Career, Personality, and Ability Tests

Career, Personality, and Ability Tests

What Can They Do For You?

These assessments can open up previously closed windows giving you crucial information about your:

  • Authentic personality style and self-concept (the ‘real’ you).
  • Innate abilities – what you are naturally good at, and your prioritized interests.
  • Natural work style, best-fit work role, and optimal workplace environment.
  • Decision-making and communication styles.
  • Leadership and conflict management styles.
  • Best career options.

Given the power of this information you can:

  • Uncover new possibilities and see your dreams as potential realities.
  • Set realistic goals with an improved chance of achieving them.
  • CEOs of Fortune 500 companies; NASA engineers
  • Entrepreneurs; New Grads
  • High school and college students
  • New and experienced managers; Teams
  • Career changers and people re-entering the job market
  • Retired individuals looking for “what’s next”
  • People embarking on an ‘encore’ career
  • Couples seeking to improve their communication
  • And physicians, attorneys, teachers, accountants, nurses, actors, writers, designers, photographers, information technology specialists, artists, administrative assistants, electricians – you get the idea…
Assessments are:
  • Not tests. There are no wrong or bad answers, or results.
  • Not for everyone – they are valuable to gain new insights while clarifying conflicts and priorities.
To get accurate results, a trained consultant should explain how to answer assessment questions and interpret the results.

That depends. What’s keeping you up at night? What’s pulling at you or keeping you stuck? In which area of your life do you most want change?
