Yet the collaboration is difficult. One person wants to generate new ideas right away, far beyond the beaten track. Another wants to thoroughly understand the problem first and proceed step by step. Someone thinks out loud and needs others to help shape their thoughts. A colleague needs silence to reflect before sharing anything. One person makes decisions based on data and logic. Another weighs the human impact above all else.<\/p>\n<p>No one is wrong. Everyone is creative\u2014but in fundamentally different ways.<\/p>\n<p>These are not personality flaws or team conflicts.

After completing the training, you will be able to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Thoroughly understand and explain the VIEW model<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You will understand the scientific roots of VIEW: the level-style difference, the Cognitive Styles Project, the connections with cognitive psychology, learning psychology, and psychological type theory. You will be able to explain the model clearly to participants without jargon and answer frequently asked questions such as \u201cIs this the same as MBTI?\u201d or \u201cCan I change my style?\u201d<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Administer and process the VIEW Assessment professionally<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You know how to administer the assessment correctly, how to process the results, and how to generate individual and group reports.

What are the strengths of an Internal Processor? How does someone with a moderate preference for Decision Making work? You conduct feedback conversations that are empowering\u2014not reductive. You help people recognize their profile in their own behavior, without pigeonholing them.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Analyzing team profiles and making the style mix productive<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You learn how to bring together the individual profiles of a team into an integrated team overview.

You guide teams in discussing their style differences in a constructive, psychologically safe way.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Integrating VIEW into CPS facilitation<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You will learn how to consciously use VIEW when designing CPS sessions: which tools appeal to which styles? How do you ensure that Explorers and Developers, Internal and External Processors, Person- and Task-Oriented Decision Makers all contribute optimally? You will adapt your facilitation style based on the style mix in the group.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Utilizing the three sub-elements of Orientation to Change<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You will work not only with the three main dimensions, but also with the refined sub-elements of the OC dimension: Preference for Novelty, Structure &amp; Authority, and Search Strategy. This nuance makes it possible to make meaningful distinctions within the Explorer or Developer preference and to provide more targeted feedback.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Using VIEW outside the facilitation context<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You will discover how VIEW can be used in individual coaching programs, leadership development, selection and development interviews, onboarding processes, and team charters. You will translate the style insights into concrete behavioral recommendations that people can apply immediately.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Working ethically and responsibly with style diagnostics<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You work from a value-neutral position: all styles are equal and potentially valuable.

It is an in-depth professional development program for people who work with groups, teams, or individuals on a daily basis in a context of learning, collaboration, or change\u2014and who want to enhance that work with a scientifically based and practical tool.<\/p>\n<p>You don&#8217;t need to be a psychologist. However, you do need to have a professional context in which you can use VIEW in a meaningful and responsible way. Do you recognize yourself in one of the profiles below?<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Coaches and leadership coaches<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You guide individuals or managers in their professional development. You notice that many of the patterns you encounter in coaching \u2014 procrastination, conflicts in decision-making, difficulty collaborating \u2014 are related to differences in style that people cannot explain to themselves.<\/p>\n<p>VIEW gives you, as a coach, a validated framework to make those patterns visible and discussable. Not as a label or diagnosis, but as a starting point for a richer coaching conversation. You help your coachees understand how they naturally approach problems, where their strengths lie, and how they can switch more consciously when the situation requires it.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>CPS 6.1\u2122 Facilitators<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You are familiar with Creative Problem Solving and guide groups through complex issues and innovation processes. You know that not every participant approaches a CPS session in the same way \u2014 and that some tools or phases feel much more natural to certain people than to others.<\/p>\n<p>VIEW gives you the language and insight to understand those differences and respond to them consciously. You learn to design sessions that do justice to the full mix of styles in the group \u2014 so that Explorers and Developers, internal and external processors, person- and task-oriented decision-makers can all contribute at their best. The combination of CPS 6.1\u2122 and VIEW is therefore one of the most powerful tools you can have as a facilitator.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>HR and L&amp;D professionals<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You are responsible for talent policy, leadership development, or learning and development programs. You work with assessments, competency models, and development trajectories \u2014 but find that standard tools do not sufficiently capture the richness and complexity of cognitive diversity.<\/p>\n<p>VIEW offers you a value-neutral, scientifically based tool that you can use for onboarding, team composition, career coaching, or designing inclusive learning environments. Because VIEW does not rank styles, it empowers all employees \u2014 regardless of their background or job level.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Team coaches and facilitators<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You work with teams that want to collaborate better, understand their dynamics, or navigate a period of change. You see how style differences lead to misunderstandings, frustrations, and missed opportunities\u2014but also how that same diversity can be a huge asset when used consciously.<\/p>\n<p>VIEW gives you a structured approach to identifying, discussing, and making productive use of the mix of styles in a team. You learn how to facilitate a team discussion based on VIEW profiles, how to identify blind spots without hurting people&#8217;s feelings, and how to turn the complementarity of different styles into genuine teamwork.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Consultants and advisors in change and innovation<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You guide organizations through transformation, innovation processes, or cultural change. You know that the human side of change\u2014how people respond to new structures, uncertainty, or radical ideas\u2014is at least as important as the substantive strategy.<\/p>\n<p>VIEW helps you as a consultant to quickly and accurately understand why certain people or groups show resistance, why some teams perform better than others, and how you can design interventions that take into account the diversity of styles within the organization. It makes your consulting practice richer, more nuanced, and more effective.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Trainers and educators<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You design and deliver training courses, workshops, or educational programs\u2014on leadership, collaboration, creativity, communication, or another domain. You notice that participants respond differently to your approach: some want to experiment right away, while others need more structure. Some thrive in group discussions, while others prefer to work individually.<\/p>\n<p>VIEW provides you with a scientific framework to understand these differences and to tailor your didactic design more consciously to the mix of styles among your participants. This increases the transfer of your training courses: what people learn sticks better when it matches how they naturally learn and work.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Researchers and academics in creativity, organizational psychology, or HRM<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You have a professional interest in the scientific basis of creativity, cognitive style, or organizational behavior. The level-style distinction, the Cognitive Styles Project, and the theoretical foundations of VIEW are relevant to your field of research.<\/p>\n<p>The certification training not only offers you practical tools, but also a thorough introduction to the theoretical architecture behind VIEW \u2014 including the links to cognitive psychology, learning psychology, psychological type theory, and creativity literature.
