Personal Strengths is a global company providing training, consulting and certification
in SDI® (Strength Deployment Inventory®) - a proven self-awareness learning resource focused
on increasing relationship effectiveness, reducing conflict costs and driving individual, team and
organisational performance with a positive, strengths based approach.
Why Strength Deployment Inventory?
SDI promotes interpersonal insights that are crucial to improving any situation where people interact.
The SDI is an effective way to seamlessly integrate relationship building, communication and conflict
management skills into nearly any organisational learning or leadership development program.
Dramatic improvement in team and personal effectiveness is possible when people are empowered with
an understanding of each other’s relating strengths — both when things are going well and when there is
conflict.
SDI Certification Training will show you how to
• Honour differences by gaining insight into the unique way we each use and value
different strengths.
• De-personalise conflict in a non-threatening easily understood way.
• Provide an individual and team snapshot— going beyond behaviour to reveal each person’s deep seated motivational values.
The Strength Deployment Inventory (SDI) provides a window into what drives you and how this
influences the way you relate with others and what drives others — an understanding that helps people
communicate in a way that achieves the results they desire. Used by organisations for over
40 years, it is a proven, easy to administer, experiential tool presenting common sense concepts in
a highly visual manner.
