Tools & Assessments

Alongside our coaching, we draw on a suite of well-researched, evidence-based assessments to give individuals and teams a clear picture of where they are now — and where they could grow. The ones we reach for most often:

CliftonStrengths — Gallup's strengths assessment helps you discover your unique combination of talents from across 34 themes, so you can understand what you naturally do best and learn to lead from your strengths.

Leadership Circle 360 — Individual & Collective — A research-based 360° assessment that connects a leader's competencies with the beliefs and assumptions driving them, showing how Creative strengths and Reactive habits shape their leadership. Used with individual leaders (the Leadership Circle Profile) and with whole leadership teams (the Collective Leadership Assessment).

MyWorldView — A validated vertical-development measure that maps how broadly and flexibly a leader makes sense of themselves, others and the wider system — and points to the next horizon of their growth and maturity.

TC360 Team Assessment — A systemic team 360 built on Peter Hawkins' five disciplines of high-performing teams. Rather than surveying individuals, it gathers structured feedback from the team's key stakeholders on how the team is performing as a whole.

Five Dysfunctions of a Team Assessment — Based on Patrick Lencioni's widely used model, this online assessment gives a team an honest read on how they're travelling across trust, healthy conflict, commitment, accountability and results.
