Seven situations where PERS6NɅ makes a real difference

1. Manage better
Effective management is not based on a universal method, but on the balance between performance expectations and relationship quality — something the Blake and Mouton Managerial Grid has formalized for several decades. PERS6NɅ goes further: it identifies each manager’s spontaneous management style (directive, participative, consensual or autonomous), their natural strengths, and their areas of vigilance under pressure. A manager with a “relationship-based consensus” style, for example, naturally creates trust and cooperation — but may need a practical lever to make firm decisions without damaging the relationship when the situation requires it.
 

2. Motivate an employee
Each personality type has distinct motivational drivers — emotional recognition for one person, autonomy and impact for another, structure and quality criteria for a third. PERS6NɅ documents these drivers individually, rather than applying the same motivation policy to an entire team — an approach that may work well for some people and be counterproductive for others.
 

3. Manage time
Time management is not simply a matter of personal organization: it depends directly on how each individual functions. PERS6NɅ identifies each profile’s relationship with time — planned anticipation, responsiveness to context, the need to step back before acting — so that working rhythms can be adjusted rather than imposing the same pace on an entire team.
 

4. Communicate better within the team
The same instruction, delivered in exactly the same way, can be received very differently depending on each person’s perception filter. PERS6NɅ details, for each type, the meeting formats in which the person performs best, what they contribute to the group, and what puts them in difficulty (noise, ambiguity, rigidity, isolation...). A manager who knows that an employee performs better one-to-one than in a large group meeting can adjust the way they work accordingly — a simple change with a significant impact.
 

5. Prevent psychosocial risks
PERS6NɅ documents specific and observable warning signs of overload for each profile — withdrawal, over-control, dramatization, passive resistance, increasing rigidity — well before they develop into established situations of distress. This approach is consistent with the QVCT framework (Quality of Working Life and Working Conditions) and with ISO 45001 (occupational health and safety), which encourages organizations to structure prevention proactively rather than reactively. An HR department or manager trained to recognize these specific signals can intervene earlier, before exhaustion or disengagement takes hold.
 

6. Make recruitment more secure, accelerate onboarding
The Recruitment version of the PERS6NɅ report documents the typical roles associated with each profile — the positions and assignments in which a person is most likely to thrive sustainably, as well as the contexts that, conversely, require a mode of action that is further removed from their natural dynamics. For onboarding, PERS6NɅ draws in particular on the cycle of interactivity (inspired by the work of Katherine Symor): a four-stage process — passivity, creativity, activity, interactivity — describing how an employee progressively builds autonomy within a new organization. Consciously supporting this progression, rather than leaving it to chance, reduces the time needed to become fully effective and lowers the risk of early disengagement or departure.
 

7. Team building and team mapping
Each person has a preferred relational dynamic — some are comfortable working alone, others in small groups, others in larger groups or in multiple, constantly changing environments. Mapping a team according to these four dynamics helps explain why some working configurations function naturally well while others repeatedly generate friction — providing a much more detailed picture than a simple organizational chart.

PERS6NɅ corporate training

PERS6NɅ offers three formats, adapted to the size of the organization and the objective.

Individual manager debrief

A one-to-one debrief of the PERS6NɅ report (Management or Recruitment version, depending on the need), for a manager who wants to better understand their own management approach, or better understand an employee they manage.
 

Team workshops
A facilitated session for a team, combining individual debriefs with collective team mapping — useful for team building, taking on a management role, or supporting a team going through a period of tension.
 

Premium deployment
A structured program delivered across a department or an entire organization, combining individual diagnostics, collective workshops and ongoing follow-up — designed for HR Directors engaged in a QVCT initiative or a broader management transformation.

Prerequisites: no technical prerequisites. An initial scoping discussion with an accredited practitioner is used to define the format best suited to your context.

The process in 3 steps:

Scoping — a discussion with an accredited practitioner to define the objectives, scope and appropriate format.
Online questionnaire — each participant completes the PERS6NɅ questionnaire at their own pace (45 to 55 minutes).
Debrief — individual and/or collective feedback session, facilitated by an accredited practitioner.

Pricing: quotation provided directly by the practitioner.
