In profiling the people side of process/work re-engineering...

The Forte Advantage
Because Forte profiles who the people and teams are . . . then identifies how the individuals and their teams are adapting and how they are being perceived, you get the human side of your organization's productivity issues and constructive advice for the improvements you seek.

In giving "prescriptive" advice...

The Forte Advantage
Because you receive a specific communication strategy every 30 days in each individual and interaction report, you get a "prescription" on how to become more effective with each person and environment. This is essential for successful rapport building in sales, customer service, performance coaching, influencing, presentations, etc.

In enhancing appraisal feedback systems...

The Forte Advantage
Because Forte provides updates every 30 days, you can enhance ongoing coaching for greater productivity.

In addition to getting feedback from anonymous "others" in your 360-degree appraisals, you receive a proactive, constructive relationship strategy with each of the other significant individuals.

Many of our clients use Forte as a positive follow-up to their existing 360-degree programs.

Action
In tracking progress...

The Forte Advantage
Because you can update your adapting profile every 30 days, you can track your progress and measure your productivity regularly. The Forte system prints out longitudinal graphs that show the adapting and perceiver trends, as well as the logic, stamina and goals index trends. This information can be developed for both the individual and team environments.

Action
In accelerating team building...

The Forte Advantage
Because you can generate team composite profiles, you can accelerate team building through the specific communication strategies for each team member and track team(s) progress with their task(s), with each other, and with other teams.

Action
In anticipating potential "burn-out" or "rust-out"...

The Forte Advantage
Because Forte tracks an individual's and a team's stamina levels and goal attainment index, unproductive shifts are part of an early warning system -- flagging a need for proactive mid-course corrections.

Action
In learning top performance & coaching patterns of success...

The Forte Advantage
Because Forte lets you validate a profile for top performance (usually from common Forte adapting patterns), you can use the profile for recruiting and coaching new hires and incumbents in ways to adapt for increased productivity. All team members know what communication styles work best... up front... and team leadership can also change their coaching strategies "on a dime" as needs develop. We all are adapting to others and environments throughout the day... Forte fosters flexibility into the fabric of an organization's culture.

The Forte Profile Model Survey lets you create the "ideal" communication style for a position so you can improve retention and productivity by hiring and coaching the right person the first time.

Action
In enhancing other communication style instruments...

The Forte Advantage
Because Forte provides adapting update reports every 30 days, it transcends the static, singular report other instruments generate. It takes into consideration that individuals are always adapting to circumstances in their environment (home, work, manager, teammates, customers, etc.), and provides "prescriptive" advice for increasing interpersonal effectiveness and productivity to each specific individual, environment, or both.
