ISPI™ EXE
Utilize the ISPI™ EXE for Enhancing Team Capabilities
What Is the ISPI™ EXE?
The ISPI™ EXE is like the “Periodic Table of People” for innovation. Just as the periodic table organizes chemical elements based on their properties, the ISPI™ EXE systematically categorizes individual innovation strengths and preferences. This comprehensive framework helps you understand the fundamental building blocks of your team’s capabilities, allowing you to assemble and manage teams with precision.
Ideation Style
Incremental vs. Breakthrough: Thinking: Understand whether team members excel at improving existing systems or at developing entirely new, disruptive solutions.
Risk Orientation
Risk-Takers vs. Risk-Averse: Identify comfort levels with uncertainty to balance risk effectively within your team.
Problem Solving Approach
Convergent vs. Divergent Thinking: Assess whether individuals prefer focusing on efficiency and practical solutions or exploring multiple possibilities and creative ideas.
Collaboration and Networking
Internal Focus vs. External Engagement: Determine who thrives on internal collaboration and who brings in valuable insights from external sources.
How does it work?
The ISPI™ EXE assesses styles of thinking, relating, and behaving in the context of innovation within businesses and organizations. The score patterns called “totems” can be interpreted for individuals or groups. Skilled practitioners can use the ISPI to make visible the internal orientations that affect the way people think, solve problems, make decisions, and interact with others. This knowledge can be used to optimize team efficiency for targeted tasks including breakthrough innovation.
Why Is the ISPI™ EXE Unparalleled?
Making the Invisible, Visible
The Innovation Strengths Preference Indicator® (ISPI™) questionnaire (U.S. Patent No. D885,418) is a valid, reliable measure of cognitive functioning that describes and predicts a person’s innovation related behavior across a variety of contexts. The instrument can be used to select, develop, coach, and train individuals and teams as well as in organization development.
High Reliability
'The ISPI™ is the most extensively used and validated tool for measuring innovation strengths and preferences. The Center for Creative Leadership, with its broad presence in over 160 countries and 2,500+ expert teams, has validated its effectiveness, evidenced by a high Cronbach's alpha coefficient (0.87). (There is NO other solution to date, that competes.)
Innovation-Centric
Specifically tailored for innovation and AI projects, providing insights that generic personality tests can't offer
