LAB Profile Career Assessment
Some of our most difficult decisions are about what kind of job we like or should have.
For most of us it takes a lifetime to understand enough about ourselves to know if we will match up to new careers, jobs, academic choices or work environments.
We offer a profiling system as part of our career management coaching called the Language and Behavioural (LAB) Profile. LAB Profile is an advanced communication tool based on 25 years of research with people in thousands of jobs all over the world.
LAB Profile provides unique insights into the below-conscious motivational patterns we have in various contexts. Unlike a psychometric test, the LAB profile is carried out over the phone or face to face in normal conversation with a qualified LAB Profile Practioner and takes about 20 – 30 minutes to complete. This personal approach allows you to talk about your work in a relaxed manner without having to sit and complete a test!
"I found your profiling to be very in-depth and believe it to be an accurate account of how I feel currently and how I work." Dr. Mark O'Connor PhD
How does the LAB profiling work?
There are 14 traits in the LAB Profile - 6 Motivation traits and 8 Working traits.
- The Motivation traits show how people trigger their motivation and behaviour in the given context of work.
- The Working traits identify what sustains their motivation.
There is nothing good or bad about a particular trait – it is a matter of understanding which is the most appropriate in the particular context of work for you.
Coaching using LAB Profile
Once the profile report has been completed, we work with you on a 1:1 basis to help you to use this information to guide your most important career decisions.
We understand that making decisions about big changes in your life is important. Changing your job or changing your career without enough information is risky.
You owe it to yourself to get the best, most significant information possible to make such decisions. The most critical part of deciding to change your career or change your job is "you." You need to know if "you" fit in the situations that you are considering.
"Katherine brought a great wealth of knowledge, understanding and focus to our outplacement sessions. The LAB profile proved to be spot-on; the advice around developing my CV and networking was solid and well thought out; and the skills analysis accurate; most importantly I found her to be incredibly perceptive.
At each of our meetings, Katherine’s style and knowledge base gave me the confidence to take my career to the next level. I have no hesitation in recommending Recrion’s work to anyone who is seeking professional, empathetic and knowledgeable career coaching."
