found, but especially concerning their strengths many come to a stop.
„In our society and especially in Germany it is a wide-spread phenomenon to be focused on improving one’s weaknesses. What was always so effortless for us to do is so much taken for granted, that we are normally unaware of it. But it is here in these areas where our largest potential lies“, says Barbara Selchow, analyst on personality and potential, Frankfurt am Main.
Recognizing/Knowing and bringing forward Strengths
But the knowledge concerning one’s own competence areas, abilities and talents is for many other decisions also an important basis.
Especially today and very early many doors are opening up for young people: The choice of the correct school, main focus, work experience, stays abroad, …. Many of the decisions made here, are giving directions concerning the later career.
Wouldn’t it be a good idea to use and bring forward already at this point what corresponds best with the natural potential, in order to move from the start into the right direction?
Potential Analysis with PearlDiverAnalytics®
According to estimates of experts the German economy looses annually 3 billion Euro because many employees are in position, which does not correspond with their abilities. Here the PearlDiverAnalytics®-Team, Frankfurt am Main starts.
„Most of all we are concerned to assist young people to get to know themselves and their natural strengths and abilities better, so that they can trust them in decisive situations“, says Martin Weiss, Managing Director of the organisation „Haus der Mentoren“ and co-founder of the model . „Most personality- and potential analysis models are directed towards business professionals, and are very cost-intensive and therefore can hardly be used by youg people„.
PearlDiverAnalytics® is already used successfully within companies for the selection and development of employees. ”In addition though, we have a possibility for scholars and students, because we are deeply committed to the sponsoring and support of young talents in Germany”, says Mr. Weiss.
To bring about awareness concerning the unconscious : „The speciality of PearlDiverAnalytics® is, that with this method conscious and unconscious parts of the personality and potential can be made accessible“, describes Aleksandra Perlova, Verhaltenstherapeutin (behavior therapist), Frankfurt am Main, the advantages of the model. Thus, a result comes up, in fact something like a personnel „Instruction Manual“ and the question concerning the personal strengths can be answered as easily as the question concerning the date of birth.
