The Big Five or the Five-Factor Model of Personality is the most current, most valid, most reliable means of assessing personality available today. Psychologists use it as the primary means of understanding and interpreting personality. From the mid-1980’s to the mid-1990’s, the Five-Factor Model of Personality was primarily tested and re-tested in the academic and research communities world-wide and was found to be a superior model to earlier means of explaining and describing personality.

The business community began to take the Big Five seriously when Pierce J. Howard and Jane Mitchell Howard’s article was published in the September 1995 issue of Training and Development, the trade magazine of the American Society for Training and Development. The article, entitled, “Buddy, Can You Paradigm?”, gives a brief history of the model’s development and explains how the Five-Factor Model may be used to understand individuals, relationships, and teams in work situations.

Chatura Damle and Jayant Damle both Master Trainers who have worked with Dr. Pierce Howard and Jane Mitchell Howard, the authors of The WorkPlace Big Five ProFile 3.0™, will conduct the Certification Program for the use of this instrument. Between them Chatura Damle and Jayant Damle carry over 40 years of experience in Psychology, Training, Business Application and Industry.

The WB5P is a normative test and can be used for Job Selection, while many commercially well-known assessments should not be used for Job Selection. The WorkPlace questionnaire and reports have been approved by an EEOC lawyer. Busy executives find it fast and easy to complete online in 10 – 15 minutes with only 107 questions. The coefficient alpha of 0.81 is among the highest of all other assessments. This is a level-B APA accredited Psychometric Instrument and needs certification for use.

The WorkPlace Big Five ProFile 3.0™ (WB5P) has become the standard for psychologists. The WB5P was specifically written in workplace terminology to be used for business applications such as:
 Team Building
 Leadership Development
 Performance Coaching
 Job Selection and Hiring
 Succession Planning
 Management/ Supervisory Training
 Career Development
 Sales Training
