A tested and scientific approach
Psychometric assessments go through a rigorous design and validation process to measure aspects of people’s beliefs, feelings and behaviours reliably and objectively.
Dive deeper than engagement surveys
Psychometrics are different to engagement or other surveys which are designed to offer a feedback mechanism and do not normally go through the same rigorous process. Rather than asking people to “tell” the organisation what they think and how they feel, psychometrics assessments aim to objectively measure the underlying thoughts, feelings, and behaviours.
Example questions from our Collective Advantage psychometric include:
My manager places high importance on making everyone feel included in the team
People often complain about poor collaboration in the organisation
I don’t express my views candidly when I know others have strong views that are different to mine
Mistakes are always seen as opportunities to learn by others in the team
Established benchmarking data
Insights from our psychological safety psychometric show that:
- 43% say people are extremely cautious because they are afraid to make mistakes
- 62% say they rarely speak up and share their honest opinions in front of senior leaders
- 43% say discussions are dominated by a few voices that prevent others from being heard
