Improve communication and reduce conflict

Reduce unhealthy team conflict through communication

Trust between colleagues is won and lost in communication, and it’s the cause of significant workplace conflicts. But most teams don’t have the tools to understand how to better their communication.

Birkman helps team members by improving awareness of communication styles, which help people understand each other’s strengths and preferences to adapt communication styles when needed – and avoid potential conflict.

Team collaboration

Redefining collaboration

Collaboration is the lifeblood of team performance. When challenges and opportunities arise, the sharing of ideas determines how to tackle them best. Birkman highlights how variations in personalities and perspectives is paramount to valuable idea collaboration for any team to ignite innovation and align in a forward direction.

How to Have Healthy Conflict that Improves Team Performance

Conflict. It's not only part of working on a team -- it's actually necessary for teams to drive their best results. But how do you get through it without fragmenting relationships?

Build a space where innovation thrives

The road to innovation is paved with calculated risks – and usually some mistakes. That’s why it’s critical to create an environment of psychological safety where team members can share ideas without the fear of judgment and criticism.

With Birkman Insights, leaders discover how to create the trust teams need to voice concerns and say what needs to be said to keep projects moving successfully and avoid unnecessary conflict along the way.

Motivating the new age

Keep teams engaged and motivated so they can bring their best efforts to the table

Team performance always suffers when people become disengaged or simply find no joy in their day to day responsibilities.

By understanding your team members’ unique workplace Needs and Interests, you have the means to keep them engaged and aligned not only with their daily tasks but with the team and organizational goals.

Can you provide information about the validity and reliability of The Birkman Method?

The Birkman Method assessment is reliable. The assessment's high test-retest reliability ensures consistent results over time, while its high internal consistency reliability reflects strong correlations among the assessment's questions, yielding reliable measurement of traits. These two types of reliability establish the assessment's overall accuracy and dependability.

The Birkman Method assessment is also valid. The assessment's content covers the intended construct domains of interest through research-based development, ensuring content validity. It demonstrates its face validity through the subjective evaluation of the constructs measured by its respondents. Additionally, the assessment demonstrates convergent construct validity and divergent construct validity, respectively, by positively correlating with similar measures and negatively correlating with measures of unrelated constructs. Lastly, The Birkman Method has criterion-related validity through established relationships with various work-related outcomes, such as job performance, career satisfaction, leadership effectiveness, and team dynamics. These five types of validity together establish the assessment's overall validity.

What certifying programs is The Birkman Method Certification accredited with?

The Birkman Method Certification experience can be used toward the following two certifying programs:

International Coach Federation (ICF) – Continuing Coach Education (CCE) and Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) – Professional Development Credits (PDCs)
