What defines the quality and reliability of our assessments?

Sound psychometric assessments require several key features to ensure they deliver insights accurately and reliably.

More than a survey, and a whole lot more than a quiz

Each of our assessments begins with a carefully constructed survey, but it's far more than just a simple questionnaire.

The construction of our surveys is grounded in over 50 years work by experts in fields such as human behaviour, interpersonal transactions, coaching, organisational development, and industrial relations.

Each assessment we offer is designed to ensure your responses are provided as choices between options rather than as a bland subjective rating.

This ipsative approach helps us to ensure we report on your relative preferences.

Furthermore, we employ the science of pairwise comparison to enhance the accuracy and reliability of your assessments.

Behaviour is the best predictor

Behaviour-based assessments offer everyone practical, actionable insights derived from the observation of everyday actions.

This sets them apart from assessments that attempt to make judgments about personality or psychology.

The trouble with personality quizzes

When people complete assessments that report on personality traits or create psychological profiles, they have to relinquish control over the analysis and interpretation of their results. This can lead to feeling —and being— judged or categorised, which often carries negative connotations and undermines their sense of agency.

In contrast, behaviour-based assessments like ours focus on observable actions and personal growth, empowering people to understand and leverage their behaviours without feeling judged, in turn fostering a more positive and proactive approach to personal development.
