Friday, June 19, 9:00 – 9:45 am EDT
with Dr. Antoine Eid, Dr. Ellen Zimmerman, PCC, SP, ACTC, and Yolanda Yu, MCC, ACTC
In this session, three experts will each present and discuss an assessment, offering insights into their use to team coaching:
- Meet Yourself™ – Dr. Antoine Eid. The world’s only personality assessment and coaching ecosystem that combines the three sciences of Behavioral Genetics (DNA Test), Neuroscience (Thinking Motivators), and Behavioral Science (Acquired Competencies). It provides insights and tools into why people think and behave in certain ways.
- FIRO-B (Fundamental Interpersonal Relations Orientation-Behavior) – Yolanda Yu. This is a 54-item assessment developed by Will Schutz in 1958 based on social need theory. The instrument reveals how underlying interpersonal needs for participation, influence, and closeness drive behavior, and can be used to identify relationship tensions to cultivate highly effective teams.
- Wiley DiSC – Dr. Ellen Zimmerman. The Wiley DiSC assessment supports team coaching by providing the team and coach with a common language as well as a basis to begin conversation about areas of potential development. Respect is enhanced through an awareness of the priorities each style brings to the team.
Dr. Antoine Eid is the mind behind Meet Yourself™, a doctor in neuroscience and behavioral genetics who turns DNA into insights and self-awareness into performance. Dr Antoine Eid doesn’t just talk about potential, he decodes it. A highly intuitive leadership development expert blending behavioral genetics, neuroscience, and practical coaching applications, he challenges how we understand ourselves and each other.
Dr. Ellen Zimmerman is an Executive and Leadership Coach, working with individuals and teams with a focus on the areas that matter most, communication, leadership, human relations, and strategic direction. Ellen specializes in communication skills for difficult conversations as well as real world scenarios that support leadership skill development.
