How is the LIFO® Method different?

The LIFO® Method has so many advantages over other behavioural instruments:

• It does not suggest in any way, shape or form that there is only one good style of working and behaving,

• The results of the survey are only the beginning – not the end of the process as with many other diagnostic tools,

• No-one is forced into a narrow stereotype or measured against pre-chosen criteria,

• The survey also reflects the differences between someone’s intentions, their actual behaviour and how they believe they come across to others,

• The LIFO® Method emphasises the strategies that can give each person the edge – it does not just hold up a mirror, but also suggests practical strategies to improve performance,

• Life Orientations® is values-based and so goes to the heart of motivation and what makes someone tick,

• It explains how someone operates in normal and stressful circumstances,

• The Method can help tease out where communication is going wrong and offers solutions,

• It celebrates strengths and throws light on why excessive use of those strengths doesn’t deliver intended outcomes, and
