The LIFO method is a practical application of behavioral science that provides strategies for promoting individual and group productivity. It helps discover our strengths, based on your behavioral preference of how to think, how to get things done, and how to deliver information. It does not label people or put them in a box.
The LIFO method focuses on strengths, and on what is right about leaders, teams, and individuals. This approach is not about changing oneself; rather, it promotes positive behavioral change by providing strategies for managing strengths effectively, resulting in greater versatility and productivity. This approach also encourages appreciating and working with others whose strengths are different. Accepting people for who they are also reduces friction and allows teams to make the most of everyone’s strengths.
Participants in this session will receive a brief assessment, the LIFO Orientations Essential Survey, via email, to be completed no later than Monday, September 9th. The session will begin with an overview of LIFO. Participants will be emailed their report during the session and have a brief break to review their results before the session resumes. Full group discussion and breakout room exercises will be utilized to further understand and apply LIFO and individual results.
