"Success is Doing things YOUR Way"

Discover Your Child’s Strengths

E3 Scholarship Fund provides Kolbe Youth Assessments to aid in educational planning, placement, and to help determine the individualized learning strengths of each student. This coordination of information is instrumental for students who are struggling to make progress in school.

By becoming aware of their innate talents, students, parents, and educators will be able to figure out solutions that work for them in their day to day learning environment.

According to Kolbe wisdom, there are four basic instincts that we all revert to when problem-solving. These instincts are not acquired or learned. They are not based on emotions or how we feel. They were given to all of us at birth and are a part of who we are. You cannot change your instincts nor can you measure them. However, we can measure conation, which are the actions we take as a result of these instincts.

PATTERNS OF BEHAVIOR

KOLBE ACTION MODES

Fact Finder

The instinct or gather and share information

Follow Thru

The instinct to sort and store

Quick Start

The instinct to deal with risk and uncertainty

Implementor

The instinct to handle space and tangible objects

Each Action Mode has three different behaviors that predict how problems are prevented or how solutions are initiated. Knowing which end of the continuum the child is on helps in understanding and developing those talents.

Each Child is Unique

The uniqueness of each child is not something to take for granted. By identifying the strengths of your child, we are able to identify the keys for success to help improve communication, problem-solving, and most importantly to reduce stress. Each child learns to do things in their own special way, helping them become more creative and better problem-solvers not just at school, but also at home and in life.

I am firmly convinced that without understanding our instincts, we, and our children, will not find our natural stride to success without much pain and wasteful dead-ends.

Without truly understanding our individual unique path of high performance, parents, teachers, and leaders will continue unwittingly to impose “their way” on those they aim to help and educate. Leaders in all sectors will continue to marginalize those who have different talents—different from the ones that work for us.

We call this INSTINCTIVE BIAS: our way is the way. And this comes about because we have valued the role KNOWLEDGE and MOTIVATION play in high performance but have ignorantly devalued the role INSTINCT plays in the way we achieve.

Our Beginning of Success

Claire Tietgen was born with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome. As a child, she struggled in school. She was different and did not fit within the traditional framework of public school. Although there were special needs programs in place, they didn’t take into consideration how Claire learned. They just imposed how they wanted her to learn.

After struggling in school for years, and failing nearly every class, Claire took the Kolbe Y™ Index. She found her strengths and her parents worked with the school to make accommodations that work for Claire’s personal needs. She went from failing to making A’s and B’s!

"You're not working at your full potential"

This is the first clue that instinctive bias is happening at school. Teachers and administrators desire to positively impact kids’ lives. Students deserve to have a teacher who sincerely believes they possess the ability to be successful. They deserve the chance to develop skills that allow them to be successful in whatever they choose to do after graduation. Research shows that 78% of students have difficulty adjusting to the typical classroom setting where 70%- 80% of teachers teach in a way that only 22% of children naturally learn.

Kolbe’s concept is based on the fact that every person is uniquely and perfectly capable of creative problem-solving. Our creative instincts are the source of mental energy that drives us to take specific actions.

E3 Scholarship Fund offers Kolbe assessments for children, teens, and adults. These assessments can be used to help children who are struggling in school, help them find a career path that fits their skill set, and helps their parents and teachers understand their learning strengths. We also offer assessments for adults who are looking to understand their learning strengths to make career choices where they will thrive. Our pricing includes the Kolbe assessment and a personalized interpretation with Dr. Ramon Corrales. By harnessing your instincts, you can find your natural path to success. Kolbe workshops go into more detail about using results at school and home.
