Overview Your level of knowledge What is the Step II assessment? How Step II adds to the understanding of the Step I framework Applying Step II concepts to coaching
Your Step II knowledge 1. This is brand new to me 2. I ve taken it 3. I ve completed training on it 4. I ve used it with some clients 5. I use it whenever I can
Step II assessment Purpose: to identify and describe a person s individuality within his/her type Origins: expanded set of items
Step II assessment provides More diversity in results one in billions Understanding how those of the same Type differ from one another Help in resolving Type indeterminacy the but I do both comment Greater trust in the results because they are closer to an accurate description
Step II individualisation by Identifying five facets of each preference pair Providing three scoring categories Interpreting facets in the context of the underlying preference Assigning additional decision-making styles based on the first two Thinking-Feeling facets
Step II individualisation by Providing three scoring categories Left pole (E, S, T, J) o Extraversion: Initiating, Expressive, Gregarious, Active, Enthusiastic Right pole (I, N, F, P) o Intuition: Abstract, Imaginative, Conceptual, Theoretical, Original Midzone
Step II individualisation by Interpreting those facets as In-preference (IPS): score of 2-5 on same side as underlying preference o Initiating Extravert Out-of-preference (OOPS): score of 2-5 on opposite side of underlying preference o Initiating Introvert Midzone: score of 0 or 1 to either side
Why a Midzone? Facets have fewer items and are more narrowly defined Identifying an accurate statistical midpoint is not possible Respondents with scores of 0 and 1 report specific, consistent behaviours and attitudes that differ markedly from respondents with scores of 2-5
Step II individualisation by Assigning additional decision-making styles based on a matrix of scores on Logical-Empathetic and Reasonable-Compassionate
Step II individualisation by Identifying five facets of each preference pair Providing three scoring categories Left pole (E, S, T, J) Right pole (I, N, F, P) Midzone Interpreting those facets as In-preference Out-of-preference Midzone Assigning additional decision-making styles based on the first two Thinking-Feeling facets
