"We've used the Kolb learning style inventory in our Leadership and Coach Training for the past 5 years and can only say...if you're not using it, you're missing out on an opportunity to mass customize learning to the individual leader, manager or employee. Learning style may be the simplest, most cost effective way to produce results. (period)" - Mike R. Jay, Founder - Leadership University. Everyone has their own way of learning. The KLSI recognizes individual learning preferences, while encouraging individuals to expand and apply their learning strengths. Understanding your own style - and that of other people - can help you tune into the needs of others so that you and your team work more effectively. Use the Kolb learning style inventory (KLSI) to help your employees and students: understand how their learning style impacts upon problem solving, teamwork, handling conflict, communication, develop their learning styles to fit their roles, find out why teams work well or badly together, strengthen their overall learning. Why choose the KLSI? Understanding how people learn can help you to target your training and development efforts, motivate teams and make optimum use of your collective time, resources and capabilities. The KLSI recognizes individual learning preferences, while encouraging individuals to expand their learning strengths. Based on experiential learning theory, the learning style inventory was developed by David Kolb Ph.D. with research that began in 1971. It identifies four phases in the learning process. Experiencing: learning from experiences, being sensitive to feelings and people. Reflecting: reserving judgment, taking different perspectives, looking for meaning. Thinking: logically analyzing ideas, planning systematically, using concepts. Acting: showing an ability to get things done, taking risks, influencing. Everyone has a tendency to learn from one of these preferred phases.

The Kolb LSI is a statistically reliable and valid 12-item assessment tool. Based on experiential learning theory, it identifies preferred learning styles, and explores the opportunities that different styles present for problem solving, teamwork, conflict resolution, communication (work and home), and career choice. The LSI, version 3 is the most recent version of the premier learning style instrument developed in 1976. It features 1) an experiential design that takes participants through the Cycle of Learning, 2) real-life applications that allow participants to apply this knowledge to their important issues, and 3) practical styles for developing styles that are weak. The Four Learning Styles: Diverging: combines preferences for experiencing and reflecting Assimilating: combines preferences for reflecting and thinking Converging: combines preferences for thinking and doing Accommodating: combines preferences for doing and experiencing General information about the assessment: The LSI is a self-scored assessment. It is available here on paper or it can be taken online. It is available in English, French and Spanish. A facilitators guide is available for those who have not facilitated the LSI before.
