Background
The L-BL Individual Achieving Styles Inventory (ASI), measures nine behavioral strategies that individuals use to achieve their goals.
The L-BL Organizational Achieving Styles Inventory (OASI), measures the behavioral strategies that organizations reward.
Fourteen versions of the Achieving Styles Inventory (ASI) have been developed and tested over the past 30 years. In 1983, we decided that ASI Version 13R had the soundest psychometric properties, and, since then, we have used ASI Version 13R exclusively.
Although the total database exceeds 40,000 cases, the current database in use includes approximately 25,000 cases, all of which have been collected since 1983 using ASI Version 13R.
The Inventories were developed by Jean Lipman-Blumen, Thornton F. Bradshaw Professor of Public Policy and Professor of Organizational Behavior, at the Peter F. Drucker and Masatoshi Ito Graduate School of Management, Claremont Graduate University, and Harold J. Leavitt, Walter Kenneth Kilpatrick Professor of Organizational Behavior and Psychology Emeritus, at the Graduate School of Business, Stanford University.
