The questionnaire takes about 20 minutes to complete. The results compare your self assessment with the ratings of others (why not include clients, partners, colleagues, managers and direct reports to gain maximum feedback?).

The 9 roles are: Plant, Monitor Evaluator, Co-ordinator, Resource Investigator, Implementer, Completer Finisher, Teamworker, Shaper and Specialist.

iWAM
The Inventory for Work Attitude & Motivation identifies a person’s motivational preferences and attitude preferences and predicts how the person will behave in various job contexts, such as administrative, managerial and customer contact tasks.

iWAM is based on metaprograms – a model of cognitive thinking styles and measure 48 parameters.

PTI (Psychological Type Indicator)
PTI is a personality type assessment tool based on the work of Carl Jung and later by Katherine Briggs and Isabel Myers.

The PTI is a more recent questionnaire than the equivalent MBTI tool and measures the same four tiers of personality:

Extroversion (E) – Introversion (I)
Sensing (S) – Intuition (N)
Thinking (T) – Feeling (F)
Judging (J) – Perceiving (P)

The PTI is an online tool and results are normally available for download almost instantly.
(We however recommend that results are fed back by an experienced coach who will help you understand the results).
