How can you use the Circumplex to improve organizational adaptability and effectiveness?

The Circumplex is the driving force behind HSI’s integrated system for organizational measurement, feedback, and development. Our Circumplex-based surveys measure the factors that drive performance at multiple levels throughout organizations. These surveys include:

Linked together by the Circumplex, these assessments provide a structured system for taking a close look at an organization to decide what’s working, what’s not, and how to fix it.

Constructive Styles

Passive/Defensive Styles

Aggressive/Defensive Styles

 

A Well-Rounded Solution

HSI’s Circumplex surveys are the tools you need to initiate, guide, and monitor organizational change initiatives. Use our integrated system to:

  • Analyze and understand the organization at different levels: its culture and subcultures, the climate of groups and teams, and the personal styles of leaders and members.
  • Combine the feedback to identify areas of concern: counter-productive norms and styles that work against integration and adaptability and, in turn, reduce effectiveness.
  • Decide how the organization could—and should—perform: identify targets in terms of member satisfaction and engagement, cooperation and coordination within and across teams, and organizational service quality, growth, and innovativeness.
  • Identify the Circumplex styles that are holding the organization back: and, more importantly, the styles that should be promoted and strengthened to meet performance objectives.
  • Give members the information and tools needed to initiate targeted and consistent changes: with changes at the organizational level reinforcing those at the individual and team levels (and vice versa).
  • Profile and monitor the organization’s progress over time: use follow-up assessments to gauge progress, redirect change efforts, and link changes in culture to improvements in performance.
