Endurance
What's pushing you beyond your comfort zone?
We all experience pressure and tension at times. But what happens when we're overwhelmed depends on the individual.
The Endurance assessment throws a spotlight on three areas: First, we examine four common sources of stress. Next, four stress-inducing sources are investigated. Lastly, we report on how we deal with stress when it's upon us.
This assessment comes highly recommended!

The Endurance assessment gives us insights into the perceived sources of our pressures and tensions. It tells us the extent to which we believe we can (and do) tolerate our stress, and it depicts our response when we do experience stress.
The first four factors explore activities, environment, self and others as possible causes of pressure and tension.
Another four factors deal with ambiguity, deprival, conflict and frustration as potential sources of stress.
Finally, a third set of four factors reports on our tendency to flee from the situation, to go along with it passively, to stand ground, or to seek ways to come bring issues under control. Fun fact: it's never just one thing. We're all our own unique blend of factors!
-
Activities
Sometimes, it's the things we have to get done that push us into stretch and beyond. This factor tells that story
-
Self
This factor will highlight the degree to which a person feels they're contributing to their own stress
-
Environment
If the work, home or other environment is bringing pressure and tension then you'll see a strong correlation here
-
Others
Sometimes we can feel that we're being pushed off balance by others. That's depicted here
-
Ambiguity
Displays the degree to which a lack of clarity is playing a part in a person's perception of stress
-
Deprival
Indicates when stress can be traced back to "missing out" in some way
-
Conflict
Conflict can be stressful, no matter how it's experienced. This factors shows the degree to which it affect us
-
Frustration
When faced with overwhelm, the resulting boilover can be hard to cope with. We measure that perception here
-
Concede
Sometimes we just want to remove ourselves from uncomfortable situations. This factor measures that predisposition
-
Conform
Demonstrates the degree to which the reaction to stress may be to follow the line of least resistance
-
Confront
When the going gets tough, if there's a preference for the "tough to get going", it'll show up here
-
Contain
Sometimes, we can "freeze" or dither, not knowing which "escape strategy" works best. We call this the Fumble factor
