Our customers' opinion about the persolog® Personality Factor Model

Athanasios Tzampazis
Tzampazis Coaching
On the first day, my expectations were met; on the second, they were exceeded. Now I am a fan of persolog.
Michael Kimmelmann
Owner KoRheMa, Marxzell
With the persolog Personality Factor Model I always achieve special wow moments with my participants and with it I can help them in their everyday life. I use it mainly in combination with self-management in order to work out an individual strategy for each personality. The cooperation with persolog is a lot of fun and has become almost a friendship. As a trainer, I always get professional support here, and without this my switch to online seminars would have been much more difficult. Many thanks for that!
Robin Heintze
CEO of morefire
The certification has provided us with a tool that supports us in many ways - from the selection and development of employees and the composition of teams to customer care. The investment has paid off.
Markus Boxleitner
CEO of Dreiflüsse Akademie
The persolog® Personality Factor Model is an important part of our success due to its simplicity and flexibility in application. Persolog, together with its professional team, has been a loyal companion of our academy for years and every contact with them is an enrichment of experience to place our core competence specifically on the market.
Christiane Drha

The certification enables me to better evaluate and solve situations in my professional and private context. My expectations of the certification were exceeded. Friedbert Gay lives for this model and I can now understand why.
Bettina Schell
Sales Coach and CEO of PERSO-train "Erkenne.dich.selbst"
Enabling people to better understand themselves and others is important to me.
I succeed particularly well in coaching with the persolog personality model, in which the client reflects on himself and his behavior and thus makes his strengths and challenges visible. This knowledge about oneself and others helps to assess situations correctly and to improve relationships. An invaluable asset for successful TEAMS and for each individual.
Sandy Steinert
Heinrich Schmid GmbH & Co. KG
The certification as a persolog personality trainer was one of the best trainings which I have participated in so far. Beginning with the organization in the run-up, the many details in the course and the great trainer's kit and all the materials worked out to the last detail and ready for immediate use. And thanks to the terrific trainer was everything super clear and perfectly transferable into practice. Many thanks for the exciting training, which was certainly not my last with persolog.

We are sure that every person is unique!

With the persolog® Personality Factor Model Certification you receive tools that support you in better understanding the uniqueness of other people and their behavior. We follow a situational approach: We look at behavior in specific environments and situations.
Behavior can be described with the four behavioral dimensions Dominant, Influencing, Steady and Cautious. The mix of the 4 dimensions is particularly important. The goal is to determine where we stand in order to lay the foundation for the development of potential, a deeper understanding of each other and effective cooperation.
How personality tests are often meaningless for us: Especially in the area of personality development, we tend to put people into different categories. Many personality tests quickly lead to a result and suggest to people: "That's exactly who you are!" BUT: This does not help people in the long run. It is important to focus on people's situational behavior. Because that can be adapted. For this reason, we at persolog do not speak of a personality test in which one could score "good or bad", but of a personality profile that wants to describe the individual and situational behavior of people without judgment. In this way, success strategies can be developed in order to communicate better. Because: Successful people are those who can deal with other people in a way that is appropriate to the situation.

A situational theory approach:

The persolog® Personality Factor Model
Today, the persolog® Personality Factor Model is located in the area of situation-theoretical approaches. The difference to the dispositional trait theory approaches is that persolog does not claim to identify and describe distinct personality traits, but to describe situational behavior. For this purpose, the model uses the basis of these four quadrants.
