By explaining how these factors fit together and work off each other, The Birkman Method becomes your guide to a deeper self-awareness that can help you attain more-inspiring leadership, better team harmony, and higher goals for you personally and throughout any organization.

From the rear cover

Whether you're wondering if you are in the right career, looking to change job roles, or trying to reduce conflict and improve relationships, you must begin by clearly understanding your own interests, personal behaviors, and motivations.

Used by millions of people worldwide, the Birkman Method is the only personality assessment to go beyond the behavior we can see to reveal the critical "DNA" underneath that drives productivity and job satisfaction. The Birkman delves deeply into such aspects of your personality as your communication style, response to incentives, ability to deal with change, and relationship with authority. These factors together show what motivates and ultimately drives you. Once you identify them, you can readily spot the triggers for stress that derail you on your worst days, and figure out how to maximize your potential when you're at your best.

Each copy of The Birkman Method includes one free online Birkman assessment and personal report, which the book will help you interpret to better understand your individual needs, triggers, and strengths. Armed with your results, you will see the unique value you bring to your workplace, family, and community--and ultimately how to live up to your own highest potential.

The Birkman Method is a guide to achieving more inspiring leadership, better team harmony, and higher individual achievement, for you personally and throughout any organization.
