Are you looking for a tool to help support your staff and your business? In this episode of The Maximum Lawyer Podcast, host Tyson Mutrux shares his personal journey with the Kolbe assessment. Tyson discusses the differences between his initial and later Kolbe results and how understanding instinctive energy can improve leadership and team dynamics.

Tyson shares some insights on using the Kolbe assessment and his lessons learned. Kolbe measures how you instinctively take action when you are faced with an issue. Instincts are deep rooted and can change over time, which can lead to different scores for those that take the assessment. For law firm owners, many issues are people driven.

This can range from someone not doing a good enough job or just causing problems for your firm. This is ultimately an alignment issue and the assessment can be used to decide how to restructure your firm to ensure people are working in ways that benefit themselves and the business.

Depending on the assessment results, you might need to re-align roles with strengths. This can be challenging because you don’t want to change the way your firm runs. But, you can figure out how to align roles and strengths as much as possible to improve productivity. Look at how your firm operates, where people might need more support and find ways to shift your structure. This will improve happiness and uphold retention for your firm.
