Assessments & Development Solutions
Insight Is Only the Beginning.
An assessment should do more than generate a report.
At Diversified Educational Concepts (DEC), we believe the real value of an assessment comes from what happens after the results are received. Understanding a personality preference, conflict style, interpersonal need, or career interest is useful—but development occurs when participants learn how those insights influence their communication, leadership, decision-making, relationships, teamwork, and professional growth.
That is why DEC connects assessment results directly to development and application.
Our assessment experiences help participants move from:
ASSESS → UNDERSTAND → APPLY → DEVELOP → GROW
Rather than simply providing participants with a report, DEC can combine assessments with individual debriefs, facilitated workshops, team-development sessions, coaching conversations, action planning, leadership development, and customized learning experiences.
Whether the goal is to strengthen an individual leader, improve team dynamics, address workplace conflict, enhance communication, support career development, or build organizational capability, we help turn assessment insights into practical strategies participants can use beyond the assessment experience.
Assess. Understand. Develop.
Professional Assessments
Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI®)
Help participants better understand personality preferences and how those preferences can influence communication, decision-making, leadership, problem-solving, change, and teamwork.
Ideal for: Leadership development, communication, team building, professional development, and organizational effectiveness.
MBTI® Step II™
Go beyond the four-letter personality type to explore the individual differences that exist within each MBTI preference.
Step II can provide deeper insight into how individuals communicate, approach change, make decisions, manage responsibilities, and interact with others.
Ideal for: Advanced leadership development, executive development, coaching, individual development, and established teams.
Thomas-Kilmann Conflict Mode Instrument (TKI®)
Help participants understand how they typically approach conflict and when different conflict-handling strategies may be most effective.
Participants explore the five TKI modes—Competing, Collaborating, Compromising, Avoiding, and Accommodating—and learn how to use conflict more productively.
Ideal for: Conflict management, leadership, supervisors, teams, communication, and workplace relationships.
FIRO-B®
Explore how interpersonal needs influence workplace relationships and team interactions.
FIRO-B provides insight into preferences related to Inclusion, Control, and Affection, helping participants better understand how they engage with others and what they may expect from workplace relationships.
Ideal for: Team development, leadership development, relationship building, communication, and coaching.
Strong Interest Inventory®
Help individuals explore interests and how those interests may relate to career fields, educational pathways, and professional environments.
