Acorn is proud to partner with a variety of organizations to offer our clients assessments that help individuals learn more about themselves and how they can work with others. Members of our team are certified to facilitate the following programs:

TRACOM Group’s SOCIAL STYLE and Versatility Assessment

• SOCIAL STYLE is an assessment tool that focuses on interpersonal effectiveness through the understanding of human behavior. A learner’s SOCIAL STYLE is identified through a multi-rater assessment, which helps them understand their needs and growth actions while teaching them to leverage versatility toward others for personal and organizational success.

Clifton Strengths

• Gallup’s tool is designed to help uncov­er one’s giv­en tal­ents and strengths. The assess­ment is self-rated, meaning an indi­vid­ual com­pletes the assess­ment to establish their strengths. The Clifton Strengths assessment can be used to incorporate strengths-based development into all working teams. 

Everything DiSC

• This assessment helps individuals and teams gain insights into their communication styles and work dynamics. Whether your organization has used DiSC for years or you are new to this tool, Everything DiSC will help bring your organizational development to the next level, improving team-building, leadership training, and interpersonal relationships to enhance overall workplace effectiveness.

The Five Behaviors

• A comprehensive development solution designed to improve collaboration, trust, and productivity within teams. It leverages the principles of Patrick Lencioni’s best-selling book ​“The Five Dysfunctions of a Team” and offers practical tools and assessments to help teams overcome common challenges and achieve peak performance.

Teamwork and personal development can often be overlooked or deprioritized due to the monotony of an individual’s daily responsibilities. Collaborating with individuals outside our inner circles who have walked the same path can lead us to new, innovative ways of problem-solving and strategizing.
