Perspectives is part of an exciting new breed of assessments that reflect modern neuroscientific thinking about personality. Developed in collaboration with Dr. Nigel Guenole from Goldsmiths University, Perspectives takes half the time of standard personality tests to complete and provides deep insight into an individual’s patterns of thinking, feeling and behaving. Well-designed reports are free of jargon, easy-to-read and provide a concise summary of strength and development areas. Feedback and development reports give specific direction to any on-going coaching and support required. It is used in selection, training and development, counselling and career advice.
Perspectives contains ten broad, scales that can be clustered to form the Big Five as well as higher order personality dimensions of stability and plasticity. Given its unique design, Perspectives is an invaluable aid to understanding which aspects of personality are more stable (i.e., harder to change) versus those aspects that are more responsive to personal development and growth. For HR professionals, this can help inform where to invest development and coaching efforts to ensure the greatest return.
