Reinforcement Tools…The Five Behaviors™ Progress Report and Comparison Reports

The Progress Report highlights areas of greatest improvement and decline, offers productive points of discussion, and provides an action plan to help teams prioritize and set specific goals. You’ll be able to compare how a team’s performance has changed over time and highlights areas of greatest improvement and of greatest decline. The Progress Report is comprised of nine sections including:

  • Your Team’s Survey Results
  • Points of Discussion
  • Action Plan
  • Identification of The Team’s Priorities for Improvements

Comparison Reports are follow-up reports that can be created for any two participants to illustrate their similarities and differences. Based on data from the personality items in The Five Behaviors assessment, the reports are organized around The Five Behaviors model and illustrate two continua per behavior. The research-validated comparison reports can be used to continue to instill The Five Behaviors model and language and to emphasize the importance of the behaviors for both individual relationships and team functioning.
