Birkman Consultations
The Birkman Method is a personality assessment and career directive tool. Its goal is to provide insight, direction, and strategies in order to embolden people to wisely choose their future paths. It reveals how others perceive their actions, how to discern social and emotional needs and how to empathetically relate. The Birkman is also a valuable tool to use for hiring processes and team development.

Dealing with Difficult Parents, Administrator Goals/Time Management, Culture/Climate of a School, Formative Assessments, Classroom Management, Courageously Parenting, and Instructional Teaching Strategies, and more.
