We are thrilled to introduce a new addition to our collection of short online courses via Teams this September - Self-Awareness with TMP. This course utilises the Team Management System (TMS), a psychometric profiling tool to boost self-awareness for personal growth and leadership, enhancing communication in the workplace, and cultivating stronger relationships among team members.

The Importance of Self-Awareness to Personal Growth and Leadership

Self-awareness is the ability to recognise and understand one's own emotions, thoughts, and values, and how they influence behavior. It is a critical skill that lays the foundation for effective leadership and personal development. When individuals are self-aware, they can make informed decisions, communicate more effectively, and build stronger relationships with colleagues.

In the context of the workplace, self-awareness can lead to improved communication habits and a deeper understanding of others. This understanding is essential for navigating complex interpersonal dynamics and fostering a collaborative work environment. By participating in our Self-Awareness course, individuals will gain insights into their own preferences and behaviors, enabling them to make meaningful changes that can have a real impact on their professional lives.

The Team Management System

The Team Management System is a psychometric profiling tool that has been utilised by millions of individuals and organisations worldwide. Developed in Brisbane, TMS embodies 40 years of research and practice in psychometric profiling to aid professional development, team building, and organisational change. What sets TMS apart from other psychometric tools is its ability to distinguish between workplace preferences and personal preferences. This differentiation allows individuals to cultivate a more nuanced self-understanding, thereby enhancing their self-awareness. Importantly, the self-awareness gained through TMS also helps individuals improve their interpersonal awareness, empathy, and understanding of others.

By focusing on workplace preferences, TMS provides a comprehensive view of how individuals operate in the work environment. This understanding is invaluable for HR professionals and team leaders who are looking to build better teams and enhance workplace relationships. The insights gained from TMS can help individuals identify their strengths and areas for improvement, ultimately leading to more effective communication and collaboration.
