Workplace Assessments

Assessments give us the information we need to leverage our strengths and mitigate our challenges. They help us identify opportunities to grow, benefiting both ourselves and others.

There is no one-size-fits-all for assessments. The right framework depends on the results you’re hoping to achieve, such as:

  • Improving team communication
  • Making intentional, data-driven hiring decisions
  • Increasing workforce collaboration
  • Investing in individuals’ personal growth
  • Diagnosing company culture issues

When it comes to workplace assessments, I like to say I have plenty of tools in my toolbox. No matter what type of insight you’re searching for, I am trained (and, in some cases, fully certified) to facilitate several assessment frameworks that will help you turn confusion into clarity and clarity into action.

Tools In trudy’s assessment toolbox

Everything DiSC logo

everything disc®

Everything DiSC® is a simple yet powerful model that describes four equally valuable behavioral styles: Dominance, Influence, Steadiness, and Conscientiousness. Everyone is a mix of all four styles, although we typically prioritize one or two above the rest.

Participants in this assessment receive their unique behavior map with personalized insights to deepen their understanding of self and others, resulting in a more engaged, collaborative workforce.

Working Genius Certified badge

Working Genius

The Working Genius model describes workplace productivity with six key contributions: Wonder, Invention, Discernment, Galvanizing, Enablement, and Tenacity. Each team member recognizes two of these contributions as their “Geniuses,” two as “Competencies,” and two as “Frustrations.”

Participants receive a personalized assessment identifying their Geniuses, Competencies, and Frustrations. A team map examines gaps, opportunities, and strengths. Teams learn to use the language of the Working Genius to improve both productivity and communication.

PXT SElect

Choosing the right hire is critical. PXT Select Hiring Assessments allow you to assess the match between your prospective hire, your culture, and the position you seek the fill.

Choosing poorly can cost a company money, momentum, and morale.

After one assessment, businesses receive up to 13 reports at their disposal that are specific to matching the applicant to one or more positions. These reports include leadership insights, coaching recommendations, and well-defined questions to guide your interview process.

The Five Behaviors logo

The Five Behaviors

The Five Behaviors® transforms teams through a powerful, approachable model focused on team effectiveness and productivity. This model is based on moving teams through five behaviors: Trust, Conflict, Commitment, Accountability, and Results.

Teams of 4-12 members take an anonymous assessment that results in both a Personal Development Solution unique to each individual as well as a Team Development Solution to improve interpersonal collaboration and strengthen alignment to gain team traction and momentum toward agreed upon results.

OrgIQ logo

Culture Health Scorecard™

OrgIQ Suite has launched with its new Culture Health Scorecard™, a revolutionary, living dashboard that transforms how organizations understand improve their workplace culture.

Businesses that use the Culture Health Scorecard will receive culture feedback across 10 key areas, along with features that allow teams to both measure and better sustain cultural health improvements with clear, color-coded metrics. Use the Culture Health Scorecard to compare culture across departments and sites as well as from a consolidated viewpoint to prioritize development and investment.

interactive team assessment

Derived from several books written by John Maxwell, The Leadership Game is an interactive team assessment that encourages input from everyone on a team as they take turns around the table.

Participants receive a facilitated gameplay session that allows the team to explore leadership and communication styles and gain insight on future priorities for culture, training, clarity, and more. Available both in person and virtually with a focus on either leadership or communication.

Amazing Partner.

“Trudy has also conducted workshops with our management group such as the DiSC Work of Leaders that has assisted us in understanding how each of our coworkers think, process, and work best. Between this workshop and the Working Genius workshop that she worked with us on, we have been able to work through disagreements more effectively and set up projects in a more efficient manner. I can’t speak highly enough about Trudy and the amazing partner she has become for our organizations.”
