Did you know that by taking a look at differences between the behavioral work style and home style you will be able to predict very specific problems that might lead an employee to seek another job?

Most people adjust their style at work based on perceptions of what is needed for them to survive and thrive. We have found that many employees cause themselves unnecessary stress simply because they misunderstood what was really needed to succeed in their position. Depending on the job and the area of adjustment, the person’s own natural style might actually be their best asset!

Then, there are cases where the personality for success in the job itself is incompatible with the style of the person. For instance, a person who really prefers a steady work pace and concentrates best on one thing at a time will feel overwhelmed in a multi-taking, fast-paced position, and a person who likes to tackle many creative projects at once will be unhappy in a job that requires careful attention to detailed and unvarying procedures.

Oftentimes, a simple adjustment in the work environment or job description will re-engage key talent at a much higher level.
