The Interstrength® Method
The Interstrength® Method provides a common language for understanding our natural personality diversity and applying personality differences. Through this multifaceted model, we can begin to see how people are alike and how they are different—with fundamental temperament differences that can lead to “stands,” value agendas, and fixed interaction styles—as well as how they learn, make decisions, and develop. This model describes natural preferences that lead to various ways of perceiving and ways of deciding that are often critical for an organization’s success yet, if not understood, can be the primary source of misunderstandings and miscommunications. Through The Self-Discovery Process® we create safe environments for individuals to explore, understand, and apply our natural preferences.
The Five Principles of The Interstrength® Method:
- Meeting the Client at Their View of the World
When clients are met at their view of the world, there is better communication and less resistance to change.
- Positive Regard
Effective practitioners strive to become aware of-and confront their own biases. Then they work to control for biases, presenting all patterns in a positive regard.
- Positive Connotation
When people use personality type to reframe behavior, they find positive benefits to what had previously been seen as negative.
- Ability to Go to Observer Mode
In order to untangle complicated relationships and communications, we need to be able to talk about what has occurred, or is occurring, without projecting our own values and belief systems into the situation.
- Rhythm of Presentation/Adult Learning Principles
Effective presentation of material must incorporate models and methods that value the diverse needs of each individual.
