Brain Profiling

NBI® Brain Profiling Instruments

Thinking styles and preferences frequently tell us a lot about how a customer makes decisions and more importantly how you learn, sell, grow and develop as a professional. Aren’t all brains essentially built the same way? Can all people be treated and managed in the same way? Are there unique ways in which some people use their minds and brains?

The Neethling Brain Instruments (NBI®) is a highly practical and groundbreaking set of instruments and questionnaires that will lift the lid on your preferred way of thinking, selling and leading. In doing so you will also get to understand your customer’s way of navigating the sometimes rocky path to purchase.

NBI® Leadership Brain Profiling

Your Leadership Brain Profile will give you an insight into your leadership style, issues that are important to you (but maybe not to your employees or colleagues) and even where there could be room for improvement. Developing better relationships, making more dynamic contributions in the workplace and making sound and relevant decisions are but a few of the advantages of understanding your own thinking profile.Because the focus is on thinking preferences the end result is neither good nor bad.

The Leadership Profile is a descriptive, objective analysis of the individual’s thinking choices, with no profile being better or worse than another. Instead, the report gives a description of an individual’s thought preferences, and makes recommendations based on those.

The Leadership Profile measures thinking preferences, and not the skills or abilities necessary to execute those preferences. It is therefore possible that an individual could have a very strong preference for order, planning and organisation, but has never had the opportunity to develop the skills to plan and organise. The recommendation in this instance would be that since the desire is there, the skills to support that desire should be developed in order to be effective in a given career.

NBI® Skills Brain Profile

This Instrument identifies an individual’s skills. You may have acquired skills in a particular area that is not really indicative of your brain preference or you may have a very strong preference in one area, but have never had the opportunity to develop the necessary skills. It could happen that your skills profile differs from your preference profile. The most common reason for this happening is that preferring (“liking”) something does not automatically mean you have the skills to execute or implement the preference.

You may like singing but do not have any singing skills. The opposite is also sometimes true. A person may have excellent skills for accounting but has little or no preference for doing the work of an accountant. It would be very difficult to sustain passion and energy, if the correlation between the preference profile and skills profile is low.
