In this clip from The Office, Michael is jealous that Phyllis has taken the role of Santa Claus at the Christmas party. In order to fill his need for attention and importance, Michael haphazardly decides to play the role of Jesus instead.

Hopefully this is not how your office operates. Diversity creates strength and innovation within groups of people, but with diversity comes a need for respect. The holiday season represents a time of giving and sharing and it is important that diverse groups be able to accept each other’s differences in order to maximize their productivity.
Employee assessments can calculate how unique groups can effectively work together while making the most of their differences. They can also provide information necessary to coach employees on how to share and cooperate with their team mates in a way that preserves everyone’s identity and benefits the greater good.
