EQ, IQ and RQ: Relationship Intelligence At Work

When organizations want to thrive, they need to help teams foster strong connections with their colleagues. People can work together productively over time by understanding how their personalities align (or contrast) with their colleagues. With this insight, the team can adjust how they approach each other for better results. This Relationship Intelligence

Core Strengths® training is powered by the Strength Deployment Inventory (SDI) 2.0 personality assessment. With Core Strengths training and SDI 2.0, we see that the core “you” is present in every situation and interaction. 

And, we see more. 

The strengths you use can change based on the people you are with, your goals, and the demands of the situation. Core Strengths research reveals  people find a sense of purpose within three primary motivations:

 • Concern for People: People who are motivated by the protection, growth, and welfare of others. They have a strong desire to help others who can genuinely benefit.

 • Concern for Performance: People who are motivated by task accomplishment and achieving results. They have a strong desire to set goals, take decisive action, and claim earned rewards.

• Concern for Process: People who are motivated by meaningful order and thinking things through. They have a strong desire to pursue independent interests, be practical, and be fair.

You may recognize yourself in one of the three motivations, or even a blend of all three. When you are aware of your primary motivation, you can start using your area of strength to drive results and to improve relationships with your colleagues.
