Why is Kolbe™ the world’s foremost predictive tool?
The Kolbe System™ offers a unique approach to understanding and predicting workplace behaviour. Kolbe demonstrates how to leverage workplace behaviour and “instincts” to the benefit of the individual, team, and organization.
Kolbe’s innovation — the third dimension
Most predictives are limited to two mental dimensions — affective, (feeling/attitude) and cognitive, (thinking/knowing). Kolbe revolutionizes prescriptive instruments by strictly focusing on conative (doing/instinctive), the critical third dimension.
There’s more to performance than what you know and want to do
With the emphasis on learning specific skills, most training programs overly emphasize cognition.
Here’s the flaw with that strict focus. While people can possess great cognitive skills, when the affective part (the desire or the attitude) is missing, you’ll have disgruntled staff who refuse to give their all. Powerful skills are just underused or wasted altogether.
Similarly, a strong affect (with low cognition) results in someone who can’t wait to get things done, but isn’t really sure how.
Don’t tell me — Show me!
Conation, the third dimension, refers to the way one instinctively and always fulfills a task. As the mantra says, we must “walk the talk.” The true measure of performance of one’s skills and one’s attitude is in the doing, the sole focus of the Kolbe assessments.
