SPGR Belt Levels


The access to the SPGR Gyre Web system is split into various levels indicated by "coloured belts", indicating level of proficiency, experience and certification in use of the SPGR tools.


Green Belt - the professional SPGR practitioner

The Green Belt is the first level that requires SPGR certification.

Once you have completed the course and are authorized to use SPGR then you are ready to use the SPGR tools to the benefit of individuals, teams and organizations, both in your organization and in others.

The main work tools at the Green Belt level is "SPGR 360+" (for individuals, coaching, leader development etc) and "SPGR TEAM" (for groups, work teams, departments etc). Individual reports for each participant of a survey is available to the consultant, allowing deeper and more direct feedback to group members.

You can also customize the 360+ surveys with abstract query objects for more fine-tuned analysis, e.g. "ideal leader", "ideal co-worker", "team as a whole" etc.

The SPGR reports available include: Field diagram and Agility diagram.

Blue belt - the seasoned SPGR survey-slinger

Includes all from Green Belt, but also includes:

  • SPGR Object Survey - for surveying multiple respondents about query objects, often used to analyse organizational culture.
  • Polarization diagram - easily identify in-group polarization and potential conflict areas.
  • Spiral diagram - an intuitive "butterfly" diagram that displays the full SPGR scale within a "norm" area.

Red belt - the worldly SPGR wizard

All from Green and Blue belt, as well as:

  • Quick SPGR Survey - shorter 12-question survey for quicker turn-around time on surveys as well as large teams
  • Raw data entry - allows alternative methods of obtaining SPGR data and entering it into the system. Useful if surveys are done off-line, on paper, or using other methods.
  • Generic survey setup with more flexibility choosing which members shall be queried, evaluated and asked about query objects.
  • FreeRider - a simple additional survey useful for certain situations.
  • Custom reports - modify the report setup, add/remove diagrams, insert custom text etc.
