The Firo-B® is ideal for anyone wanting to improve relationships with other people, whether just one other person or with a group of people.
The FIRO-B® measures your interpersonal needs in 3 areas:
• Inclusion - This relates to forming new relationships with others. It determines how much contact a person wants to have with others.
• Control - This relates to decision making, influence and persuasion between people. It determines the degree of power or dominance a person seeks.
• Affection – This relates to emotional ties and warm connections between people. It determines the degree of closeness a person seeks.
For each area you will get a result which describes your expressed score – the extent to which you will initiate the behaviour and the wanted score, the extent to which you want or will accept that behaviour from others. You will find out the extent that your behaviour is congruent, or not, with what you actually want. It is the start of an in-depth understanding of behaviour and whether you want to (or not) make changes. If you choose not to make changes you will have raised your awareness of the consequences.
The Firo-B® is a fantastic instrument to help you understand your own behaviour and the behaviour of others. Using these insights you can learn how to get along better at work, in personal relationships and in social settings.
