| MERIT Certification™ |
|
Future Achievement International® has developed a powerful "character-based" train-the-trainer learning platform that provides a cost-effective training and coaching process that will help organizations transform the personal leadership efficiencies of their managers, supervisors and employees. More than ever organizations are realizing that a person's character has a direct impact on their culture as well as their human capital risks and financial bottom-line. Therefore, it is of vital importance for organizations to structure a sustainable character-driven leadership learning environment. Proprietary Learning Methodology: Future Achievement International has researched and developed a proprietary character-based, "inside-out" learning model that is focused upon first understanding the individual character competencies and behavioral traits of a person by applying a proprietary character and behavior assessment process, known as the MERIT Profile™. The MERIT Profile is generated from a skillfully constructed 60-item survey providing a picture of an individual's present character and behavioral DNA. |
|
ü Each MERIT Profile provides both descriptive statements and numerical scores regarding 3 character categories (Attitudes, Beliefs and Commitments), 4 behavioral traits and 10 character competencies. ü The insights gained by administering a MERIT Profile regarding an individual's Attitudes, Beliefs, and Commitments are very important for the hiring process, employee development strategies and retaining valuable employees. The MERIT Profile reveals many elements of a person's character and behavior profile that directly contribute to the organization's culture and business results - both positively and negatively! ü Once an organization understands the character and behavioral DNA of its leaders and employees (human capital assets), it then can maximize a sustainable "character-based" learning model that can be internally applied to help empower each individual toward maximum performance, productivity and a high level of sustained proficiency. |

Properly assessing and developing the character competencies and behavioral traits of people will enhance their overall performance and productivity… which lead to organizational effectiveness! |

The Missing Piece to the Human Capital Puzzle! |
 |
|
In today's competitive, multi-cultural workforce environment, traditional human capital development is simply ineffective. A person's IQ (Intelligence Quotient) or EQ (Emotional Quotient) are important…but what is missing is the assessment and development of a person's CQ (Character Quotient).
CQ is a third dimension of understanding the DNA of human capital. CQ represents the elements of a person's profile revealing their underlying attitudes, beliefs and commitments that shape their behavior. CQ is the foundational character base from which strong emotional intelligence should spring. |

The DNA of Human Capital Development
Attitudes - Beliefs - Commitments |
|
A person's character and behavioral DNA is comprised of certain Attitudes, Beliefs and Commitments that are vital to how they maximize their personal and professional growth. Like a computer, human beings need an "operating system" that provides a practical methodology to enable them to leverage their unique gifts. |
 |
|
v Attitudes are a pattern of emotions and actions that indicate a person's mental state and disposition.
v Beliefs are the mental framework in which a person forms their opinions, judgment and acceptance of what is true. v Commitments are the mental framework in which a person makes choices to act in a certain and consistent manner with their attitudes and beliefs. |

Empowering The Right People Are The Greatest Asset…
To Any Organization! |
|
Sustainable Training Process: The Developing Authentic Leader Train-The-Trainer program provides valuable learning tools and processes to help professional trainers become capable of delivering an Authentic Leadership program to managers/supervisors, as well as a program titled Achieving Authentic Success® for the general employee population. Additionally, each trainer will be provided with a cost-effective process to help each manager and supervisor assess and develop 10 core character competencies that will substantially impact their personal performance and productivity. |
|
The 10 vital areas assessed and developed are: |
 1. Attitude (Makes a BIG difference regarding performance and productivity) 2. Personal motivation habits (purpose driven, goal-oriented, timeliness, responsible versus irresponsible)
3. Self-esteem issues (the more a person is encouraged and believes in their capabilities…the greater their overall productivity and performance)
4. Ethics and integrity (basic honesty can go a long way, doing the right thing for the right reason and making good decisions - - TRUST!)
5. Communication skills (listening, resolving conflicts, respect for others)
6. Life balance issues (personal and professional...critical in the workplace today)
7. Teamwork (how to contribute to the overall good of the team and organization)
8. Dealing with worry, fears and challenges (overcoming barriers and obstacles)
9. Handling stress and change (fatigue and burnout lead to poor productivity and performance)
10. Staying focused and committed (realigning when necessary, understanding the cost of quitting) |

Calculate The Costs… |
 |

Neglecting to provide a character and behavioral assessment and a personal leadership development process can result in unnecessary costs to any organization. These costs typically come in the form of hiring expenses, employee training dollars, lost productivity, human resources conflicts and disruptions among teams of employees.
