Personal Interests,
Attitudes and Values
The WHY of your
Actions
What is it that causes you to move into action? What are the drivers of
your behavior? What activities, careers and conversations inspire a "passion"
within you, causing you to want to become involved? The Personal Interests,
Attitudes and Values Assessment measures the WHY of your actions, leading
to an understanding of what drives your behavior and the attitudes that
move you into action.
What is an Attitude?
In 1928, Eduard Spranger wrote a book entitled "Types of Men".
He identified six attitudes or world-views. These attitudes are a type
of window through which we view the world and seek fulfillment in our
lives. If we are participating in a discussion, activity or career that
is in line with our attitudes, we will value the experience. Conversely,
if we are in a conversation, activity or career that is against our dominant
attitudes, we will be indifferent or even negative toward the experience,
possibly causing stress.
The Six Attitudes
- Theoretical: A
passion to discover, systematize and analyze; a search for knowledge.
- Utilitarian: A
passion to gain return on investment of time, resources and money.
- Aesthetic: A passion
to experience the impressions of the world and achieve form and harmony
in life; self-actualization.
- Social: A passion
to eliminate hate and conflict in the world and to assist others in
becoming all they can be.
- Individualistic:
A passion to achieve position and to use that position to affect and
influence others.
- Traditional: A
passion to seek out and pursue the higher meaning in life and achieve
a system for living.
The Assessment
The Personal Interests, Attitudes and Values Assessment measures your
responses in each of the six attitudes. The computerized report shows
each of the six attitudes compared to a National Average. You are provided
with information on the WHY of your actions which, with application, can
tremendously impact your valuing of life.
A New "Valuing"
of Life
Once you know the attitudes that drive your actions, you will immediately
be able to understand the causes of conflict. If you are in a career you
are enjoying, or if you are finding little satisfaction in your career,
you will understand why.
You will understand
and appreciate your relationships as you recognize the attitudes of other
people. You will see how their attitudes might interact with your own.
