Many thanks to everyone who came to see us at the Learning and Skills Exhibition this year - billed as the the UK's largest gathering of learning and development professionals, and it certainly seemed to live up to its name! We met lots of really interesting people from a wide range of sectors and we were more than happy to spend two days talking non-stop about our training and development services, and how Lumina Spark is being used to transform teams and organisations worldwide... Aparently there was a record breaking attendance, with over 7,000 L&D professionals attending the event - so if you missed it this year, be sure to watch out for learning and skills 2013, on 29-30 January which promises to be even bigger and better! |
Why Lumina Spark?Lumina Spark as our psychometric tool of choice. It is a remarkable professional development tool that supports individuals and teams to work more effectively. It is unique amongst other psychometric tools because it avoids any stereotyping, while enabling clear communication about personal preferences using memorable colours. Our clients enjoy using it because it produces clear insight into how individuals can work more effectively with others. Individuals love it because it gives a clear, jargon free insight into their personality. The starting point of your Lumina Spark professional development experience is a simple online questionnaire which enables you to receive a highly personalised 38 page Lumina Portrait. This accurately describes your persona, and provides a practical method for reading and adapting to other people. The Portrait is used as the basis for your on-going development programme. While Spark utilises the latest Big 5 research to provide a solid empirical base for its Portraits, it also maps directly into the Jungian preferences measured by many popular tools (such as MBTI). This enables users of these reports to instantly identify and appreciate the extra depth that the accurate measurement gives. There are three distinct differences between the Lumina Spark Portrait and other psychometric tests and profiles. They are:

IT'S PERSONALISED. No stereotyping; No
labelling; No boxing; No grids; No cells. We
measure 24 qualities on a continuum – we call
this ‘trait not type’. The highly individualised
portrait ensures everybody touched by our
programmes receives a meaningful, personal
experience.
IT'S REALISTIC. By embracing paradox,
individuals are delighted at last to recognise
themselves in their own portraits, appreciating
their unique strengths and acknowledging the
areas where they could improve.
IT'S CUSTOMISED. The Lumina Portraits are
completely tailored to the individual.
We combine the collated results from the
questionnaire with tailored information,
inspirational quotes and development
exercises - depending on the individual profile
and the focus of any accompanying training
or coaching.
IT STICKS. We use memorable, colourful and
practical language to create a set of ideas that
people remember and can apply for years to
come. The model has 'simplicity and depth' and
can be used at a big picture 4 colour level, an 8
aspect level or a detailed full 24 quality level –
depending on your application.
IT WORKS. Lumina Spark is flexible &
measurable; it creates results orientated
interventions. Using the GROWS model of
coaching, and an online goal setting/monitoring
tool we ensure that everybody is held
accountable to follow through on their
commitments, making sure that they achieve
the best possible benefits from taking part.
