ISBN to: Acknowledgments Saville Consulting would like to thank the many individuals, charities and organizations that helped to make the development of Saville Consulting Wave possible. We would like to recognize the contribution each person made from the 50 countries involved in the development in giving their time to complete and review the questionnaires. We would also like to thank every person who completed the early versions of Saville Consulting Wave Styles online and every individual who provided an independent rating which allowed us to select the most valid items for use in Saville Consulting Wave Styles assessments. Since the initial development of Professional and Focus Styles many more individuals have completed and many more independent ratings of performance at work have been collected allowing us to cross validate the results in other groups. We thank you all. Citation Citation: Saville, P., MacIver, R. & Kurz, R. (2012). Saville Consulting Wave Professional Styles Handbook, 2nd Edition. Saville Consulting Group, Jersey.
