05 Oct Why Assessments Aren’t Just Buzzwords
We love labeling: color, type, strengths, numbers, whatever gives a shortcut to understanding someone else. But assessments are more than labels. They’re clarity tools.
We use assessments with leaders and teams because they help you connect faster. Rather than spending years learning how someone communicates, or worse, miscommunicating for years, you can gain insight in 15 minutes.
Assessments don’t tell you everything. They tell you enough to reduce stress, skip misunderstandings, and avoid wasted energy and conflict.
The best assessment? The one that fits your needs right now. It’s not about fads, it’s about usefulness.
Leader Tip:
Use assessments intentionally:
- Choose one that addresses your current challenge.
- Use it in conversation! Not as a label!
- Revisit it when context shifts.
