Cleaver v. the Competition

We believe The Cleaver System is the most comprehensive in-depth resource available for companies concerned with the ongoing development of people. Its particular unique qualities must be understood in terms of the comprehensive nature of the process, it is not a single "tool", i.e., (DISC).

We see the process of linking all jobs to corporate objectives as an integral part of real success within organizations.

The Cleaver System is unique because all its instruments are job related and, therefore, have avoided attack by EEOC and others for some fifty years. Our instruments and systems have been developed in the real world (not in the laboratory) at the request of our business clients to meet their needs.

The Cleaver Instruments have met the test of time. They are validated daily in every part of the United States by clients who regularly contact us to discuss cases.

Finally, the Cleaver instruments provide in-depth understanding of individuals and jobs. Most other instruments are superficial, classifying all people into such categories as Driver, Amiable, Analytical or Expressive. Every trained Cleaver Associate understands that without the use of the Basic Combinations, classifying people by some outstanding characteristic is not only superficial, it is usually inaccurate. A Hi D with a Hi C is a totally different person from the one with a Hi D and a Lo C. Until all (eight Hi's and Lo's) outstanding characteristics are "integrated" through the Combinations and matched to the job, there is neither identification of the unique qualities of the person nor the ability to match the person to the job!

The business world wants quick and simple solutions to complex relationships. In accepting quick and simple solutions the result is expensive and time consuming mistakes which must be lived with at great cost to the organization.
