What's being assessed?

The Levelling Up assessment explores the way people pass knowledge and skills bwtween each other. It focuses on three arenas of knowledge sharing: strategy, method, and style.

In the first arena, we evaluate the balance of strategies we use, such as understanding, applying, exploring, and observing, in order to develop ourselves or others.

The second arena deals with the methods we use to demonstrate, explain, practice, or refine skills in order to help others develop.

And the third arena covers the role of advisor, tutor, coach, or mentor in supporting ongoing development.

Any or all of our other Promana assessments can be used in conjunction with the Levelling Up assessment for a more detailed and comprehensive understanding of how people share, transfer and absorb knowledge an skills.
