Organizations too can be benefitted in building leadership capabilities, improve performance, manage change, understand the value of differences and smoothly get on to the mode of transformation.

Scientific, reliable and valid instruments help in giving appropriate and adequate insights on various aspects of human behaviour and organization health. This entire approach is based on psychometric assessments, process facilitation and coaching.

Individuals can work to recognise the real options before them, in work and in life. They can then have an informed decision which transforms positively, both themselves and the most valuable elements of their environment.

Organisations get an opportunity to work through their people, by defining and aligning on human behaviours that create culture, performance and success, and then by scientifically measuring and building those behaviours.

Following are some of the tools which are used considering the customized need of an individual or an organization.

	The MBTI® is a powerfully versatile solution that can be effectively utilized in a wide range of milieus including:
Uses	Career coaching: Understanding which works skills/environments complement different personality types can help individuals make better-informed choices regarding which career paths may make the best use of their preferences. Conflict management: The MBTI® highlights areas for potential stress given specific personality types, and can be used to maximize efficiency by working around these challenge areas. Leadership training: Differing leadership preferences can be studied and understood in the context of personality types. Doing this also highlight where leaders' teams may be missing out or facing challenges due to his/her leadership style. Relationship building: By making individuals aware of the natural differences between them, the MBTI® helps them appreciate what the other person can bring to the table, and how best to relate so that their mutual strengths are tapped into. Self-awareness: The MBTI® works as an awareness tool, emphasizing individuals' natural strengths, which may or may not be expressed externally, while also calling out potential areas for development which don't come to them naturally.
	FIRO-B® is a personality instrument that maximizes interpersonal effectiveness by assessing how peoples' needs for participation, influence, and closeness form their team's success.
Uses	Team building and team development: Identifying likely sources of compatibility or tension; identifying leadership style; aiding effective decision making; improving communication, openness and trust; and resolving conflicts Individual development: Increasing self-awareness and interpersonal effectiveness as part of the coaching process, career development or personal growth Relationship Counselling: Identifying and resolving possible sources of incompatibility and dissatisfaction Selection and placement: The FIRO-B tool can help to structure interviews and assess likely team roles or interpersonal behaviour, but only in combination with other assessment techniques.
