What makes VRFT® unique?

Uncover actual and potential
There are many personality type and styles theories, each offering different perspectives to explain why people are different and yet share common experience or behaviors. The common thread for most personality and behavior theories is the focus on actual experience. VRFT® stands out from the rest because it focuses on potential – inherent capacity – in addition to actual, realized behaviors and skills.
Perceptual Style© – the heart of VRFT®
Vega Role Facilities Theory® categorizes the various ways people perceive into six distinct Perceptual Styles© which define the way people take in information through their five senses and make that information meaningful. Perceptual Style© acts as a filter between sensation and understanding. It is at the core of who a person is, and it impacts their values, beliefs, feelings, and psychology.
The decisions people make, the actions they take, and the directions they choose are all influenced by their Perceptual Style© because it defines reality for them.
All six Perceptual Styles© provide distinctly different experiences of the world. These differences result in a profound psychological and perceptual diversity that is the most important diversity there is.
Every person has a Perceptual Style© that is unchanging, genetic, and innate. What does change over time is a person’s degree of awareness of their Perceptual Style© and how that style influences their behavior.
Each Perceptual Style© has a vast repertoire of natural skills and behaviors that are unique to that particular Perceptual Style©. Everyone develops some of their natural skills and behaviors and use them all the time. And everyone has some natural skills and behaviors lying dormant waiting to be recognized and used!
Preferences for Interaction – why everyone really is unique
While Perceptual Style© is at the core of who a person is, another very important aspect of is how a person prefers to interact with others. VRFT® defines three major categories of interaction between people – Transactions, Operations, and Resources – and everyone has equal capacity for the behaviors associated with all three. In fact we all use behaviors from all three categories every day.
Interestingly, everyone develops a distinct ordered Preference for Interaction during childhood that stays with them throughout their adult life.
It’s the combination of a person’s Preference for Interaction© and Perceptual Style© that distinguishes them from others who share their Perceptual Style©.
VRFT® Role Matrix
– measuring actual and potential –
and putting it all together for practical application
The VRFT® Role Matrix defines a basic set of roles people play as they live and work together. The roles described by VRFT® are complex human functions consisting of characteristic and expected patterns of behavior that people perform in social contexts.
There are 18 different and distinct roles described by VRFT® . Every VRFT® role is supported by a specific set of skills and behaviors.
The application of VRFT® describes, for each individual, how the roles they prefer fit with their innate Perceptual Style©, their developed Preferences for Interaction© , and their awareness and preferences for the skills associate with each roles.
The results of the Talent Assessment Inventory provide a roadmap for personal awareness and growth by identifying for an individual which roles are:
The best route to happiness and success comes from focusing on the use of Talents and the development of Opportunities. They will always provide the greatest sense of satisfaction and reward. And Talents and Opportunities require less psychological, emotional, and physical energy to perform than any Endeavor or Distraction!
VRFT® is an original Perceptual Styles© and behavioral roles theory
Developed over the course of 30+ years by Gary M. Jordan, Ph.D. and Lynda-Ross Vega VRFT® is easy to understand, easy to use, and provides fabulous results.
VRFT® is based on observations made from clinical practice, organizational experience, skill development coaching, and consultation in organizational development. Lynda-Ross and Gary’s work has been influenced by their experience and training with perceptual psychology, monotheistic religion, the character analytic theory of Wilhelm Reich, Jungian type theory, and radical constructivism as developed by Paul Watzlawick, PhD.
The reliability of the VRFT® assessment tools is very high in comparison to other psychological inventories – they provide results you can count on.
Experience VRFT® for yourself.
Nothing beats personal experience. Why wait?
