Before you begin

What this is

Colour Compass describes how you prefer to work: the pace you like, how you make decisions, how you deal with people and detail, and how you come across to colleagues. It is built on a well-established idea from Carl Jung that people differ in where they draw their energy from and how they take in and weigh information. We express that as four energies. Everyone has all four; the profile shows which ones you reach for first.

What it is not

It measures preference, not ability. No energy is better than another, no position on the wheel is a grade, and it is never used to decide who gets a job or a promotion. You know yourself better than any questionnaire: treat anything that does not fit as a question, not a verdict.

How to answer

• Twenty-five short frames, four options each. Pick the one most like you, the one least like you, and rate the other two.
• Answer as you are at work, most of the time: not on your best day, not on your worst.
• Go with your first instinct. Nobody sees your answers; your profile is private unless you choose to share it.

It takes about fifteen minutes. Your written report and PDF follow straight away, and your tutor is ready to talk it through.
