An instrument to measure an individual's stage of personal power. This profile follows the ideas and behaviors described in Janet Hagberg's book Real Power: Stages of Personal Power in Organizations.

The book describes six progressive stages of personal power: Powerlessness, Power by Association, Power by Achievement, Power by Reflection, Power by Purpose and Power by Wisdom.

The authors designed this profile: 1) to provide individual insights on stages of personal power, 2) as a preparatory tool for courses in leadership, power and management, 3) as a discussion tool between managers and employees, and 4) as an assessment tool in the course of personal renewal. You answer 72 questions on a scale of 1-5 (1=Not descriptive of me to 5=Very descriptive of me) and plot your scores on an answer grid.

Conflict Resolution Tool

Conflict Resolution Tool (CRT)

This is an instrument to measure individual styles for resolving conflict. We have preferred ways of dealing—or not dealing—with conflict and may of us fear that our approach might be inadequate. Few of us are willing to acknowledge this fear, especially when the issue is conflict in the workplace.

The Conflict Resolution Tool equips you to be more successful in conflict situations. It identifies your strengths and your backup styles under stress. The Tool reveals the unique qualities you bring to conflict resolution. It introduces you to an emotional regulation sill called STOP!—stop, look, listen, choose—a tool to help you approach conflict with confidence.

The four Conflict Resolution Styles are Asserters, Minimizers, Diverters and Avoiders. To give you an idea of how they differ, here are some of the descriptive phrases from the Tool.

ASSERTERS
• Naturals at stirring things up
• Take their involvement in conflict personally
• Are task oriented but can lack empathy
• Are committed to resolution

MINIMIZERS
• Naturals at calming things down
• Take their involvement in conflict personally
• Empathize but can lack task orientation
• Are committed to harmony
DIVERTERS
• Naturals at stirring things up
• Stay personally detached from the conflict
• Are fun and lively but distract group from the issues
• Are committed to activity
AVOIDERS
• Naturals at calming things down
• Stay personally detached from the conflict
• Draw ideas to the conflict
• Prefer analysis and emotional detachment

Cost:
The Conflict Resolution Tool costs $7.95 each.  There are discounts for larger orders.  There is a 10% discount if you order 41 to 70, a 15% discount if you order 71-125 and a 20% discount if you order 126 or more.  If you have an order for 500 or more, call for additional discounts.  The discount will be automatically computed when you place your order.
