Birkman Learning System

This Birkman Learning Event reveals how Birkman reports can tell their own story when the Birkman professional takes an artistic rather than a scientific approach. The purpose of this Birkman Learning Event is two-fold: First, we introduce a creative approach to the interpretation of Birkman Method reports. Second, we introduce a comprehensive method of Birkman analysis designed for those few especially difficult Birkman reports to interpret. It will certainly depend on how much time and how many years you have given Birkman interpretation as to the “value added” nature of this discussion. We hope it helps those who may benefit the most and reinforces the basics for those who have many years of consulting experience. In one sense, you interpret tricky Birkmans in the same way you would interpret any Birkman report– but with much more preparation, situation analysis, in-depth confirming dialogue, and by applying a creative, open-ended, and flexible interpretation method. Simply stated, you do what you usually do, but you do it better. Our suggestion is that you use this approach and modify it to fit your style and your clients. Consider this approach for its heuristic value rather than a verbatim feedback script. Get ready to have some fun! Read more
