CPI

PI® is considered one of the best personality inventories internationally and is the most common choice among Romanian specialists when they want to evaluate personality as a predictor of work performance and the potential for learning. CPI® is available in self-declarative form for the assessment of normal or quasi-normal adult personality, providing exhaustive results corresponding to an administration duration of only 25-35 minutes.

The ICC was built from the outset with the intention of providing a clear and effective overview of personal and professional characteristics, motivation and thinking styles, whose applicability is found in a multitude of situations and contexts, from applications such as personnel selection, analysis of leadership skills, creative skills, diagnosis of groups/work teams, etc, vocational orientation, career development and reaching quasi-clinical and social adaptability uses (deviance and delinquency diagnosis). It is designed by empirical derivation and is based on the cuboid model, based on the intersection of three vectors (Extraversion-Introversion, Orientation to/against the norm, Level of update).

Since it has been specifically designed to assess the management and leadership potential, this tool is perfect when it is necessary to identify the strengths and areas of development of a person. On the other hand, the tool can easily be used to understand and facilitate interactions in a group of people. In Romanian organizations, CPI® is used for a variety of applications in the area of leadership and development, as well as for identifying talents. The questionnaire is also highly effective for individual or group coaching, management training programmes and global performance improvement initiatives.
