Communication Optimization Assessment

Forty-two questions, ten to fifteen minutes. Thirty are about you. Twelve are about the people you work alongside β€” and the gap between those two is the part most instruments cannot see. Every question asks what has happened rather than how strongly you agree with something, which is why the result is worth reading.

Take as long as you want on each one. Some people are through this in ten minutes and some take twenty-five, and that difference is about how you are wired rather than how well you are doing. There is no prize for speed.

Your answers are confidential. Nobody you work with or work for sees your individual answers or your result. If you ask for your result by email at the end, we hold your name, your address and your result so that we can send it, so that a later one can be compared with it, and so that your access to what comes next works. That makes it confidential, not anonymous β€” we know who you are, and we do not hand it on. Answer honestly for the only reason that matters: this is a mirror, and a flattering mirror is useless. The gap between what you think is happening and what is actually happening is the whole point of it.

What happens to your answers.

Confidential, not anonymous β€” and the difference matters. If you ask for your result by email, we hold your name, your address and your result. We know who you are. We do not tell the organization you work for, and we never will.

Why we keep it. It is how you can take this again later and see what moved, how your access to anything you go on to use works, and how we know the scoring itself is calibrated properly.

What an organization is shown is the group picture, never you. Individual answers are never handed over, and any group too small to stay unidentifiable is folded into a larger one before anyone sees it.

Add your name and email and we will send your result. We keep it to ourselves β€” the organization you work for only ever sees group patterns, never you.

Your result is held against your name so we can send it and so a later one can be compared. We never share it with your organization. Unsubscribe any time.
