The FIRO-B® Assessment
The Fundamental Interpersonal Relations Orientation–Behavior® (FIRO-B®) Assessment The Fundamental Interpersonal Relations Orientation–Behavior® (FIRO-B®) assessment helps people understand their own behavior and that of others in interpersonal situations. For more than 40 years, this classic 54-item assessment has been used to clarify human interactions in personal and business situations. It explores three basic interpersonal needs: Inclusion, Control, and Affection, along two dimensions: Expressed and Wanted. The FIRO-B assessment can be used as an integral part of team-building initiatives, personal development plans and communication workshops.

In 15 minutes, the FIRO-B® instrument assesses your interpersonal needs and the impact of that individual’s behavior in the workplace. Three needs are measured in two dimensions: “expressed” behavior (how much we initiate behavior) and "wanted" behavior (how much we prefer others to initiate behavior).

If you are looking to increase your team's self-awareness and awareness of others, this is a phenomneal tool. If you have already taken the FIRO-B, or if you are a trainer who utilizes the FIRO-B and you want to take it to the next level, GDI can help.  Contact us today to find out how.
