Every year Nucor "shuts-down" production to perform routine
maintenance on machines. This year, ANC Solutions Group was part of that
"maintenance." On March 16th, Nucor Yamato Steel and Nucor Castrip
participated in an eight hour Spectrum Development/Personality awareness and
conflict management training, provided by Desmond Hammett.
Spectrum Development is a personality awareness program that allows
individuals to identify themselves and learn how to put that knowledge into
perspective in everyday life. There are two aspects to Full Color Spectrum.
First is the interaction styles, introversion and extroversion, which describes
the thinking process and energy source. The second reveals temperament colors,
Blue, Green, Gold and Orange, which describe four distinct patterns of
behavior.
The group initially identified if they were introverts or extroverts.
Then they moved into the personality assessment where they identified what they
perceive themselves as in the spectrum. The different colors represent the following
personality traits:
Nurturing
Communicative
Imaginative
Devoted
Empathetic
Genuine
Enthusiastic
Compassionate
Dramatic
Orange
Resourceful
Courageous
Flexible
Risk Taking
Adventurous
Spontaneous
Skillful
Generous
Green
Insightful
Conceptual
Analytical
Independent
Visionary
Abstract
Gold
Loyal
Committed
Accountable
Dependable
Decisive
Organized
Prepared
After learning about their personalities, the group worked on conflict
resolution. They participated in a role-playing activity that allowed the group
to practice conflict resolution by simulating a taxicab ride where the person
driving the cab acted as a sounding board while the passenger talked about his
or her conflicts. The driver offered feedback and utilized what was learned to
restate the issue and offer suggestions on how to resolve the conflict.
Thank you NYS & Nucor Castrip & Randy Henderson for allowing us
to train during your shutdown. ANC would like to extend thanks to Great River
Economic Development Foundation for approving funding a portion of the
training.
