THE STORY OF STI

Dr. Hall began conducting research on spirituality and spiritual measures in the early 1990s, and is now recognized as a leading scholar in this area. This early research led to a significant focus working with Christian universities, seminaries, and churches, which included several large grant-funded studies on spiritual development. In 2003, Dr. Hall developed the STI to meet the need for a spiritual assessment tool that combines theoretical depth, scientific rigor, practical utility, and national benchmark norms. He developed a group report for colleges, churches and Christian ministries, and an individual report to help people grow in their spiritual journey. Over the past decade, over 40,000 people have taken the STI, and the benchmark norms grow on a daily basis, providing increasingly robust scores. In 2004, Dr. Hall partnered with the Coalition for Christian Colleges and Universities (CCCU), which began offering the STI as part of the Comprehensive Assessment Project. Several years later, Dr. Hall began partnering with the Association of Biblical Higher Education, which now endorses the STI for use by their member schools. Over 90 Christian universities and ministry organizations have used the STI to date.

workplace cultures ARE OUT-OF-DATE.

Rooted in the Industrial Revolution, our workplace cultures are out-of-date.  If you’re struggling with engagement at work, you’re far from alone. In fact, 87% of workers around the world aren’t motivated to give their best at work. Why? They don’t feel seen, heard, or valued in their workplace. They don’t feel connected.

We’re experiencing a connection crisis.

Research demonstrates that meaningful human connection at work is the biggest driver of employee engagement. Engaged employees = healthy, high-performing organizations.

It’s time for a new approach.

Employee engagement surveys and programs are not enough. Only a more holistic approach that addresses organizational culture (and subcultures within organizations) will improve employee engagement and organizational performance.
