  • Access to your online CSI® assessment portal.
The Change Preferences of the CSI®
+
-

The instrument addresses both initiated and opposed change and places the respondent on a continuum of three styles:

  • Conserver : Prefers the known to the unknown. Disciplined, detailed, deliberate and organized. Accept structure. Prefer gradual change.
  • Pragmatist: Prefers to explore the current situation in an objective manner. Reasonable, practical, agreeable and flexible. Explore structure. Prefer change that best serves the function.
  • Originator: Prefers a faster and more radical approach to change. Unconventional, spontaneous and risk takers. Challenge the structure. Prefer quicker, more expansive and radical change.

Overall, the three styles represent distinct approaches and preferences when responding to change.
