by Ken Goldstein, C.P.B.A.

With profiling, you will avoid leading and interacting with your team based on preconceived notions and ideas, which will most likely lead to conflicts and failure.
Instead, you can fully motivate and engage with your team and their talents by understanding how to work with different personalities.
