Free Individual Assessment

How well do you work across difference?

This free assessment maps your personal communication style, behavioural preferences, cultural intelligence and psychological safety — giving you a useful individual profile to keep. It won't show you how you compare with your teammates or where your team's friction points lie. For that fuller picture, you'd want the team version.

Section 1 — Communication style

How you naturally communicate

How you listen, speak, plan, decide, and handle disagreement — your instinctive personal style.

Section 2 — Behavioural preferences

How you work day to day

Your personal preferences around feedback, leadership, trust, persuasion and decision-making.

Section 3 — Cultural intelligence

Your readiness to work across cultures

How motivated, knowledgeable, strategic and adaptive you are when working across cultural difference.

Section 4 — Psychological safety

How safe you feel in your work team

Whether you feel able to speak up, be yourself, make mistakes, and raise concerns without fear.

How this works

1

Answer 59 statements across five sections. Takes 12–15 minutes.

2

Choose honestly — your instinct, not your ideal or how you think you should answer. There are no right or wrong responses.

3

You'll receive a personal profile across all four dimensions — download it and keep it.

Free · 12–15 minutes · No sign-up required

We use your email only to send your profile. At the end you can choose whether your anonymised answers may be used for research — entirely optional, and your name and email are never included.

Last step — a little about your context

Your scores are already calculated. These final questions take about 60 seconds and let us place your results in context — and, if you agree, contribute to research on how people work across cultural difference.

You told us where you grew up. If that is the same place, just enter it again.

How your team is going

Four quick sliders about your current team. Answer on how things actually are, not how you would like them to be.

Your combined profile

You're on the map!

Here's your cultural communication profile across both frameworks.

What to do with this
1
Reflect before you share
Read your profile with curiosity, not judgement. These are tendencies, not fixed traits. Notice where it rings true — and where it surprises you.
2
Share it with someone you trust
A manager, a peer, or a coach. Ask them if your profile matches what they observe. The gap between self-perception and how others see you is often where the most useful insight lives.
3
Pick one thing to work on
Look at your lowest CQ dimension or your dominant conflict pattern. Choose one concrete behaviour to try differently in the next two weeks. Small changes in awareness compound quickly.
4
Get your team to do it
One profile is interesting. A full team map is transformative. When everyone's data is in the same picture, the friction points, blind spots, and collaboration opportunities become impossible to ignore.
What this means for your team

Your individual profile tells you how you naturally work. The real insight comes when your whole team maps their styles together.

Where are the friction points? Who sits furthest apart in communication style? Who has the cultural intelligence to bridge the gaps — and who might need support? These are questions that only emerge when you see the full team picture.

Powered by AI

The full team tool goes far beyond this free assessment. Every team member completes the same assessment, then our AI analyses the entire group — mapping friction pairs, identifying where communication styles clash, surfacing cultural intelligence gaps, and generating a detailed written report with specific recommendations for how your team can work better together. It is the difference between a snapshot and a strategy.
